I'm asking everyone to not post anything today.

I do not feel like sitting here reading posts today.

So, if you all would be kind enough to stop posting for 24 hours, I won't have to "play catch up" tomorrow.

Thank you so much.

I knew you would all understand.

They still make them. I never considered buying one though, because they are not American made.

Alitos are made in The Yukon.

"Why are you such a jerk"?

"Pull your own finger asshole, I'm busy".

"Don't you have anything better to do than to ruin my day, asshole"?

I know they don't sound like compliments, but they are actually expressions of love and gratitude, disguised as normal every day polite conversation.

It's a regional type of thing, like a dialect.

so thanks for the video!

Did I ever tell you that I wrote some song lyrics once?

The lyrics are great, but I have not been able to get a band to write the music for the lyrics. They all refuse to until I change the title of the song. They all tell me that the title is too long.

I tell them they are full of shit, they are my lyrics, and I'm not changing the title.

The title is: "Waiter? WAITER? There's something wrong with my goddamn tuna sandwich platter. It smells like the doorknob to the men's room on a tuna boat. Can't you guys even make a fucking tuna sandwich right"?

The same way that whenever I go to buy condoms, I loudly ask where the "Magnum" condoms are located. Then I buy 3 dozen of them and say "Gonna be a good weekend".

Then I go home, start crying, throw the magnum condoms away, go online to a pharmacy website, buy just 3 of the extra small size condoms, and it takes me 10 to 15 years before they are all used.

I apologize for trying to deceive everyone.

I tell men if theirs are different colors than what I described here, it might indicate a vitamin deficiency.
