-This Rogan - Alex Jones podcast is him at his best. Great entertainment. Not surprising because he's not stoned to bejebus.

-350k BTU flame thrower fire pit is up and running. Just in time for real fall.

-Enjoying Empire of the Summer Moon, just wild this stuff was going on at the same time Lincoln was President. Comanches were bad mofos.

-Stoops with the Cal/BCG, "I haven't seen him today" re Terry. That's no good.

-We've serviced several "monkey houses" over the years, trust me, you don't want one. Disgusting. Get a dog.

My daughter asked for a monkey for her birthday. I thoroughly enjoyed reading an article to her about the problems with that.

Biggest issue in my opinion: those effers live for 20-40 years, and they do not entertain themselves. So unlike that 11 year old dog you have that has no issues chilling for an afternoon alone at the house while you go to a football game, your monkey is going to develop psychological problems and tear **** up. And by the way, this is going to go on for the next 30 years.

This is a huge issue with many types of exotic pets. I grew up in a house which raised exotic parrots. They have all the emotional needs and psychological issues of a human, albeit a completely irrational human who thinks nothing of biting your hand with such force that it can fracture a bone, or your face in an attempt to rip off your nose or ear. I therefore do not recommend parrots as household pets.

We adopted a parrot when I was younger, his name was Sparky. He belonged to an old lady that died, so her daughter kept the parrot for a while but it kept attacking her kids (who would antagonize the poor bird when it was caged up).

That bird was cool as hell on one end of the spectrum. He could say several words, perform tricks, and whistle songs. The other side of him though, was awful. He'd get mad and back up to the edge of his cage a try to squirt **** on you, he'd bite skin off your fingers if you got too close when he was in a mood, yell and squawk ridiculously loud when he wanted attention (all the time), and even attacked our cat and dog sometimes.

Exotic pets are really never a good idea for a common household.

Yeah, I'd love to have a monkey that could do neat and perverse tricks (flip people off, grab boobs and laugh, rub its genitals in front of people, etc), but I read an article saying they are hard to train despite being intelligent, so do not adopt just for the tricks.

-Criticism of Terry's play is fair and warranted, but I'm still putting some respek on his name.

-SoloStove Yukon is the real deal. Shew. Throws out a ton of heat with limited smoke. Easy clean up with nothing but ash. Burned on my wood deck for 5+ hours and never felt the slightest amount of heat below it. Highly recommended. Only "complaint" is it rolls through logs once it gets going. I mean, mows them down. Pretty impressive tbh.

-A real perk of remote working is eating at home everyday rather than dropping money on some fast casual garbage. Another is not dealing with office politics. SHERRY IN ACCOUNTING THAT YOUVE ONLY EXCHANGED PLEASANTRIES WITH THINKS YOU'RE A CONCEITED JERK SO JUST BE MINDFUL THE NEXT TIME YOU GRAB A SOFT DRINK AND ASK HER HOW SHE'S DOING. F all that noise.

-Worship this forecast after today.

-We could really use a bye week. We desperately need Q and Smoke back. Those are two we just couldn't really afford to lose IMO.

-We'll inexplicably play better Saturday though. Might even be "in it" late in the 3rd quarter. Each week is a new spin at the roulette table this season IMO.

-Need Virginia Tech to do SOMETHING Saturday for Christ's sake.

-Does anyone have any credible, firsthand ghost stories they'd like to entertain me with? Went out to Waverly a few times in high school but never had the balls to go inside. I've been in some old buildings downtown that have creeped me out at times, but have never seen anything. Probably because ghosts aren't real, I guess.

-Haven't had a smoke since August 2016 but am going through a little stint here where I could burn a pack in a single sitting. Miss those disgusting bastards sometimes, man.

Lets see, have to clean up **** because of them, raise them for 20-30 years, they tear stuff up and break ****, masturbate, messy as hell. Damn, might as well tell the Mrs. instead of a GD monkey, lets just have another kid. At least you get tax write offs and such.

Got a kitten in July after we put down my GF's 20+ year old cat back in February. Was worried about the 10+ year old Pekingese my live-in GF also brought to the relationship picking on the kitten, but that fear was quickly allayed because the kitten (who we named Charlemagne Quicksilver, or Charley Q for short) started picking on the Pekingese (named Dot) after the first week, attacking her when she walked or even moved. Dot would snap and bark at her, but Charley Q was way too quick. We had resorted to hiding Dot under covers when she was trying to sleep so she could have some peace. And that's how it's been for the last 3 months...

Fast forward to last night. When Dot comes in after being out in the cold and rain, to warm herself up, she will sometimes start running back and forth darting from the kitchen, to under the bed in the bedroom, to the living room, stopping at each location for just a second to let out a bark before taking off again.

Well, Charley Q had never seen Dot do this, and after a minute the kitten got so freaked by Dot's aggressive behavior that she puffed her hair out and started wailing, bawling, and growling, sounds we had never heard emanate from this kitten as she jumped from the back of the couch and backed down the stairs from the living room.

We didn't realize just HOW scared Charley Q was until my daughter pointed out that she had dropped 3 cat turds and dribbled pee along her path as she backed down the stairs.

Five minutes later, Charley Q found a towel laying on my daughter's bedroom floor and dropped a HUGE steaming pile, just evacuated her bowels. I should note that the cat had NEVER used the bathroom outside of her litter box, from the first day we brought her home.

Long story short, my little dog (who my new kitten had been picking on) literally scared the **** out of my kitten.

I mean - I’ve posted plenty of stuff for laughs over the years but ...that was a literal - manic rush post because I was rattled — that girl is beat down SERIOUS about getting one of those ungodly things ....

she kept doing the whole “look at this video!!” - “look at how cute and precious that little baAyyyyyyyuube is”......and my brain is hitting VERY close to maximum fight / flight overload. .....trying to process the emerging public health issues in an academic fashion / trying to finish strong on my first year here w/*my new employer * /bought a house and trying to Move in 2 weeks /keeping an eye on and directing 2 daughters about to finish HS — and she’s trying to let a wormy little fanged primate into my home — ITS IN MYTOP THREE PHOBIA LIST FOR ANIMALS!!!!!

Hell - I was so crossed up and disoriented the other night I told her that I had a dream where I had REALLY good sex with some woman that I did r recognize......and ......she’s staring at me very businesslike - and I realize it WASNT A DREAM.

I had semi-lucid sex with her and didn’t even remember it !

and when I did only parts of it came back —

HOW do you get your head filled to the point that you make SWELUUU.V like a Captain. and don’t recall it ?

(wasn’t drinking either - ). YOU CANT TOSS A FKING MONKEY IN THE MIX WJEN A MANS IN THAT KIND OF CONDITION

— ok - back tonight sometime — I got to go down there right now and enact the Monkey Embargo act and make this clear - I’ll lose it otherwise (who knows who I’ll wake up slogging next if I don’t?)

That actually looks kind of good in a Mystery Science Theater 3000 sort of way.

I had my wife watch some MST3000 episodes once. NOTAFAN!
