Although I am wearing a white windbreaker and black sunglasses...

... it does not mean I am one of you.



I've read too much Greek Mythology not to find that a little scary.

Maybe they thought you had food.

Scope Lorte?

And what kind of font is that? Whatever it is, I think the Daily Caller would've looked better using it than, ironically (given that hobos hop on trains), the "Hobo" mentioned by another Althousian.

maybe they thought you were a loaf of Wonder bread!

Surely somebody in this thread is going to quote W.B. Yeats so we may as well get it over with:

A sudden blow: the great wings beating still
Above the staggering girl, her thighs caressed
By the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill,
......
Being so caught up,
So mastered by the brute blood of the air,
Did she put on his knowledge with his power
Before the indifferent beak could let her drop?

Is it Texas or Neuschwanstein?

And is Meade Ann's Swan King?

wv: gamie. Swans taste like chicken.

Titus's favorite convenience store: Loaf 'N Jug.

Are all American supermarkets hidden with Titus sexual innuendo???

You can Kum -n- Go and ride hog at the Piggly Wiggly, afterwards pinch a loaf and stare at a jug.

It's the black swan that you don't see that's dangerous.

J. Cricket said...

Two swans coming to see if you have food is a little scary?! No wonder you favor the word candy-ass. You are one!

"Open Pantry" used to go by another name IIRC.

Is your middle name Leda, Ann?

If so, you will mother a race of demi-gods.

WV "unmacit" What some guy says to the EMT after being pepper sprayed.

Canada: Couche Tard.

LOL!

Canada: Couche Tard

That is an LOL.

So how would you ask somebody to go to the store? Voulez-vous aller a Couche Tard avec moi? might be misconstrued. ;)

That defines British Sea Chantey right there!

That's a food move.

joated said...

I'll say it, and I'm sure Meade will agree, you're certainly no Ugly Duckling.

Zeus would find you toothsome.

Swans paddling full speed at you means drop the corn sack or bread crumbs bag and run. When they saw no swan goodies, then their attack was aborted. Also, a male swan will kill another male swan over a female swan's loyalty. It is a good thing that Meade was not wearing his Swan costume today.
