Black Friday

 Everyone likes Thanksgiving leftovers, right? At least, that's the theory behind our doing this repost of our "Black Friday" blog from several years ago, so we can continue to enjoy our tryptophan coma rather than working, thinking, or moving today. We'll probably still fart and scratch from time to time but, truthfully, that's not really limited to the day after Thanksgiving.

Okay, we hadn't planned on doing a topical cartoon today, but we can't resist commenting on Joe Biden's Thanksgiving address to the nation, in which he attempted to quote the Bible and said "we can proclaim a palmist, with a palmist who wrote these following words..."

The actual word on his teleprompter was "psalmist," which the lifelong Catholic has apparently never seen nor spoken aloud before.

  1. Yep. Seen that face on an infant's mug just before the diaper needed changing. "Second childhood" has come for Joe...

  2. 8 months tops before Skeletor enacts the 25th on ol’ Braindead Joe
    and KamelToe formally declares us North Cuba.

  3. That second cartoon -- oh gosh, Stilt, you da mastah! Good thing I wasn't drinking coffee!

    A thought popped into my head just recently. Wondering if certain Governors' final version of Thanksgiving directives would require citizens to put underpants on the outside of their turkeys.... (Why command it? Just because I can!)

  4. That Biden strip is winner - really cracked me up.
    Enjoy posting while you can. Things like that won't be allowed in Kamaltoe's Peoples Republic!

  5. You're often at your best when you SAY you're goofing off. That's interesting. I've known a few others like that; but not many.

    2020 is a strange year. It sounds like a downer & this news WAS for a while: Thanksgiving at home. I was counting blessings & being thankful. In doing so thought about a good man & great boss I'd had fully 42 - 37 years ago. We had visited them a few years ago for a NICE reunion; and had intended that again in another trip to Texas last March. That trip was canceled on day of departure due to COVID19. In fact it was Friday March 13th. Back to the main thread: So I searched to confirm the number & call; but found an obituary.

    Early this morning thinking about all this has brought memories of the five great years I was working with him and what all it lead to. That's in-turn spinning off more memories of people & things to appreciate & for which to be thankful. I can't think of any better way to describe an angel.

    If you need a nudge toward a thankful attitude this year may I suggest this: Label a clean piece of paper for listing each of these: Family; Best Teachers; Best doctors, surgeons, nurses; Best Bosses; Best Friends. Then it's easy.

  8. The Biden toon was hilarious. Reminds me of a similar scene in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" with Steve Martin and Michael Caine sitting around the dinner table. I was feeling sorry for myself having to work today, but that made me all better.

    Happy leftovers everyone.

  9. We need to lighten up on Joe. He's still trying to learn Latin, and is wondering what "stulte asine" means.

    ReplyDelete
  10. @ Jess: I studied two years of Latin in high school; for me it was one of the tougher subjects I ever encountered; but I secured the needed credits. And it fact it did come in handy. Now many decades later, THANK YOU. Thank you so very much for indirectly leading me to a website where I learned in Latin how to say "Dumber than a bag of Hammers" That could have been very useful; maybe it still can.

  11. I must be the most blessed person on the planet, because I couldn't care less about "Black Friday".

    Palmistry: Do we have a pool going yet with the date in which Biden will be made to step down?

    Thanksgiving: Mrs. Econ & I made a turkey dinner with the fixins for ourselves. It occurred to us that it was the first time we'd celebrated a holiday meal by ourselves in at least a quarter century. Christmas will likely be the same. And yet, we still feel blessed.

    Latin: I really wish I had taken it in high school when I had both the chance and the available brain cells.

  12. Crusoe was walking through a grove of gnarled old trees. He became aware that he was wading in a thick sticky mess rhat clung to his feet. He turned tp Friday and asked "What the heck is this I'm stepping in?"
    Friday replied "Oh that - its BLACK OLIVES MATTER"

  13. We play a poker game called "RIOT" where the five of spades and the five of clubs are wild. Black fives matter."

  14. Good Old Joe. Spoken like a true corpseman.

  15. Biden = Ruprecht
    Love it
    Be assured, I will steal that

  16. @ wr-104 said...the five of spades and the five of clubs are wild.

    I see what you did there. That's funny, and I don't care who disagrees.

  17. @Stilt, Gropey Joe and the silent "P" killed me. I'm so glad I didn't have a mouthful of a beverage as I read that!!!

    @John the Econ, if the Demo_Rats are permitted to get away with stealing the election, I'm betting that Gropey Joe will be ousted by July 21.

  18. Stilton, you should ashamed of yourself......for taking advantage of an addled mind like Biden's. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  19. OK, put me down for January 23, 2023 for the date of Gropey's 25ing. That gives Cackles 2 years plus 2 full terms of fun and games. Imagine 10 years of Harris. Imagine 10 years of Harris with dems in control of both houses of congress! Imagine and boggle.

  20. @Brie Camembert,
    Not a big fan of the Beatles (mainly due to their socialist leanings) but some of their songs do strike a chord, and after reading your post, I immediately thought of this:

    "Though I know I'll never lose affection
    For people and things that went before
    I know I'll often stop and think about them"

  21. The local insane asylum decided to take the inmates on a field trip to a baseball game.
    The head nurse was in charge, and told the inmates that they must behave or they will be taken back to the asylum.
    Her first order:
    Line up for the bus, nuts.
    Then, get on the bus, nuts.
    Walk quietly to your seats, nuts.
    Things were going fine until one of the vendors came by yelling "Peanuts".

  22. Also,
    the 'Black Friday' joke is pretty good

  23. @Gorgon Zola, I would have simply dismissed the notion of Kamalatoe getting elected to two full terms on her own, but that was before I realized the Demo_Rats will do ANYTHING to install one of their own into office. They couldn't care less about even trying to hide their theft of this one, so I'm sure they'll simply decide whom they want in the White House and do whatever is necessary to get their way. If Kamalatoe ever goes against her true masters, she'll disappear as quickly as did her primary campaign a year ago.

  24. @Readers- Well, what I thought was going to be a day off turned out to be a pretty regular day here at Stilton's Place. I enjoyed all of the comments above!
