Random Thought Thread

Looking forward to Monday.

 

I had respect for Lenny Kravitz - liked his songs, they had merit.

And then he goes and releases this monstrosity! It’s immature, amateurish, poppy, and unbelievably lazy and repetitive!

 

Our technology has separated us from production of food. Compared to the 99% of previous How many of the people in this forum have seen a farm before?

 

I’ve not only seen a farm, I’ve worked on one. Hated every minute of it.

 

There are at least 3 songs lazier than that, and they all charted at some point:
WAP, Gas Pedal, and Versacci.

(Not going to post them, due to not being that evil).

 

But they’re not Lenny Kravitz songs as far as I know. There’s probably a million and one songs lazier than the one I posted, because there’s an awful lot of shit music around these days. But I’m talking about Lenny Kravitz.

 

There are rice paddies on my way to work, visible from my home office window.

 

I hear the lambs bleating in the field just behind my house. There's a reason we're happy to be separated from our food. Mutton might be off the menu for a while..............

 

Apparently, all dogs go to Asgard.

Cats too.

Odd.

 

Viking heaven/Hall of the gods.

Bifrost

Bereaved pet owners.

 

i miss living by the corner store thats open until 2am.... i need shortbread cookies to go with my tea.

 

Mom must have read my mind... She sent me cookies as a bday present!

 

i have a gas station down the street that i occasionally get drinks from.
but nothing beats the corner store where it had everything from gourmet cheeses to mochi.

 

Me this morning, calling the doctors at 08:00 on the dot (as instructed for the best chance of getting an appointment):

Doctors: Thank you for calling Thornton House medical centre. You are third in the queue... ring ring, ring ring... beepbeepbeepbeep

Me: What the fuck? (Redials)

Doctors: Thank you for calling Thornton House medical centre. You are twenty-seventh in the queue...

Nearby inanimate objects were in serious danger of being battered to death!

 

Nothing incredibly exciting, but this is a much simpler look which is much closer to the original tiger stripe uniforms.

Not bad at all.

 

Call be sceptical but I’m convinced the quality of SD broadcasts has been downgraded in recent times in order to make HD look better. No way was the difference between the two this noticeable when HD first came on the scene.

 

Not important but borderline spooky. I've been pondering buying a new pickup truck as a bucket list item; never had one, don't need one, just want one. So last night I went on one of the online sites, found the make and model I liked and could afford. . . . This morning -- I am not making this up -- as I went to leave home for the gym, I stepped out to find the exact truck, make, model, and even color, parked in front of my house. No one around, and this is not a neighborhood with random trucks, and none of my neighbors have one. Just a shiny new truck, all alone in the morning sunshine. I took a picture of it with the house behind it, just to prove to myself that I'm not crazy -- at least in that sense. When I got back the truck was gone.

I have a bit of witness testimony in that I was talking about the truck to my wife last night and she was as intrigued as I when I sent her the photo this morning.

I want to believe it's a sign, no, a damned memo, telling me to go ahead with it. But probably that's just crazy talk.

 

Just Dooo EEeeet!!

 

It's a sign...from the universe!
