Another vid spam...but OMG. This. Is. Hysterical.

This just isn't right...but it's funny as hell. And definitely not for small kids.

It's time for your Laugh of the Day!!!

Licking and slurping and crunching....they make the best things to eat.


LOLOLOL  It's surprisingly apropos! And the combos work!!

AH! AH! It's a reality whose time has come to climb outta the closet and into the mainstream. It's only taken over FORTY FREAKIN' YEARS. But that's okay....good wine takes years, too.

Has everyone heard of the latest kurfluffle, SurveyFail? I just spent a while catching up on it through various links to blogs, posts on lj & dw....what utter asses those so-called researchers are. My favorite is this post:

I ADORE this:

Kruger and Dunning are interested in whether, below a certain level basic competence, it becomes very difficult for people to improve their skills - because they are, in fact, too incompetent to be able to tell the difference between competence and incompetence in the first place.

OMG---words can't express the love I have for that. Love, utter, utter, love. *love*

here's some more linkage:

Plenty of individual people have wonderful posts on their journals/blogs, you'll have to find them by following links :-)

I've already done my good deed for the day.... Driving back from dropping my daughter off this morning, there was a work van stopped just inside my street. Next to it was a turtle in the road. I braked like crazy and got out to see if it was injured...nope. The work guys were just looking at it, sheesh. Asked me if I were going to make turtle soup out of it, HA. Told me I'd better watch out cuz it's a snapper, (well DUH). I think I must have had them really confused: here's this fairly nicely dressed middle aged woman hops out of an upscale SUV, and like a pro, whips that 12"-15" snapper up by the tail and plops him in the back of my vehicle to haul home. LOL

We have an area in the far back of our property that's rather wild-ish, and there's a huge ditch running between the properties on our street and the ones behind us on the next one, about 10 foot or so in depth. Because of the tremendously high water table here (one reason why no one has basements) all properties have ditches along all 4 sides, mostly shallow ones, for water run off, but in some case, like the rear one of ours, it's deep. And it'll fill up when there's a lot of rain, and stay that way like a creek.

Anyway, we rescue all the turtles we run across because the idjits around here seem to like to run over them (MORONS). Some of the ones we've brought home are huge...painted, snappers, all sorts. So today we have a new addition to the managerie :-)

Yet another instarec, because I'm just so in love with this storyline/series:

By waldorph, her  "A Beautiful(ly Illogical) Mind"  or  (√π233/hy7 #1)  series.  (Star Trek reboot)

It starts off AU with Jim in a different place than the movie (although not overly different) but it evolves into something that has an underlying truth to it for all characters involved, in the movie, in the story, wherever...and her character observations are phenomenal. She touches into some elemental truth buried in these characters, and combines them in an even more truthful way that defies easy description...at least for me.

Go forth and read and enjoy.
