Without any available material, I decided to go to the random fact well for this week’s SYW intro. The first tidbit I got from the first random fact generator I found on Google informed me that my brain is 80% water. And if that water is anything like the local tap I regularly imbibe on, my grey matter is so full of dangerous and toxic chemicals that it’s no wonder I come up with the disturbing garbage you see on this blog.
And now for our feature presentation…. this week’s Share Your World questions, as always, provided by our gracious host, Melanie.
Do you think psychic abilities exist?
I knew you were going to ask this question. Psychic abilities are a steaming load of BS…
How would you describe peanut butter to someone who didn’t know what it was?
Damn, you’ve finally stumped me. I can’t think of a normal or smartass answer for this question. I’m as frustrated as that guy in the Aaron Burr commercial…
Why does an octopus squirt ink?
MITZI: Mitzi’s octopussy’s, like, totally 80% water and squirts something else! Like, lookie while Mitzi totally demonstrates!
Oh dear…. sometimes we’re better off when the questions DO stump me…
And that does look like ink. Now I know where all my missing pens have been going….
Who are two of today’s greatest entertainers in your opinion? (can be actors, musicians, singers etc)
I don’t keep up on pop culture at all anymore, so I have no opinion here. I do like comedians, so here are two of the funniest entertainers I know in a battle of witty one liners…
HUNG LO: Man who go through airport turnstile sideways going to Bangkok!
HUNG LO: Hmmmm. Tough crowd, must all be in bathroom. Maybe wasn’t good idea to serve my genuine canine dragon balls to audience. OK fox, knock ’em dead.
MR. FOX: ………………………………
HUNG LO: Well played, fox. Comic timing is impeccable. (Retrieving cleaver from his sumo thong) I wonder what vulpine chop suey taste like?
Please feel free to share a moment of gratitude in your life!
I am grateful that I still have 20% of my brain that hasn’t turned to mush yet…
the peanutbutter question was darned good… we still ponder about an answer……
It’s…… it’s……. peanut butter! That’s what it is…
How to describe peanut butter? Probably easier than trying to describe the color blue to a blind person! That scene of the water was pretty impressive – got a swimming pool there!
Fortunately for me, the cul-de-sac swimming pool was from the archive and happened two years ago. That happened while I was at work, and I had to drive through numerous rivers like that to get home!
Oh, and best yet….. just six hours later, that street was dry as a bone!
MMMMMMMMMMMM mush.
Politicians are the greatest entertainers. I laugh at them even though they’re not trying to be funny.
The Dan Quayle Rule. Which was applied to the extreme the last few years…
Thank you E.S. for Sharing Your World!! AARON BURR!! I guess the D.J. with the witty question didn’t ever study ‘phonix’ (that was spelled phonetically you know) in school did he? LOL Poor actor who is family but whose name escapes me even though you thoughtfully provided it. I have snagged the crickets sound loop for future use, I hope you don’t mind. I often get those things playing in my background too…. Have a great week Bill, and I’m glad the water on the brain hasn’t backed up and that you didn’t have to swim home again..
They ain’t my crickets, so you can steal them all you want. And you’re free to take the worm that somehow got into my computer room as well!
That’s one adorably cute pink tumor.
It’s a good bet that’s the first time that phrase has ever been uttered…
“Vulpine chop suey”? Hung Lo, you go too far, sir. Save Mr Fox!
Mr. Fox needs to save himself. Why can’t he just cry for help?
In a world full of TOO MUCH NOISE (most of the time), Mr. Fox’s silence is refreshing if not occasionally frustrating. My vote is for him – his silence is as golden as Hung Lo’s spray paint. I remember that flood in your cul-de-sac; the classic “too much of a good thing”.
Pam
That was one of TWO floods that summer, both happening right before I had to drive home from work! Poor Rainy missed both of them while she was stuck inside…
Peanut butter. The taste your dog REALLY loves!
And also mice! It’s what we used to bait traps when I was a kid. The whole cheese thing is a huge myth…
