August 20, 20214 yr Author Peak 80s right here. That's ~$1.5M. Never have I been so personally attacked. #ImagesYouCanHear You're actually happier if you don't get this one.
August 23, 20214 yr Author This post will not make much sense. There's a regular in my group of gaming friends who goes by Redeko. Naturally, I always refer to him as "Dorko," usually in the same intonation as David Lee Roth saying "Sit down, Waldo." One of the many idiot behaviors I get up to with said gaming group is making memes that are so many layers of in-jokes even the subjects themselves don't entirely understand them. Redeko works at a sandwich shop, owns an RE-20 microphone, and recently bought a new car and a 4K webcam (because those are a thing now.) I memes I usually represent him as a sandwich, because of his job: One of the other MicS members has been harping on the fact that Redeko IRL looks like a SoundCloud rapper named Yung Gravy and I should use him instead of a sandwich to represent Dorko: After completing the above two 'Shops, I made the mistaking of listening to a Yung Gravy song. The track that made him famous, in fact: It's not just that I'm old. Your music is BAD. I had to dig up one of my favorite hip hop songs of all time just to feel okay again. I am biased by having been exactly at the right age in 1991, but this is an entire genre and subculture peaking in one track.
August 26, 20214 yr Knowing someone with a bird (sorry, I forget what kind) that was also very social and loved people, I definitely appreciated the truth to this story:
August 26, 20214 yr My Aunt Molly and her husband Ken owned an African Grey parrot. It used to speak in Ken's voice - so when Ken died, it was kind of freaky to hear this bird speaking in dead Ken's voice. It is apparently a real problem; often a bereaved person cannot cope with a bird talking in their dead partner's voice and have to sell the bird. An African Grey can live up to 80 years. About 10 years ago a reporter for our current affairs radio channel (Radio 4) tracked down Churchill's ancient African Grey, which had ended up owned by a garden center. It must have been a slow news day: "Does it speak in Churchill's voice?","Well, not really. It's very old and doesn't say much at all", "OK - but Churchill was famous for swearing - does the parrot swear?", "Never head it swear". Basically summarizing the story - Churchill's parrot fails to talk.
August 26, 20214 yr Churchill's parrot was a macaw, not an African Grey (or a Norwegian Blue). Here's an article about the bird, who was 114 years old a few years ago https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/local-news/having-chat-churchills-parrot-114-13642592
August 26, 20214 yr A nice Blue and Gold Macaw. My Oscar (see profile photo) is a youngster, only 34 years old. 😁
August 27, 20214 yr Author "Remarkable bird, the Norwegian Blue, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage! " In the words of the late, great Bill Hicks does anyone not know where this is going?
