Compatibility should sometimes be spelled Combatibility



ME: "Maybe you shouldn't you put the water in there until tomorrow."

WIFEY: "I can't believe we've been together as long as we have."

When Idiots Talk



So I bought an iPhone yesterday. (Ain't I cool?)

And on said iPhone it has that feature they call Face Time.

It's when you call someone else that has an iPhone and you can video chat if you want. (They see you and you see them...very Jetsons like)

So I call up Hoag and he suggests we Face Time to test it out.

So I ring him back up. The video cameras start to do their magic.

But I don't see Hoag.

I see a sock puppet.

I'm talking to a sock puppet. Sock Puppet sounds like Hoag.

Hoag don't see me. Hoag sees Jim 'Ernest' Varney. Jim Varney sounds like me. (Why I have a Jim Varney mask is a subject for another time) (Why does Hoag have a Sock Puppet?)

Sock Puppet yapping to Jim Varney is riveting conversation.

Bloggity blog blog.



So someone scolded me recently because I haven't blogged in a few days.

So now I'm blogging.

Normally I blog when I have something to say or to share something amusing.

Today I had nothing, yet I'm blogging anyhow.

So I did a Google Image search on the word BLOG to inspire me. This was the first picture that came up.

Notice the white guy is in the front center?

And the Chinese guy on the left.

The climate change guy and the gay guy on the right (they both might be gay)

Obama next to them.

And then further on down the line some Indians, a few Europeans, and the usual mixed races.

The point of today's blog?

Chinese guys usually stand next to the white guys with everyone else behind them.

And the gay guys usually stand next to the climate change guys.

Wifey is the Word

So last night I pick up The Hoag on the way to Buddy Nite.

We are juust driving along when I spot Wifey driving in front of us.

Hmmmmm....what should we do?

I flash my lights. I wave. I call her.

ME: "Hey...I'm behind you!"

WIFEY: "Oh, I thought you were an old lady."

---

So we continue on our way with Wifey in front of us.

Her sunroof opens.

Out shoots her arm and hand giving Hoag 'The Finger'

I'm not really sure why she gave Hoag the finger. (Hoag thinks she might have been giving it to me)

The King of Hamburger

So last night I decided to cook a hamburger.

Big deal, right?

It was.

I've never really cooked a hamburger before (in the 1970s I did in one of those hamburger cooker thingies)

Some spices...some oil in the pan to prevent sticking.. A little of this, a little of that.

WRONG!

I put two burgers (80% lean) in a pan and cooked them to perfection without adding anything.

(A little Jack Daniels BBQ sauce to dip it in)

And then I tasted it. It was fantastic! I did the Snoopy dance. (not really)

I looked over at Wifey with a smug look on my face.

I just cooked a hamburger and it was great!

WIFEY: "Let me try a piece!"

ME: "Okay."

:::CHOMPCHOMPCHOMP:::

ME: "So how was it?"

WIFEY: "Tasted like a hamburger."

Paltrow Fever!



So my lady Gwyneth goes on GLEE and sings a couple of songs. Amusing. Clever.

But not really.

Then this very average singer decides to sing on the Grammy Awards.

Edgy.

Or is it lame?

It's lame.

But she doesn't know it. Her famous husband (?) must fluff her full of BS.

She thinks she's 'all that'.

But she ain't all that.

She is an actress pretending she is a singer.

Much like Jamie Foxxxxxx. (though he is an actor, not an actress)

You are an actor. You can sing a tiny bit with tons studio over-dubbing and a bunch of what have you. (Ever notice when Jamie sings he gets all street and baggy pants and rappier than thou, yet when he is in actor mode he looks well dressed and can talk normal?)

SHUT UP, JAMIE! SHUT UP, GWYENTH!!

You two are actors. Act, don't sing.

It's embarrassing.

The real tough part is that you both have just enough singing ability where the retards will insist that you are good.

YOU AIN'T!!

Go away! Shoo! Be gone!

(I just sang this whole post)

I wish he divulged more.

"There've been discussions, but I've been asked not to divulge anything,” Sheen divulged.

Magic Sponge!

ME: "What should I clean these doors with?"

WIFEY: "Use one of the magic sponges."

ME: "We have magic sponges?"

WIFEY: "The white sponges under the sink."

ME: "Why do they call them magic?"

WIFEY: "Because they clean real well."

ME: "So they're not actually magic?"

WIFEY: "You're annoying."
