The History Kid

They're called the throne room because wives stopped letting their husbands refer to their home as a castle where they're the king because they're not really the ones in charge and well what happens in the bathroom stays in the bathroom so it escaped the metaphor's destruction for that reason.

...sigh.  Got it, here sir - this is for you.

Anyway... Nice new Waifu HK

@The History Kid hmm...well, in that case I can trade you some spicy mojito lime chicken fajitas. Of course, they won't be ready until tomorrow because they're soaking in a delicious marinade until then. If you want beef though you're SOL because all the grocery stores around me are out at the moment. 

@RuthisianCodex you had my heart at chicken. 

@The History Kid well then, consider it a trade! BTW, these fajitas are one of my signature dishes. I also make crispy chicken strips that I soak for a week in a spicy blend of tomatoes, chilis, & spices & then coat them in a Cajun batter & fry them to a beautiful golden brown. Needless to say, I don't make them often but the next time I do, I will surely let you know. 

and a Crayola salad is a salad with many colors or do people actually eat crayons (I have seen weirder stuff)? This question sounds so dumb

It is an inter-branch joke.

oh, now I see. there are similar things about police officers in some countries of Europe, now I get it!

Very much.  I relate to Hawaiian-ish looking shirt-guy.

For what it’s worth I doubt Daru’s into athletics. Always wondered if he wore a ball cap for the same reason I do.

My hair is a bit too long for most hats, I end up looking stupid.

I can come join to ask you questions

@Seshi of course.

@Kazuto Kirigaya does this mean you're not helping then?  

@The History Kid I'm no good with history stuff, sorry.

Very nice. Where will you get it to be sure its authentic?

...from CMP.

I am kind of amazed the situation in Iowa isn't getting more media coverage.  I mean, I admit that I've been avoiding the "news" lately because it is all about politics but still.. I've barely even seen a mention of the hurricane(?) at the national level.  And certainly nowhere near the coverage of say, Biden and Kamala.  I didn't even hear about it from the "news" initially.  I had to hear about it from my brother where it is sort of local news.  He's just over the border about 100mi away in Janesville, WI and said Cedar Rapids was pretty much flattened.  Then I went looking for more information online on my own.  Sounded like a low-level hurricane, or one of our "Santa Ana" winds out here.  Hope it didn't rough you up too much.

Dunno why I didn't see this before, @efaardvark - sorry I didn't say something sooner.  The winds were about the same as a Category 3-4 hurricane.  Here at the house, my gear measured 104 mph.  We lost a lot of trees and limbs, two neighbors near me had large trees fall on their houses, we're talking healthy 70-80-90 year old trees too.  My phone lines are still out.

Not a problem, just glad to hear you're alive. 

You should be afraid to use it, the second you launch your first fish PETA will be all over that and PETA be cray cray.

Bring it on. I ain't afraid of their carrots.

Have you ever seen a head so pattable before? I haven't.

Indeed I have not.  Protecc the protecker.

I want one.  Now.

The true test of just what level of heck will break loose depends on the flavor of Mountain Dew & Doritos that are pillaged. For example, White Out Mountain Dew & Cool Ranch Doritos would be more 2nd or even possibly 3rd layer of heck, whereas Code Red Mountain Dew and Flamin' Hot Doritos would be more 7th layer of heck. 

Your point is valid, and a consideration that I had not made.  I will need to revisit the drawing board to see what the best method of execution is to accelerate the pillaging. 

Hamster wheels are the best kind of wheels. 

Though im no mortal

Washija!

Get some rest when you can! Sometimes I unplug from everything that's not actually too essential to the more important things. It's the main reason why I left a few social media platforms or took an extensive break from others. Keep healthy my friend!
