Mounting the SSD from a failed HP Envy to get the flies off

If your SSD is attracting flies it’s dead, man.

Does the U.S. Navy have many ships present the Persian Gift?

“Greetings from the U.S Navy, please accept this rug as a token of our esteem”

Beekeeper’s Friend

Figured this was a Beck special, and yep, was looking forward to her regaling us with tales of lost bees and stung assistants, but oh weel…

Why Urban Meyer seemed to hold on for years or decades even when disproven

Well, he did win those games at Ohio State.

How would striking our moon be to a seasoned space traveler?

It all depends on the velocity at which they struck the moon.

Drowning mothers is okay in the Pit, but I wish it weren’t

The Pit has completely gotten out of hand.

After Miller filled it with water, it’s just been a matter of time before the drownings started. Soon alligators will spawn there by spontaneous generation and then we’ll really see the death toll climb.

Lying on noodles, pork and onions, what else do I need?

Umm, a crepe to use as a blanket?

Okay, it’s early, I just got up. But when I saw this thread:

My eyes and brain converted the title to “What sort of worship is this?” And the 1963 told me I would find some weird hippie, bead wearing, pot smoking ritual involving a deity that would appeal to the young people of 1963. (I turned 15 that year.)

No, it turned out not to be that at all. Have to confess I was a little bit disappointed.

Carry on. The day is young.

Do you consider your neighbors launching fireworks a transgender act?

No, I don’t think there’s an association between setting off fireworks and gender dysphoria. I do think, however, that the obsession with loud exploding objects is closely associated with brain dysfunction caused by vast amounts of testosterone coursing through the bloodstream, especially when enhanced by alcohol.

I saw the title of the thread: PKs in Football/Soccer Shouldn’t Count Towards the Goal Count for that Player and my mind immediately jumped to “They Allow PLAYER KILLS in Soccer these days? Hardcore!”

I obviously play too many online RPGs with PVP.

I actually meant player kills, but everyone interpreted it as penalty kicks, so I just went with the flow.

I am never playing sportsball with you. :wink:

Haha! RitterSportBall is like CalvinBall, but with automatic weapons.

There’s only two kinds: the quick, and the dead.

How does a marriage arrange to have a rarely used drawbridge opened?

I’d say gentleness, communication, and lots of foreplay is key.

Your first future in the MMP

My first future?

Internal Closet Doors - help! With pictures

I was totally confused by what an “internal” closet door would be. Is that a second door inside the closet that leads to another space? Or is “internal” modifying “closet”, so as opposed to an external closet?

And now I just momentarily misread

Question for you Lowans

I capitalized the L to make it obvious – I read the upper case I as a lower case L. The sans serif font strikes again! Of course it actually said “Iowans”, as in people from Iowa.

Wow, I hadn’t realized that I misread that title too. I assumed they wanted to paint the inside of the closet doors or something, which I agree would be a hassle, what with moving all your clothes out of the way, etc.

My first thought was the Isle of Wight.
