Part of the application for admission to UChicago's Class if 2001 was the requirement for creation of a story involving a spork. I do not recall what I did with the spork we subsequently acquired on vacation, and would like to give it to our daughter, who is soon off to her 25th reunion. OR, does she already have it? So much trivia; so little time.
We have one of those! It was my mother's. We're long past the days of sugar bowls, but I can't get rid of it. Plus the metal is so old it may not be safe to used with food any more, but it probably wouldn't kill anybody...right?
Rub the handle repeatedly, with vigor, on a concrete wall or floor. Be careful to do it in an out of sight spot. Also do this during noisy day activities on the block. Once you have attained a weapons grade spork you will know.
If it was a clean one, that would be an option, but think of who we're referencing. Very, very unclean. Heck, the floor would buckle trying to get away from it/him.
Also, have you ever seen a real spork in a trash can, covered in cole slaw and baked beans and the remnants of barbecue on a Sprite-soaked plate with a couple dozen bees eagerly/angrily looking for their share? I'm not putting my hand in there.
Points for thinking outside the trash can, though!
If you look at the oil-market-futures 25 minutes before he announced his “two week….” Someone made a killing. My guess it was trump’s boys and bros. He IS making money. And looting ours as he kneecaps the USA further.
This comment may get me tarred and feathered, but I cannot fault Iran for collecting tolls. They are owed reparations for the damage caused by the unprovoked attacks. Tolls will be a much more certain source of income, rather than wait for the US to pay for their war crimes.
Is there a Nobel Prize for Humor? There should be, and Andy should get it, along with another award for Stating What Others Are Only Thinking Subliminally.
He’s hilarious but it’s unintentional (which makes it even more hilarious). But he takes himself and everything so damned seriously, it’s no wonder he turned to booze, just to escape himself. Now that he has apparently quit, he’s living on the edge, volatile, a white-knuckling dry drunk at his worst.
his cartoonish facial expressions, Elvira hairstyle, and totally embarrassing and angering actions and statements, he is a clown. Can't wait for some of his kids to grow up and write tell-alls. It will get ugly.
Funny, he NEVER makes me laugh. Wait…I think I laughed at the stupid suggestion he take that role, shortly after witnessing his axe 🎯 throwing DISASTER, as co host…he injured 🤕 that man. Hegseth is a sad, sack, impotent, evil man who only ever makes me want to vomit 🤮. I don’t say this usually, in his case I will…if he were the LAST person on earth…I would not speak to him! 🪱 That is also true for Steven Miller, Steve Bannon, Donald Trump senior or junior 🐍 🪱, snakes and worms all! Wait, include Lutnick, Vance 🐍 🐍 🪱 🪱 …how much time have you got?! A long list of vermin…we can all see the through thread 🪡, right?!!!
And he smiles approvingly at himself in the mirror -- probably flexes and poses and maybe even kisses his reflection. He's got a crush on himself. Ew. Further evidence of his bad taste and duh der mentality.
Same here! What was really unforgiveable was Bill saying how nice trump was. I wanted to say to "Bill, most serial killers are nice people when they want to be, you know..."
In my opinion, there is no excuse for the visit OR the compliment. None. The only exoneration for Maher is a full blown apology-retraction and opening another weed store near Mar-a-Lago. Probably city ordinances would prevent this, but it's a gratifying fantasy.
I think the deed has already been done, the award already presented. Maher has always had questionable taste in the company he keeps, but that allows him access to people that y’all and I would avoid.
Someone on Nobel committee should add this category. And yes, Andy should get the medal. This would cause donnie to have such hysteria that he'd become catatonic and FINALLY be confined to a small room in a convalescent home in Queens. All the caregivers would be immigrants from Belize, bent on revenge. No ketchup, no Diet Coke, Cheerios with 2% milk for breakfast, vegetable soup for lunch, and fish sticks with canned green beans for dinner. No snacks.
It's so gratifying to conjure up these images. Wish they'd become reality.
Every so often, I spend a bit of time daydreaming scenarios for trump. It's like a form of therapy. The reality crash can be rough, though, you're right! I'm often disappointed when I snap out of it and realize my dreams aren't reality...! (Har!)
Andy, I laughed aloud at your headline paired with the photo -- this is hilarious! I haven't laughed like that since the last time YOU made me laugh, and for that I am truly grateful. What would we all do without you?
Andy , I am happy that you are happy! 😂💕Thank you for the daily dose of sanity and laughter! Truly the best medicine for these nightmarish times ! Would Mousse consider being my therapist? 😂❤️
I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS A DISPUTE OVER THE TONNAGE BEING ALLOWED TO PASS, UNTIL THEY REALIZED ITWAS THE WEIGHT OF THE REDACTIONS THAT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE 10% INCREASE.
Unfortunately, most everyone can see the damage DJTrump and ilk have done 😭😭. One doesn’t have to be especially bright to see the shortcomings and cracks. It’s going to change everything. I am grateful that people are waking up and seeing the inequality, unfairness, cruelty, selfishness and grift. Let’s not underestimate the intelligence or cultural richness of other civilizations anymore. Let’s just focus on the planet and how we can do SOOO MUCH BETTER!!! Let’s think globally and move with grace!!! Let’s be decent, law abiding citizens!!! What a concept!!!
I have two Bernie t-shirts and deliberately wore one to a 10K where there were a goodly # of Trump supporters. I wondered if anyone would notice; sure enough, at the start line some woman tapped me on the shoulder and said, 'What's with the Bernie t-shirt?' I replied that I liked and supported him. She responded, 'You KNOW.....he's very anti-Israel.' I looked her in the eye and said, 'No. No he is not. He's anti-Bibi.' She slunk off. HA.
Just don't get it how so many folks don't get it -- it's not anti-Israel or anti-Semitic to be anti-Bibi and his foul command and the genocide they're trying to perpetrate on those poor Palestinians in Gaza. Why everyone doesn't feel this way is beyond me -- are those who don't pro-genocide? Pro war crimes and pro war atrocities?
Dear God / Goddess how I wish Bernie was our president!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Floofie--many thanks. I am Jewish. I loathe Bibi and his ultra right wing Ultra Orthodox supporters. I am in favor of a two state situation with full civil rights for the Palestinians AND for the Jewish settlers. I am fucking sick and tired of being accused of being a bad Jew because I hold these views. I admire and respect Bernie. If I could knit, I'd knit him some mittens
If only the Epstein files could be released-un-redacted- to the four corners of the earth- including Artemis II and the ISS.
And, if I may say so, we need a daily dose of Mousse in these troubled times. Not weekly. She is beyond cute. And so is Cookie! Throw his pictures in too, please. And I wish Joyce Vance would include more chicken/dog/cat shots.
Iran is going to make billions from the Strait, while before the war they made nothing. They should really name Trump Employee of the Month.
Yep. The new tolls for tankers passing through the Strait should fill Iran’s coffers plenty to rebuild and re-arm. Brilliant, trump.
He is not the sharpest knife in the drawer!!!!
He's not even a knife in a drawer; he's a an already-used plastic spork in a trash can.
He's not the sharpest used plastic fork in the trash can.
Actually, he's one of those plastic jar opener plastic circles that flip flops all over the place and has NO SHARP anything.
:-) !!
Do not recycle.
HAZARDOUS WASTE!
😆

I have things like this fall out of the back of my brain all the time. Random, rusty memories, I mean. Not sporks.
Sherlock Holmes’ brother Mycroft referred to himself as a "repository of arcane information [?]”. Please correct me if I erred.
I speak of myself as a 'fountain of useless facts'.
He’s not even in the drawer as a knife - he’s a spoon (that has a hole, so it, like trump, is useless.)
We have one of those! It was my mother's. We're long past the days of sugar bowls, but I can't get rid of it. Plus the metal is so old it may not be safe to used with food any more, but it probably wouldn't kill anybody...right?

HarrisWalz: ...if it would, I have an idea... :-) !!
Probably safer than what we use now!
Trump is a dusty, rusty, archaic TOOL!!!
Not the sharpest Bazooka at all.
He's not even a knife, more like a dull spoon!
Ah yes always focused on what's best for the US.
And DT gets a big out of that toll- right into his pocket!
If they offer to name it after Trump, we’d have a solid treaty.
It’s the most effective he’s been at making money – it’s just not his money.
If you look at the oil-market-futures 25 minutes before he announced his “two week….” Someone made a killing. My guess it was trump’s boys and bros. He IS making money. And looting ours as he kneecaps the USA further.
He did say he was negotiating "a joint venture" 🤣🤣🤣
Of course he did. If there is money to be made, that is all he cares about.
OH for a joint
He’s considering putting his statue there.🙄
Maybe his Arch can go there too! The biggest Golden Arch anywhere.
Wouldn't that be trademark infringement? I thought McDonalds already had a lock on golden arches.
Trump has a golden spur add on to avoid copyright infringement.
AHH!! I hope it's put at a level where he would back into it…😇
Oh the Epstein trump statue from the Ntl Mall thats has become so popular! How exciting I knew it would find a good home.
At the bottom of the strait?
…next to the Stonehenge set piece from This Is Spinal Tap.
Fine! Just don't put it anywhere in the USA!
This comment may get me tarred and feathered, but I cannot fault Iran for collecting tolls. They are owed reparations for the damage caused by the unprovoked attacks. Tolls will be a much more certain source of income, rather than wait for the US to pay for their war crimes.
Useful Idiot of the month
I just read that little orange don plans to split the profits with them
Zelensky should call Trump & inform him that the US, Trump, Hegseth, Kushner and Witkoff literally have no cards
Can they play with domino's? Maybe bingo cards?
😂 🤮 I heard that too! This bs is never going to end, is it?! Trump is a grifting moron 🤮
He's really a parasite extrordinaire you know kinda like a bedbug
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
They and Putin…he’s putting money in their pockets-wonder if any of it makes it back to his?????
Lots of money and favours owed for the pee tapes, remember?!
Is that Karma? Or is it too soon for Karma?
I'm waiting for someone, a very good hacker, to get the pee tape and send it world wide!!
But he is already Putin's employee of the month!
He's been Putin's employee of the months for years
in nyc we can a person like that a "dumb ass schmuck".
Fits the dumb ass to a T
Or name it the Trump Strait — this excursion would be over in a hot minute!
Not the full Sharpie he never was. He really has to press hard to make any ink flow out, more like a weak, sputtering gray than black.
He should hold a place of honor in Iran.
Is there a Nobel Prize for Humor? There should be, and Andy should get it, along with another award for Stating What Others Are Only Thinking Subliminally.
If there is, Hegseth is a lock.
Heggie has a lock on *inspiring* humor. He has no humor himself. The man himself only cracks a smile at the sight of blood.
He consistently makes me laugh. Perhaps the most embarrassing clown in the entire car.
and gag those tattoos!!!!
He’s hilarious but it’s unintentional (which makes it even more hilarious). But he takes himself and everything so damned seriously, it’s no wonder he turned to booze, just to escape himself.

one of those ultra scary clowns from horror movies
"Chucky"s twin: "Petey"!
Unless the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Might take a hurricane to make those apples fly!
--bigly ugly!

Preach, girlfriend!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Totally! He's able to make up for the loss of The Maga Bimbos. So much material yet to come
And he smiles approvingly at himself in the mirror -- probably flexes and poses and maybe even kisses his reflection. He's got a crush on himself. Ew. Further evidence of his bad taste and duh der mentality.
I think you’re right…he’s all about the mirrors 🪞 and kissing his pecs…and of course…kissing DJTrump‘s ass!!! EW EW EW 🤮 🤮
Oi oi oi -- just the thought of THAT -- vomitus maximus!
Well, I guess it's a lock, but it's unhinged.
There's a Mark Twain prize I think that's what its called. That would be great for Andy!
I concur! Andy could follow in the footsteps of Bill Maher, and receive the award in the former Trump Center for the Performing Arts.
Andy instead of Bill. I like Bill, but I haven't forgiven him for having dinner with trump. Not ok. Under any any circumstances.
Same here! What was really unforgiveable was Bill saying how nice trump was. I wanted to say to "Bill, most serial killers are nice people when they want to be, you know..."
In my opinion, there is no excuse for the visit OR the compliment. None. The only exoneration for Maher is a full blown apology-retraction and opening another weed store near Mar-a-Lago. Probably city ordinances would prevent this, but it's a gratifying fantasy.
I think the deed has already been done, the award already presented. Maher has always had questionable taste in the company he keeps, but that allows him access to people that y’all and I would avoid.
Of course Bill did right at the White House. Pretty much a bet, don’t you think?
Maybe Iran’s new leader should get nominated for the Nobel peace prize… just to chew what’s left of trump’s brain
I wish I'd thought of this first! Excellent!
Someone on Nobel committee should add this category. And yes, Andy should get the medal. This would cause donnie to have such hysteria that he'd become catatonic and FINALLY be confined to a small room in a convalescent home in Queens. All the caregivers would be immigrants from Belize, bent on revenge. No ketchup, no Diet Coke, Cheerios with 2% milk for breakfast, vegetable soup for lunch, and fish sticks with canned green beans for dinner. No snacks.
It's so gratifying to conjure up these images. Wish they'd become reality.
Priceless additions to my Dream Castle.
Every so often, I spend a bit of time daydreaming scenarios for trump. It's like a form of therapy. The reality crash can be rough, though, you're right! I'm often disappointed when I snap out of it and realize my dreams aren't reality...! (Har!)
Andy, I laughed aloud at your headline paired with the photo -- this is hilarious! I haven't laughed like that since the last time YOU made me laugh, and for that I am truly grateful. What would we all do without you?
Thank you!!! This makes me happy.
And please continue the photos of Mousse. I really needed that dose of cuteness
I can’t decide who makes me smile the most:
Andy for his hilarious satire, or Mousse for his (her?) adorable cuteness!
Ditto! Me too.
Andy , I am happy that you are happy! 😂💕Thank you for the daily dose of sanity and laughter! Truly the best medicine for these nightmarish times ! Would Mousse consider being my therapist? 😂❤️
And Mousse photos are the icing on the cake.
You make us happy. You make us laugh. You rev up our endorphins and boost our immune systems. Making you happy is the least we can do to thank you.
🎈❣️🎉 🏆💓🎯
My sentiments exactly!
True treasure, indeed- especially in these stupid authoritarian dictator-like times.
Truth! <3
Thanks for Mousse, Andy. If gin isn’t handy, fluffy and cute will suffice.
Mousse is a cutie, thank you for including him today!
Her. But yes!
oops - sorry, got her mixed up with Cookie - Cookie is a boy, right?
💓 🐾 🐾 💓🐾🐾
His motto is "shoot, ready aim."
If we are lucky, he will have the weapon pointed backwards when he yells fire. (shoot)
🤣🤣😂
A girl can dream!
--and in just that order!
If Iran had a copy of the Epstein files, Trump wouldn't have attacked them.
That's a big reason why Trump kisses up to Putin. Would love to see the kompromat that Putin has on Trump!
Yeah!
Thank God for Mousse!!!🥰🥰🥰
Oh Mousse! You are adorable and look so huggable! You were just what I needed today!
I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS A DISPUTE OVER THE TONNAGE BEING ALLOWED TO PASS, UNTIL THEY REALIZED ITWAS THE WEIGHT OF THE REDACTIONS THAT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE 10% INCREASE.

That’s crazy talk, Elisabeth! What are you, a socialist or something?
(((I am)))
😂😂. I want to sleep with Bernie Sanders😂😂😂 and his mitts 😂😂. Just kidding. I only have eyes for my dog 🐾🐾. 💓. Nothing pervy. 😂
😅😅. Heck, I sleep with my dog! All that happens is some heavy petting. 😉
😂😂 we are lucky!! 😂😂
👏💕👍 !!
(Insert rimshot here!)
I photoshopped up some frickin' awesome Bernie with his mitts memes -- wish I could post 'em! I'm still Berning for Bernie!!!
I have two Bernie t-shirts and deliberately wore one to a 10K where there were a goodly # of Trump supporters. I wondered if anyone would notice; sure enough, at the start line some woman tapped me on the shoulder and said, 'What's with the Bernie t-shirt?' I replied that I liked and supported him. She responded, 'You KNOW.....he's very anti-Israel.' I looked her in the eye and said, 'No. No he is not. He's anti-Bibi.' She slunk off. HA.
Perfect retort! Ha indeed! Brava, grrrlfriend!!!

Maybe in some alternate universe, just not ours.......
Pinko wackos unite! You have only to dump Trump!
Shwhew!!! Dang girl, you be on a roll!!! (inquiring minds want to know if it's buttered...)
And BIG HONKIN' YES to all you said -- I feel the same!
😂😂 🧈😂😂
"Trump, Artless Deal Maker" brought to you for free by Iran. Get your copy now whilst browsing the Epstein Files.
--and using Clorox and a straw to remove all the redactions by Sharpie!
Sometimes you just have to laugh!
If only the Epstein files could be released-un-redacted- to the four corners of the earth- including Artemis II and the ISS.
And, if I may say so, we need a daily dose of Mousse in these troubled times. Not weekly. She is beyond cute. And so is Cookie! Throw his pictures in too, please. And I wish Joyce Vance would include more chicken/dog/cat shots.

Ah, Andy, you’ve outdone yourself! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
