    Quite a lot of welsh insults rely on breaking wind or anatomical elements,  so I won't put them here 

    Sheep farts... funny.

    Will you be listing those welsh insults elsewhere? Just asking for a friend...

    Really...

    I do have friends... 

    Real ones too... not just pineapples with googly eyes glued on them.

    Okay, mostly pineapples... but still...

    Complaining non-complaint:  Being without an automobile makes getting heavy or numerous items from the grocery store problematic.  Many trips are required.  I tempered the problem by making arrangements with one of the store employees to drive me and my groceries home.  I walked to the grocery, picked a big cart instead of a small cart, filled it up with heavy and numerous items (stocking up for winter) and got a ride home plus a strong handsome lad to manipulate the bags into and out of the car and even into my kitchen.  Very appreciative tip given.  Now for several months all I have to go the grocery for are consumables like bread, eggs, salad and milk.smiley

    Unfortunately, it's blown my budget for the month.  frown  Perhaps next month I'll finally get into the black again.

    read that Elizabeth I was a cusser. and henry viii

    she was one ruler who got to die of natural causes?

    Most of them died of natural causes - the exceptions I recall: Charles I was beheaded, Willaim the II (accidentally) shot with an arrow, Richard III died in battle, the prince in the tower (allegedly) murdered, Edward II done in with a hot poker.

    I always mess up English history... like with with Charles the first, I alway think he died from a really bad shaving mishap... William the second fell on an arrow while running with it (it’s why me mum always said “no running with arrows in the house!”), Richard the third was killed by a rose bush, and Edward (the II) Of Carnivores was beaten to death with a toaster in the bathtub (electricity hadn’t been invented yet)... 

    Which monarch was mauled to death in their sleep by penguins?

    Never mind...  that was something else... I was thinking of U.S. president Franklin Pierce... who after leaving office faded into obscurity and took up alcoholism and penguin wrestling as a hobby... apparently on the night of March 4, 1857, in a drunken haze he wandered down to the penguin pens and unlocked them so he could go inside and shout biblical quotes at them in latin... something he was prone to doing even when sober... shortly after that, he wandered inside his home and fell asleep on the dining table where the attack occurred.  His death led to the state of Massachusetts banning penguin wrestling and the state of New Jersey adopting it... Where it still flourishes today, albeit mostly in seedy back alley penguin wrestling dens.

    Did you know that in their youth, both Abraham Lincoln and Benjamin Disraeli were both avid penguin wrestlers? Lincoln would abandon it in favor of vampire hunting in 1835… but not before one last professional penguin wrestling match in Paris where he met Disraeli who was working on his novel “The Penguin Wrestler” (later renamed “Contarini Fleming”), a novel described by Disraeli as “the psychological autobiography of a penguin wrestler”... Although they parted ways after the competition, they remained friends until Lincoln fell on a bullet in 1865... it is said that amongst his many quotes was the one he partly borrowed from Lincoln... “Action may not always bring happiness, but true happiness is a greased up penguin”.

    I love history.

    What the heck is it dispensing on the side? Looks like no frills pop tarts... don’t eat no frills toilet pop tarts on the toilet...

    That dispenser needs a keyboard... but I think the cats would still hack it... 

    Percy Jackson the play hu?... and they laughed at the Simpsons “Planet of the Apes- The Musical... staring Troy McClure”

    Everything is a play now thanks to Spider-Man.... Waiting for “The Meow Mix Commercial- The Musical”...

    McGyver seems to have a particularly keen interest in penguins.  Hmm...

    Maybe we should convince DarkSeal to develop and offer a sexy and "anatomically enhanced" DAZ/Poser rigged penguin model for McGyver to enjoy! wink

    Its the historical significance of penguins, chinchillas and kangaroos that I’m concerned with... those that ignore the past are doomed to watch the repeats... but... um... a scientifically accurate penguin would be nice... for scientific purposes.

    Just put in a new 2070 super and hooked up my new 1920 x 1080 monitor, about to lose my mind right now. As soon as I hit the windows logo screen, the whole screen artifacts, and the display goes to some tiny resolution that puts scroll bars everywhere. Assuming that means the driver crashed. Tried to open up nvidia control panel, that crashed.  About to use DDU and go back a few driver versions to see if it fixes. I am kinda pissed after paying 1300 for nice new equipment and it not working. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

    Grrr... does this happen to anyone else using iOS?…

    You make a post, and the forum software saves what you just posted as a second entirely new draft? 

    So annoying... if you don’t check and just visit and reply to a post... 

    Sometimes it does that with a post after you made it, so after you post there is nothing in the text box, but if you come back an hour later, you find your post there.

    And while I’m complaining about the forum software, this is another iOS turdbunkle... You quote a post that is part of a long series of quotes, especially if there are pictures, everything looks fine as you are writing, but the moment you erase a letter, the entire text box jumps to the top of the quotes, from that point on, every letter you type will cause the text box to jump to the top or to what you are typing... so, say you write “cat”... C-jump to top... A-back to sentence being typed... T-back to top... SPACE- back to sentence.

    Its psychotic... or at least it makes me more psychotic.

    ...I'm on W7 and have issues editing long quotes (particularly when the break a quoted post up or have a log thread of previous quotes).  When I try to delete the parts I don't need (Again usually in deeply nested quotes) sometimes the "brackets" for the deleted sections remain and I have to guess which one (using that red line that appears) is the one that needs to go, otherwise I get a string of ("show previous quotes" but with nothing there and sometimes the wrong name is attached to what I intend to quote.

    ...I have a wooden penguin. It used to sit on the top of my telly, which one day back in 2002 blew up, however, even though it fell off, the wooden penguin survived with only a broken foot that was easily remedied with a bit of superglue.

    Never bothered to get a replacement telly though, so for now the penguin sits a bookshelf.

    Complaint: Expecting high catagory 2 to low catagory 3 hurricane force winds together with 10 or more inches of rain and soundside flooding Thursday night through Friday. Will probably lose power and internet connections for a few days.

    Stay safe and dry... Remember only turn to cannibalism unless necessary and use lots of honey mustard... people taste like chicken and honey mustard is pretty good on chicken... actually, that sweet chile Thai sauce is a lot better... if you don’t have that, you can mix BBQ sauce with regular mustard, that’s actually not bad... for chicken... for chicken.

    Also remember to save some electricity in bottles before the storm and fill your bathtub up with beer in case there is no water for a few days... electricity takes about two weeks to go bad, so don’t worry about it going bad right away unless you leave it out in the sun.

    Seriously, stay safe and let everyone know how you are doing as soon as you can... (seriously, I don’t trust these people... they’ll mutiny the minute they notice you are not here)... (maybe not... but they are a shifty lot)... (a bit dangerous I’d say)...
