It makes sense

Killtheskyfairy comments on May 18, 2021:

I had that picture on my desk for at least a decade and at no time did I equate it with stepping on a Lego.

Diogenes replies on May 19, 2021:

@Killtheskyfairy I'm going to stay away from that one- but I don't think anyone should be "harassed".

If everything was different nothing much would have changed! :-D

"Get your hands off me. You damn filthy ape," said Melania the last time her husband approached her.

Diogenes replies on May 19, 2021:

Big question is, "Now that Dump has bought her, how much is he paying 'it' per day to stay around and get handled by the groper?"

Shitty cruise but great buffet

Killtheskyfairy comments on May 19, 2021:

I love it. Great meme of why these stupid fables don’t make sense.

Diogenes replies on May 19, 2021:

Yes, but we are not talking about one or two "fables"- the bible-book is full of them.

Have a nice day!

Yep!

Diogenes replies on May 19, 2021:

Ya, there are days when just stepping out into the world would cause that face.

Does it come with a warranty???

Druvius comments on May 17, 2021:

Like the Vietnam War joke: "For Sale, ARVN M-16. Never fired, only dropped once."

Are there running shoes with it?

Now that I am 110, I tend to 'think' a bit--- and also lie a lot.

Robecology comments on May 15, 2021:

@Diogenes...It says you're 83 which is 8 years older than me...and very admirable to have achieved. I would so love to make it to 100 - or 110 - or 120? what's your secret...besides keeping a close watch on the B.P.?

Diogenes replies on May 18, 2021:

@Robecology I hate telling the truth, dam! "I don't do that much." Ya, I have done it; but I think "Usetabee" is a city in Asia; "yesterday" doesn't count? Now that I am a geezer I have to do a driver's test every two years. Something funny happened last time. I was talking to a guy about things before this farce began. The condecending, fat-laby that was running the show said something like, "Now old people don;t forget to exercise 15 minutes a day." The guy whispered to me, "I skied all day yesterday.."

Diogenes replies on May 17, 2021:

@Robecology Ya, and I also don't exercise all day. What would be the point? If that's all there is, there wouldn't be time to live. There has to be time left over for a bit of sin: a slice of pizza or a pint😉!

It is better to be unhappy and know the worst, than to be happy in a fool's paradise.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 16, 2021:

Every single thing that can be destroyed by truth, deserves to be destroyed by truth.

Diogenes replies on May 17, 2021:

"Destroyed by truth", yes, I can agree with that one.

I think her and I might be soulmates.

Paracosm comments on May 16, 2021:

I don't see the problem? Ok, sushi and cinnamon rolls sounds like a disaster, but otherwise... Did she hit someone? Lemme tell you I'd be tempted. People are assholes to people in those carts.

Diogenes replies on May 17, 2021:

LOL😜!

I am going to make a post that will cause some controversy.

Interesting to me, domestic dogs can tolerate vegetable diets better than their ancestors.https://www.livescience.com/26513-starchy-human-diet-domesticated-dogs.html

Diogenes comments on May 16, 2021:

I tried to get a post off to you. So today who won, your team---- or the best team, Liverpool? LOL

Diogenes replies on May 17, 2021:

@Austin-Cambridge This/these lockdowns are starting to drive me crazier. I was already crazy enough- and I don't need the added help. I have seen almost no games this year- not even that one. Albion held on- and must have put on a good show😃!

Sneaky little shit!!!

Killtheskyfairy comments on May 16, 2021:

It’s one reason why I use almond milk. Cats don’t like it.

Diogenes replies on May 16, 2021:

I don't use much milk, none even in coffee. Do you like almond milk?. I have no opinion about it; I can't remember the last time I tried it.

A consideration! I see all these advertisements for these wonderful skin creams that will make a ...

Marionville comments on May 11, 2021:

A good diet, sufficient sleep, fresh air, healthy lifestyle, and above all...to be lucky enough to have inherited good genes, are the best guarantees of a good complexion with few lines and wrinkles. Expensive creams are a con, but as long as people have more money than sense they will continue ...

Diogenes replies on May 16, 2021:

Another "Keith quote😊", but I've actually seen it in a few versions. "Food should be a person's energy sourse and medicine- not their poison." Why would anyone injest every form of junk food, and then see the doctor for pills? Most people like nuts- and nuts provide healthy fats, which helps the skin. Agreed, all the cosmetic adverts are just "money-spinners for the cosmetic industry."

Willow_Wisp comments on May 15, 2021:

I'm working on a new purpose, I served all my old purposes. I'd love to live to 300 if I have purpose. Without it I'd prefer not to continue. That was the odd thing about moving out west a few decades ago, I don't know the native "wild" flora. I can and did consume lots of food from the forest ...

Diogenes replies on May 16, 2021:

It would be difficult to mistake dandelions with something else- but a major point, don't make a bad mistake. The best thing is to be with people who know what to look for.

Marionville comments on May 15, 2021:

Thanks for sharing...at times most of us enjoy solitude, it gives us time and head space to think and ruminate, but we also sometimes feel the need to communicate the results of our ruminations with others. We are after all, a gregarious species.

Diogenes replies on May 16, 2021:

Marje good point, and thanks for that thought.

Diogenes replies on May 16, 2021:

I had an uncle that lived to about 97. I really doubt that I would want to live past 100. Even now everything has a superficial feel to it. B.P. wouldn't be what it is if I didn't do a bit of exercise. I wish fitness was open, to talk to friends and use some of the machines. I do a bit of reading about all sorts of subjects. Diets do NOT work. The idea that a person will starve themselves for a few months---- and then get back to "normal" is just planing for failure. I believe that enjoying food is a better idea. Yes, cutting back on the meat and pints may have a different feel, but FRESH fruit and veggies taste good. A bear stuffs itself full of food-then it hibernates- well so do humans that don't care, they stuff themselves and then they fall asleep. I don't have all the answers but I know most diets are bull shit.

It's far too easy to get mesmerized...

Diogenes comments on May 15, 2021:

Being the dirty old man that I am, love that! And I believe "rapist" and child molesters should be hung! "Rape" is no longer any kind of humour.

Diogenes replies on May 15, 2021:

@phxbillcee I agree with you 100%. I don't agree with the remark about "rapist and harassers convention." I walked past a place, must have been a day care In the window were drawings of the pervert's rainbow. Gotta get 'em young and train them. But nobody dares to say a word about that!

Well underwear is certainly getting hotter! :-D

Cast1es comments on May 14, 2021:

Male designers and husbands want women to wear these tiny bits of vaginally irritating lace . Perhaps if men wore lace that irritated their private parts , they'd understand why wearing lace that scratches those parts does not lead to satisifying sex . Idiots !

Diogenes replies on May 15, 2021:

This is not a remark, because I am so "pure". It is just reality- when the package is already unrapped why put a string around it? There is no mystery left

Robecology comments on May 13, 2021:

The answer has a lot to do with our pro-Israeli policy. We've been sending Israel over $5 million dollars per day for 72 years. We set them up with hundreds of nuclear-tipped warheads on submarines. We - the USA officials - are supporting a radical Zionism. Here's proof; "Israel is the ...

Atheists for the concept of treating others well, nurturing the sick, being kind, etc. All the things the creators of Hesus wanted people to be.

Diogenes replies on May 15, 2021:

There actually may have been a Jeezus-dude who led a minor Jewish cult. I am going to have to read some history. I want to know at what times, all the miracle bull-shit was added to his ficticius bio.

Diogenes replies on May 15, 2021:

@JackPedigo You would think that after the NAZI genecide, that the Jews would have some empathy; apparently most of them, BUT NOT ALL OF THEM, have none. I knew a bit about the ass hole, Balfour, but I looked it up to get my info. straight. Arthur James Balfour, British Foreign Secretary, on Nov.2, 1917, wrote to Lord Rothschild that Palestine should be a Jewish homeland. That letter is named the Balfour Declaration. Didn't the fucking ass hole know that there were people living there, some for centuries? Were they invisible? Didn't they have tar and feathers, plus rope, for a public hanging, in those days?

I would rather live life than talk about it.

I really 'gotta' get with it, "that dosn't sound like 'Pete' Seiger." who happens to be one of my favorite singers and usually has a message in his songs. But that was a FANTASTIC song from Bob Seger! Big thanks!

Diogenes replies on May 14, 2021:

@Marionville Okay, Afrikaans is just a mix, but mostly old Dutch. His name, Coetzee, means Coet sea in English. There is a Dutch song about how the Zuiderzee was turned into the IJsselmeer. They built a huge dike in about the 1930s.Schiphol (sp) Airport is built on a polder. The name means "ship hole" Thank you for the quote, but I still see it as a platitude.

@WilliamCharles Don't care about their god belief, but Zionists: "Your land is our land, and we have the right to steal it."

That's what I call real magic, it defies all logic and reason, yet some folk actually believe it??

Diogenes replies on May 13, 2021:

That is good news. Right now I could use an honest lawyer--- and an honest judge. MANY times the judge is just as crooked as the lawyers.

Solitude is painful when one is young, but delightful when one is more mature. - Albert Einstein

Paracosm comments on May 13, 2021:

I think thats a learned trait for a lot of people, especially those who had trauma when they were young. Solitude became a coping mechanism.

Diogenes replies on May 13, 2021:

I certainly had enough trauma when I was a kid. Now, well past my best due date, I am a bit of a hermit- but I have a few friends. I don't miss meeting any more ass holes- the first million were enough!

Last night I watched the 1973 movie, Papillion, staring Steve Mcqueen.

brentan comments on May 12, 2021:

I really enjoyed that film! It makes me think of Victor Frankl's Man's Search For Meaning, how it can be found anywhere, and how it can help you survive against the odds. I think it all boils down to love, really.

Diogenes replies on May 12, 2021:

To me, the point was, when he finally won, it was so late in life that it didn't matter whether he won or lost- because he had "lost".

A local person must have pinned this quote, from the Agnostic poet E.

Diogenes comments on May 11, 2021:

Who is this poet? It isn't F. Scott Fitzgerald, but I could be wrong!

Diogenes replies on May 12, 2021:

@Fernapple Thanks for that info. I even got out one of my old text books out and couldn't find the name.
