Narr said...: OK, I watched the dachshund. I think Remy looked so guilty because he knew it was staged.; 11/9/22, 6:22 PM
Yancey Ward said...: Peterson and Posobiec are correct. I wish I knew this when I was 20. No one told me this, and I probably wouldn't have listened if they had- me at 20 was even more obnoxiously arrogant than the obnoxiously arrogant me of today. I can see it now, I couldn't have then.; 11/9/22, 6:34 PM
Pete said...: Thanks for posting these.; 11/9/22, 6:38 PM
Lurker21 said...: But even if he gets "bored of" corn, he'll always be the Corn Kid in his heart.

Jim Meskimin is the world's greatest impressionist. Here's his TikTok.

On the negative side, there's this:

TikTok's Chinese platform enriches kids while US version dumbs them down: report
"So it's almost like they recognize that technology's influencing kids' development, and they make their domestic version a spinach version of TikTok, while they ship the opium version to the rest of the world."; 11/9/22, 6:46 PM
Tim said...: Absolutely get married young. And have kids young. Been married 44 years come January, and when I look at my 64 year old wife I still see that beautiful woman I married so long ago. And we had our children when we were young and strong enough that the stress and lack of sleep was easily handled. Yes, we were poor for 10 years. But it just brought us closer.; 11/9/22, 7:10 PM
Lash LaRue said...: Good ones, but the innocent dachshund wins the prize.; 11/9/22, 7:18 PM
Saint Croix said...: oh shit Jordan Peterson is mad at me!

I think I got the Bible on my side

watch out for that blood pressure, dude

I found out mine was on the low side

Saint Croix said...: I should have married young but I was raised by liberals

I didn't even think of marriage until I was 40

started going to church

buddy of mine asked me, "Are you married?"

and I got a little defensive.

"No. And my brother's not married either!"

For most of my life I was brain-washed into thinking marriage and baby-making is dangerous and to be put off for years and years

kind of like that vet who cut the balls off my dog

they're trying to stop reproduction and shit like that!

almost everybody in church is married. It's married, married, married and married. Church is where married people hang out.

my mom's like, "Marry somebody your own age and adopt!"

how can you save the millennials if the only ones who are fucking them are assholes?

think about that, you fookin' Canadian; 11/9/22, 7:22 PM
Saint Croix said...: Instapundit is all

you can fuck a robot

and Peterson says I'm not allowed to fuck the hot ones

this is why I only follow Jesus

Liberal -- somebody who thinks gay marriage is fine but marrying a girl younger than you is evil shit

Humanity doesn't stop being bigoted, it just flips the hatred around every generation; 11/9/22, 7:24 PM
gilbar said...: Yancey Ward said...
Peterson and Posobiec are correct.

of COURSE they're correct! that's WHY modern society tells you that:
early love is puppy love
you need to shop (sleep) around for a while, before settling down

they KNOW, that the longer you wait to grow up, the less likely that you'll grow up.
they KNOW, that if you wait until your late 20's (or worse yet, early 30's) to start a family..
You WON'T make a family (maybe you'll make some kids*, but you won't make a family)

make some kids* and if you're a woman; not much chance of Those, either; 11/9/22, 7:41 PM
Curious George said...: Every Deomocrat and person under 30 should watch "The immigrant's point of view." A few others...Dachshund and Panda...were cute.; 11/9/22, 7:48 PM
Saint Croix said...: ha ha ha

that dog

caught again; 11/9/22, 8:08 PM
Dave Begley said...: #7 hands down! No bra and an awesome message with great voice and facial expressions!; 11/9/22, 8:08 PM
Saint Croix said...: I think I misunderstood what the Canadian was saying

oops; 11/9/22, 8:09 PM
Saint Croix said...: dog good

lobster man, you all right

(watch the corn kid for attitude)

and here's some Donovan for you Sunshine Superman; 11/9/22, 8:17 PM
Saint Croix said...: that damn Donovan video went all Lolita on me

shit!

tonight is not my night; 11/9/22, 8:20 PM
The Tangerine Tornado said...: The dachshund brought a tear to my eye. My beloved dachshund Duke, who passed away last week at the age of 12, would often be caught in similar circumstances, to our perpetual amusement. Although I'm certain he was never guilty a moment in his life.; 11/9/22, 9:02 PM
William said...: Jordan seemed a tad judgemental. Some guys have hit records or have signed MLB bonus contracts and don't want to settle down right away. Perhaps not such a bad idea for some guys, but Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis should have waited a couple of years before getting hitched...I think the immigrant's lament was some kind of parody, but who was she making fun of.; 11/9/22, 9:18 PM
toxdoc said...: I am convinced that pandas are really extinct. Pandas today are either CGI or little persons in Panda costumes. I'm getting suspicious of our dogs and cats, too. Be on the lookout for otters and baby elephants. And don't even bring up beluga whales. Our days are numbered, our animal overlords are coming but, some of us will make great pets.; 11/9/22, 9:44 PM
toxdoc said...: ooops. missing link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNTxq2v3jcM; 11/9/22, 9:48 PM
Readering said...: I'd like to see the curser get past that panda.; 11/10/22, 1:21 AM
John Holland said...: Cursing: reminds me of my Liverpudlian grandparents in a snit (without the cursewords). Their "public" accent was posh, or "All Dook'n'Duchess" as my dad would put it, but in private quarrels the Scouse would come out of the closet.

Although that fella is more of a Duchess than my Nan.; 11/10/22, 7:51 AM
Narr said...: That's sad, Tangerine Tornado.

Our Murphy is at least 13 or 14 but pretty spry for an old guy; he's only guilty of being the best one.; 11/10/22, 9:40 AM
