Good morning! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week! And for those that participate in Thanksgiving, I hope you had a very Happy Thanksgiving with lots of love, laughter and good food! I know I sure did!  So let's work off those extra calories from yesterday with some big ol' belly laughs or dancing! Whatever floats your boat! Y'all know what to do!

Happy Hump Day!!! Music and Open Thread 11/27/2019 C_K

It's Hump Day! I hope everyone has been doing well! I have been sick as a dog for a week now, doing better but still not back to 100% yet. Gotta hurry up and get there though as I get to spend the day cooking tomorrow lol. It's funny how at one point a person and their brother can make an arrangement that Thanksgiving is done at their house and Christmas be done at the other, so no one person has to do ALL the cooking both times but... it is what it is. I'm grateful to have my brother to spend time with. Anyway, down to business! It's Hump Day and I say we get it started with some good tunes, funny memes or jokes, whatever! I'll be on and off throughout the day being Little Man has speech therapy this morning and I have to get desserts made today, so post something to help keep me going! Haha! I love this song and video, so up beat! Has the kid from Tiktok that got suspended over something stupid and even has Barry Knox from the band Par...

SOMETHING TO ADD TO YOUR CHRISTMAS WISH LIST

Image
FOR THE HARD TO BUY FOR - HERE IS SOMETHING EVERYONE NEEDS !! Sleep Tracker Apps Record Farts And I’m Laughing So Hard I’m Sweating We’re all grown-ups here with adult sensibilities and mature senses of humor, right? Right. We all appreciate a more refined joke than merely a video of someone losing their balance on ice or bumping into a door frame, right? Mhmm, yes, quite, indeed. So of  course  we wouldn’t laugh at something as uncouth as...  gasp ... a  fart  joke. Egad! Just kidding, farts are hilarious always. That’s why whoopee cushions and fart machines are still around! Because they’re never not funny! NEVER! And now, thanks to rapidly ever-improving technology, we have a whole new way of appreciating flatulence. Sleep tracker apps. You’re probably familiar with these already, I think they even come automatically programmed into most smartphones now. These apps use the microphone to track your sleep pattern, when you’re tossing and turni...

FRIDAY !!!

Hump Day Music/Open Thread - 11/20/2019 C_K

Hey all, it's... I don't know how much I'll be on today, if at all. I'm sick as a dog battling an upper respiratory infection. Anyway, have fun sharing music, memes or whatever you'd like to share! The fun must go on!

The Attack of the Not-Lady-Bugs. . . . .

Image
Happy Sunday everyone-- I'm just betting everyone is wondering "what's happening in Kentucky today?" This is what's happening in Kentucky today: These are NOT ladybugs. . . . I remember loving ladybugs.  I even had a rock as a kid that I painted as a ladybug. . . . What is happening in Kentucky is the invasion of the doppleganger ladybugs, the fake ladybugs, some kind of gawd-awful beetle that looks like a ladybug.   They are everywhere...... Even  Nick, my bug man, can't get rid of them. He says they'll be gone when it gets colder. He says they're everywhere. He says lots of things, he just doesn't say "OK, They're GONE...." I somehow don't think this is just a Kentucky thing. . .  Any fun bugs and pre-winter infestations in your neck of the woods?  I guess I should be grateful-- at least they aren't SPIDERS......  :-)

Friday Funnies! 11/15/2019 - C_K

It's finally Friday and I don't know about you all but, I'm needing some laughs! So post music if you want, share funny memes or gifs, share your favorite comedy skits or whatever you think might get a chuckle! I logged on to FaceBook this morning to do my games like I do every morning and decided to scroll through my memories where I came across this little gem. I imagine that the ladies may get a good laugh or even say 'heck yeah' and if any of the fellas enjoy cooking (or rather doesn't enjoy it) they might have a laugh too! Once again this year, I've had requests for my Vodka Christmas Cake recipe so here goes. Please keep in your files as I am beginning to get tired of typing this up every year! (Oh, and I made mine this morning!!!) 1 cup sugar, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1 cup water, 1 tsp. salt, 1 cup brown sugar, lemon juice, 4 large eggs, nuts, 1 big bottle of Vodka and 2 cups dried fruit. Sample a cup of Vodka to check the q...

Good morning all! At least, I hope it's a good morning for ya! Here we are, yet again, at the midpoint of the work week!  I don't know how much I'll be on today as I'm still battling with a stomach bug my beloved daughter brought home from school and decided to share with me. *sigh* But I'll be on as much as possible. Whether I'm on or not, the party must go on! 😉

TO MY WOMEN FOLK

Image
Strange thing about Disqus or Blogger or any social media platform, you can never be 100% you are talking to a woman despite the username and picture of the avatar being female. Stranger too is that I have caught myself flirting with the ladies, not aware if they were single, married, or ....... lesbian. Not that it should matter, after all SNOWFLAKE is full of it. I mean, I pass myself off as being a handsome hunk of a senior gentleman, when I could be a less attractive middle age basement dwelling dweeb - I mean you just can't be sure, can you? So FORGIVE me if I have left names off the invite list on this thread because I was unsure of  your gender, or if I have posted an invite to someone who I assumed is female but isn't - but what the hell - I just wanted to say  to some of my favorite ladies, at least those whose names I remember off the top of my head quickly, and if I have forgotten you, I guess I won't be getting a stocking stuffer for Christmas from you,...

Veterans Day - C_K

Image
I hope everyone has had a great weekend! While the 'technical' weekend might be over, most people have an extra day off due to Veterans Day. Veterans Day, also known as Armistice Day, was first celebrated on November 11, 1919. It was the one year anniversary of the end of World War I. In 1926 Congress passed a resolution making it an annual observance. It then became a national holiday in 1938. In 1954, President Eisenhower changed the name from the original Armistice Day to Veterans Day to recognize veterans of both world wars and for the intentions to celebrate all military veterans, both living and dead, who have served our country. Veterans Day is not to be confused with Memorial Day though. While we do give thanks to our veterans on Memorial Day, it's reserved for those who died while serving our country, those that paid the ultimate price. I sat here for about an hour this morning debating with myself on whether or not I should do this thread. I'v...

Finally Friday! Music/Open Thread - C_K

It's finally Friday!!! I hope everyone has had a good week! I also hope everyone has an even better weekend!!! 😉 So let's get it started right, with what my great-grandmother used to call "toe tappin' music". I can still picture her sitting in her swing on the porch listening to her banjo music with those feet going a mile a minute. ❤

Hump Day Music/Open Thread - 11/06/2019

It's Hump Day! I hope everyone is doing well.  Since it is getting later in the year and closer to the holidays, things here will be a lot more hit or miss from me and I'm not sure how much will be posted from here on out. I'm not going to shut the channel down but, I don't know what else can be done other than a thread here or there. We've added new authors but so far, our dear Rachel has been the only one to post. I asked one day last week and got zero responses as to what people would like to see more posted about with the exception of the no-go topics, so I'll ask again. Excluding politics and religion, what topics would people be interested in seeing here? Is there anyone that has a high interest in a specific topic that would like to be added as an author? I'm a simple stay at home mom and there really aren't many things that I have a full blown interest in. I'm a paranormal junkie but I don't think that many people...

ESCAPE FROM POLITICS

Image
When Kat set this channel up it was meant for an escape from the usual partisan politics found on other channels: A place to tell a joke, post a fun meme, a music video, to discuss non-political topics, a place to drop in and say HI. Traffic has been low on all the Disqus refugee channels, even the ones that are using a different platform, but here it has been especially low - we lost a lot of regulars when the old Disqus closed down. A while back I posted an OP about funny jokes, and someone posted "Trump" and had to be reminded that, that was a political jab. I posted an OP recently about a nurse adopting a man with autism so she could help him get a new heart, and someone posted about "Medicare for all" - again making the posting political. The comment policy on here states: Absolutely no politics/political comments Religion is a no-go No drama! Though to be honest, anyone who wants to call me a SNOWFLAKE - I will look the other way, because I AM one...

Friday Fun! Open Thread - 11/01/2019 C_K

It's finally Friday! Who else is ready for this week to be over? 🤚 I think the great state of North Carolina decided to completely skip over fall this year. We went from a high of 80 yesterday to a predicted high today of 60! What in the world lol. Some areas, close to the mountains, were trick or treating and watching it snow! It has actually dropped 4 degrees since I got up at 4:30. It's finally cold enough to have the bonfire I've been desperately wanting to have. Maybe have an adult beverage or two or four! Sooooo, this is the typical Friday thread. Use it to chat about whatever, post music, post memes, post gifs or jokes, post about whatever you'd like to as long as it's within the rules 😉 **Quick question** I have a hard time coming up with threads as there really isn't much that I'm interested in besides stuff like the paranormal or weird documentaries. We've added a few more authors but as of yet, only one has posted and I imagin...
