Pretty sure it’s a reference to

I keep reading how Twitter is shedding users like crazy, but according to Musk Twitter is gaining users at a rapid clip. Elon makes mistakes because he moves fast, but like an Agile programmer he refactors quickly when things go wrong. I think we’re seeing the kind of iterative engineering philosophy applied to management of Twitter…

I was referring to him being completely whooshed by his New Lord Elon talking about rehiring Ligma Johnson.

In his brain this was a master stroke of “refactoring”

This so makes me want to prank call Elon:

“I’m calling for a Mr. Jass, first name Hugh.”

I assume that he’s fired the receptionists(or they quit), so he’s the one that would take the call.

Maybe Elmo Musk is what Elon turns into when you make him angry.

You would probably like him more when he’s angry.

Wise words. Perhaps he could also advise us on the benefits of basic self-awareness.

And also on the ways to get a joke about Licking a Johnson? Bet he’d be good at that.

Today I’d like to mention the hit-or-miss jalapeño peppers at my local supermarket. A full 3/4 of the time, the jalapeño peppers are as spicy as sweet peppers (?). I’m guessing that this is due to either weird cross pollination or some failed cross breeding to make them genetically more hearty as a plant. Still, every once in a while, the jalapeño that you buy are at full strength… and wow are they awesome! The last two that I bought were such full strength ones.

I had some left over chili-cheese fries where the chili was not that hot. On the reheat, I added the peppers (sliced) and put more cheddar on top before microwaving.

The effect was… note worthy? I don’t know if I have ever had polyps, but if I did, they’re gone now.

Picture Wile E Coyote riding a Six Flags ‘Runaway Train’ ride while holding up a little sign that says,

\< Yipe! \>

.

TL;DR Today I won the jalapeño pepper lottery…

I’m very sorry; thought this was the ‘November’ thread.

In the medical community we refer the effect you’re referring to as “wolf ass”. Basically for the howl it elicits from the patients. 😏
