Lube. Maybe some Aspercreme.

I have a clitoris - seeking support or general advice

Uhh, sorry, I don’t have any advise on that subject.

How can I kill calimari?

I then went in thinking “Calibri” was nonetheless some kind of animal, as in a pest infesting someone’s home, or perhaps armpits. Never dreamed it was a font…

Is the SDMB the only forum you know of which has a subforum “skin to the Pig”?

Either “Yes, that’s true” or I need to cut waay back on coffee drinking.

At least I thought of a new wallet as a gift idea for someone on my list.

Burying snacks at TJ Maxx

Why? Because you expect your next trip there will be so long, you’ll need snacks?

Lots of double egg jokes

These two eggs walk into a bar…

One of them was a shirred.

Omelette you get away with that bad yolk-- this time.


I’m surprised Trump doesn’t have a board game named after him

Some possibilities (spoiler-blurred since it gets political and this is not a political thread):

  • trump Scrabble: Yes, covfefe is a playable word!
  • trump The Game of Life: Crush your business partners and throw your political cronies under the bus and win!
  • trump Clue: Try to get a clue as to how to fix the economy and health care crisis before your party is wiped out in the midterms.
  • trump Candyland: Try to snort the most Adderall! Also ‘trump jr. Candyland’-- same gameplay, only with cocaine.
  • trump Battleship: Form the greatest armada in the history of the world against Venezuela, or some other small South American sea-border country that stuff can be blamed on!
  • trump Uno: As in, “I, trump, am numero uno”. Good game for those who are lazy or suffering from Dunning-Kruger Effect, since you just automatically assume you already won.
  • trump Risk: Let your business partners and political cronies assume all the risk, and you take all the profit and credit for any real or perceived success!
  • trump Monopoly: Eh, too easy to spoof.

Actually…

A review - spoiler, as bad as you think it is.

Ha, yeah, now that you mention it, I had heard of the trump board game.

I mean, why not? trump has slapped his name on just about any hacky, tacky thing one can think of-- steaks, vodka, fraudulent universities and charities, crypto coin, credit cards, cheap bibles, Chinese sweatshop manufactured apparel, etc. etc., ad nauseam.

With our knowledge of Epstein’s Island, it seems fitting that one of the Properties in the game is “Tropical Island”.

Only now, no one wants to admit to visiting it.

You should avoid landing on ‘Tropical Island’ unless you have a ‘get out of jail free’ card.

Whatever you do, don’t win second prize in a beauty contest.

Anti gift-wrapping services in Portland (OR)?

Now I want to know where I can get that in my area.

Well, they just rip the wrapping off any gifts you bring to them, and if you ask them to wrap gifts the just berate you.

Gluten-free frog in house in winter (how best to deal with it)

A tasty addition to a green salad!

Any way of making a cat you like best?

It’s alive! It’s alive!

Nevermind.

Teal Beyond the mundane!

So I misread this one because I misinterpreted it. A little explanation…

In this thread:
Mind blowing facts, from the Atlantic

One of the ‘Mind blowing facts’ was (emphasis mine):

Scientists discovered—or created, depending on your perspective—a new color named “olo” this year. (Those who have seen it describe it as a sort of teal or a mix of blue and green.)

So when I saw ‘Tea! Beyond the mundane!’ I read the exclamation point as a lower case ‘L’ and assumed it was a stand-alone post about the new color :blush:
