Omnibus Stupid MFers in the news thread (Part 2)

I knew a guy who was a bottomologist, but the less said of him the better.

The less smelt of him as well.

That’s kinda fishy.

“Candiru?”
“Gesundheit.”

You mention candiru without linking the column?

He was too busy trying to swim away.

Well, wouldn’t you be swimming away just as fast as you could…?

I wouldn’t get in the river to pee.

Would you get out of the river to urinate?

Hell, yes!!!

The commuter rail lines north of Boston have a lot of at-grade crossings but in several areas the tracks are elevated on an embankment or viaduct which bridges the level crossing for the cars below. On one line in my former home town, the embankment bridge is high enough at one spot for the road below to be level, but the embankment gradually diminishes in height for an upcoming at-grade crossing. There’s another street crossing midway in that stretch where there’s a below-grade underpass running under the embankment bridge, so both solutions in one package.

I wouldn’t get in that river even if they were throwing lit M-80s into it.

Still, can you imagine one of those ‘live game’ food shows featuring ‘native and sustainable’ Candiru appetizers?

“Tastes like fish sticks.”
“Mind the spikes…”

Reminds me of that old Tom Lehrer song. About Harold who was majoring in Animal Husbandry. Until they caught him at it one day.

Oops.

I thought his name was Hen3ry (the 3 being silent).

Without trying to look it up, I think you’re right. “Harold” didn’t quite ring true for me either.

If not that song, Hen3ry is definitely a character in one of his songs.

Never heard of this, so

I looked it up.

Turns out this description was of Dr. Samuel Gall, inventor of the gall bladder.

Thanks for the correction/clarification. Hen3ry was mentioned in the setup for We’ll All Go Together When We Go.

Had to come straight to this thread.

Lotta stupidity there. Especially among the crew.

“See something? Say something.” doesn’t mean that what’s seen or said is necessarily a problem. It’s the crew’s job, literally, to evaluate this stuff. Not kneejerk it.
