Thursday Night Open Thread

Posted by on

Remember when it was okay to like Michael Jackson? Yes, it actually was at one time. I enjoyed a lot of the songs on the “Off the Wall” album, but most people loved the “Thriller” album. That album had a lot of hits on it, too. More than “Off the Wall.” Anyway, here’s one of them.

But what do you want to talk about? It doesn’t have to be anything about music or Michael Jackson or about anything in particular. Since it’s Thursday Night Open Thread, you choose whatever you want.

What’s on your mind?

Flingin’ Poo (Song Parody)

Posted by on

[High Praise! to Walruskkkch]

Flingin’ Poo (to the tune of “Waterloo” by ABBA)

My, my, they’re flingin’ Poo, you know they’ll never surrender
Oh yeah, they won’t accept their destiny in any possible way.
The playbook on their self
Will always keep repeating itself.

Flingin’ Poo – They were defeated, we won the war
Flingin’ Poo – Promise to fight us for ever more.
Flingin’ Poo – wouldn’t stop if they wanted to.
Flingin’ Poo – Knowing their fate will keep them losing elections too.
Flingin’ Poo – All they got left is Flingin’ Poo.

My, my, they tried to hold us back but we were stronger.
Oh yeah, but they, it seems, will never give up the fight.
And now they must all throw refuse.
Or else their base they will lose.

Flingin’ Poo – They were defeated we won the war
Flingin’ Poo – Promise to fight us for ever more.
Flingin’ Poo – wouldn’t stop if they wanted to.
Flingin’ Poo – Knowing their fate is losing elections too.
Flingin’ Poo – All they got left is Flingin’ Poo.

They know they must throw smelly refuse
Or else their base they will lose.

Flingin’ Poo – They were defeated we won the war
Flingin’ Poo – Promise to fight us for ever more.
Flingin’ Poo – wouldn’t stop if they wanted to.
Flingin’ Poo – Knowing their fate is losing elections too.
Flingin’ Poo – All they got left is Flingin’ Poo.

I found a list called “The 25 most popular icebreaker questions based on four years of data“. So I’m gonna post a few, and see what happens.

Your mission: answer the question in the comments with a good story.

If you don’t have a good story, you are encouraged to make one up.

What’s your favorite family tradition?

When we all get together as a family and oil our guns with Liberal Tears (now with bacon!)

Bad Timing

Bernie Sanders showed up at an event in Iowa, fueling speculation of a 2020 run.

Apparently Bernie hasn’t noticed the pay bumps under Trump. Sorry, Berns, but people only like the “share the wealth” message when it’s other people’s wealth being shared. Nobody want to be the other people.
