WHAT Has Made You Smile Today? (III)

Just seeing this appear next to a podcast I was listening to made me chuckle.

I think someone in marketing hasn’t grasped that FOMO doesn’t really apply to streaming and digital content. Maybe they should give you a small blue tick to prove that you’ve pre-ordered it: Then you’ll have the bragging rights of being a true fan who just couldn’t wait a week for it to be ripped and dumped.

I’m with you on missing it. Did a lot of sledding growing up in Chicago on a hill in the neighborhood. Also had a toboggan run about 15 minutes from home. In college at University of Wisconsin-Madison we used to “tray” down Bascom Hill on cafeteria trays. Was a blast.

Sleds and toboggans were a lot of fun , but my favorite has always been the saucer. Less control, plus spinning!

I forgot about the saucer. One time, as an adult, I came off a saucer, hit my head on a rock and was knocked out. When I came to, I had temporary amnesia for about an hour. Very unsettling to not know who or where you are. It was weird because I remembered that I lived in Los Angeles and could not figure out how I got to snow country (about 90 minutes from LA). That was the last time I used a saucer.

Funny that I was bitching about getting a good Mango flavor :rofl: in my second post. I think that was Walt and RF. Yup, sure was.

As I personally live according to a block universe, time tends to get a bit muddled. I better ask the Cattitudes! thread as to whether I qualify or not.

I can assure you that every alcoholic in the park has taken the message to heart! :laughing:

Did your local council place them, or is it a ploy to get free drinks for the park residents?

It’s probably the council. There’s loads of different ones on bins. This one just struck me as particularly funny.

We have plenty of those too.

This story reminded me of one flight I took on Saudia to Riyadh: I watched Final Destination 5 to pass the time and pitied the censor who had to blur all the exposed skin in the gymnasium scene.

Obviously all the blood and gore was fine for them.

And you need to be fully clothed when getting beheaded in the square

Of course. I never attended the beheadings myself as it was free time to experiment for the Unofficial Zymurgical Society.

Got my feet and calves worked on today by a friend who does reflexology. Gotta say, after 90 minutes of being worked on I feel great but very tired and wonderfully relaxed. She is someone I mix for so she trades me reflexology sessions for the two juices I mix for her. We both feel it is a win-win situation.
