NOTE: It's much better to start drinking coffee BEFORE attempting to navigate F**CKING Monday pic posts. Disregard at your peril. If you do not drink coffee, I advise to begin the ritual. Consult your physician or spiritual advisor if in doubt. The picture of the pizza is an example as to why. ;-). Also note: this was written before I've had my morning coffee. So, it's OK to call me a hypocrite. My eye-brain can't process fully till my cup is well in progress or finished. Thanks Wirecutter for the daily pix posts. It's my first stop while coffee consumption is in progress. Seldom does it not succeed in starting my day humorously.
Pop put in the first dishwasher in the neighborhood (or the family, for that matter) in 1962 or 1963 to ease Mom's workload. One evening, being out of dishwasher detergent, she put a half cup of Trend (tm) dish detergent in the machine. Now this was in the days before phosphates were removed from detergents and they really made some suds. Well, the machine started to make a funny noise and Pop opened it up to investigate. The foam came out of there close to the consistency of the stuff that comes out of the barber's hot shaving soap machine and there was plenty of it. Pop started to mutter, the dog ran and hid in the basement, Mom threw herself on the bed crying and I, risking it all, started to laugh hysterically. Pop was sweeping the foam down the basement stairs and out the side door of the house using a couple of pieces of corrugated as a plow and I was assigned to the garden hose to wash it out to the gutter. That was fifty-nine years ago and I'm still laughing.
Once I ordered a pizza for delivery from Pizza Ranch (Midwest chain) and it arrived looking WORSE than #8. Toppings were 4" radius on a 16" pizza. Called the store and spoke to Manager (no, I'm not a Karen...) She said a "new girl" made the pizza. I asked if, since she was new, why did no one check her work? Why did any other employee let that pizza out the door after being so shoddily made. Manager had no explanation but did make another (correctly) and had it out to me within 15 minutes. Having worked in pizza joints it amazes me that someone would try to serve a pizza that they themselves wouldn't eat.
#4: Sucks when a hairbrush breaks. I at least don't really have a spare lying around.
#6: Somebody spilled his rice!
#7: No clue what's going on here, but respect to that guy. Also he's probably in for a very painful couple of weeks, although the beard might have caught the worst of that.
#8: Rookie mistake or is this pizza in this era of inflation? Put those toppings right to the edge of the damn pizza and let things sort themselves out.
#5. Kinda reminds me of the cave paintings in France.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or does that look like a feral pig mid-stride while shagging ass?

ReplyDeleteI advise avoiding consuming coffee while perusing any of WC's gif/pic dumps. it's dangerous to your PC and/or phone. ;-))

Love the cave painting. At first glance, I thought that #1had loaded their dishwasher with dishwashing soap, before I realized it was avalanche snow.
ReplyDeleteStarker here, my first thought was it was windblown lake ice. It struck me as high end lake house. But, it could either.

Delete#8 Is that a double dough pizza?
ReplyDeleteHelp me out, what am I looking at in pic #2?
ReplyDeleteThat chicken nugget is raw in the middle.
DeleteMédium rare chicken nugget (with a side of salmonella, probably).
Delete6 and 9 are gonna be expensive.
ReplyDeleteWhat did the dog get into?
ReplyDeleteDesmodium seeds, commonly known as beggar lice or stick-tights.
Delete#10....Who let the dogs out

On occasion I've looked like #7 after a few hours of shoveling snow. It's why I grow a beard for the winter season.
