What else are you supposed to drink a milkshake with? A bayonet?

I think you’re supposed to hold it feebly with both hands and sip on it as if it was likely to explode in your face.

Trump’s whole mouth area is so yellow in that picture that he looks like a hybrid bird creature; he has a straw in his beak.

Any second now he’ll turn his head around completely backwards and screech at someone.

I dunno…how many potential fetuses (feti?) are there in the average amount of ejaculate? Multiply that by 4-5, I guess. I stop counting after 3, usually.

I’ve got a sister and mother in Wilmore, so I pretty much know what’s what there.

Oddly enough, I’ve been lost in Wilmore. Which wasn’t easy to do. As I recall, there were only about three streets when I was there 30+ years ago.

Let the heathens spill theirs  
On the dusty ground  
God shall make them pay  
For each sperm that can’t be found!

Went there last year, and there is a TARDIS in the grocery store. Owner says it just appeared there one day.

Welp, that’ll be stuck in my head for the next two days.

About ten years ago I was out driving at 3 AM, as one does, and noticed a TARDIS in the parking lot of a somewhat famous burger shack here in Olympia that hadn’t been there before. It turned out the owner built it just for kicks because he likes decorating the property with weird crap (like 15-foot-tall dinosaur statues and cardboard cutouts of the mascot as various celebrities) but for a moment I was worried there were Sontarans afoot.

Alien Super Show did a quick recap of Watter’s “things men shouldn’t do”. Go to 9:38 in below video.

Alien Super Show is great btw. This particular clip is ruined a bit by the guest (the slime) being a bit crass.

Jesse Watters is driving down Rt 66 when his car starts making weird noises. He stops at a nearby shop and asks the mechanic to take a look at it. The guy says give him 30 minutes or so and check back.

Jesse walks into town and stops at a diner. Since it is very hot he asks for a vanilla milkshake to cool off after his walk. When he’s done he pays his bill and walks back to the shop.

The mechanic steps out and says Mr. Watters, looks like you blew a seal.

THAT’S JUST HOW MEN DRINK MILKSHAKES!!!

I didn’t notice the guest being particularly more crass than the others. I suppose they did have to bleep her and not the regulars. I think the bleeps ruined the clip more than the jokes she was making.
