Looks like that would yank all your hair out!
Be less painful to shave your head.
My husband always says I'd look good bald, because I have a "round bowling ball" head. I always tell him I'll leave it to Sinéad. :laugh:
I often used to wonder how the witch got Rapunzel in the tower in the first place, if there was no door. Same as how did thorns cause blindness in the prince, and how did tears cure blindness....fairy tales are weird, there's so many questions. And, since when I read Rapunzel it was before the internet and you couldn't easily look stuff up, I remember always wondering what the heck rampion was. :laugh:
yuck, people eat that stuff, look like Orchids

Rare...
Yeah, I didn't see the appeal in rampion either. Must've been a pregnancy craving thing.
Steak...
Let's see
Rare and Steak
must be Prime Rib!
Yum!
I always get my steak well done.
ahh man, you cook out all the flavor then...
just make sure it's marinated
The Green Butchers -> great Movie (Black Humor)
I used to know somebody who ordered their steak burnt. The more burnt, the better, haha.
Smorgasbord...
Ordering burnt is a waste of money, I like a good pink medium.
Smorgasbord <= All You Can Eat
I tried it that way once, but went back to well done. For some reason I always like having steak with garden salad. And onions on the steak. Nummy nummy.
Buffet...

Buffet...
I can eat salad with anything or just eat salad as the meal.
Salad Bar
I went to one of the grocery stores a month or so ago with visions of (which is strange, because you'd think I'd have visions of chocolate cake!) their premade salads dancing through my head, and I went to the shelves they're usually on, and saw....almost nothing. Baffled, I took one of the lonely spinach and mushroom salads, which was pretty good but not what I had in mind. I learned later there was a romaine lettuce recall. I didn't think every salad would have romaine lettuce, but apparently they were taking no chances and biffed any salad with lettuce, lol! :laugh:
Sneeze guard...
I remember that, chances are they didn't want to risk anything, cross contamination? so they did right to remove it all.
Sneeze guard <== Hygienic
Want to see someone move fast?, throw a fake Tarantula at them, poof! their gone
lol! :laugh:
I used to be the designated spider squisher because some family members and friends are scared of them, but I kind of like spiders and will try to slide paper under them and put them outdoors when nobody scared of them is around. Mind you I've never had to deal with a black widow or anything.
lol! :laugh:

I don't want any around me. If their small enough I'll squash them or I'm looking for something to hit them with.
Funny thing: I used a broom to hit one, I suppose it was rather hard as in over kill, broke that broom in half!
So whats worse, no spider or no broom...?
They call me the exterminator
Haha! :D Well, unless the spider carcass was visible, there'd always be the worry that the spider survived, crawled into the broom, and laid eggs, so in that case it's probably best for the broom to break. :laugh:
I went into a place I used to work at one time for my check, and nobody had taken an order on the till yet because there was a spider on it. I know the poor little thing was sitting on the button wondering what all the fuss was about, haha.
Pest control...
Thing about pest control is they want you to sign contracts, of course they have to make money too.
Some years back I saw out side of course, what is known as a Black Widow spider. Never seen such a color on a spider before and I think thats what caught my eye.
I think we went after that with a tree branch.
Pest control.
expensive
Now, my spider braveness does not extend to black widow's. I probably would have squashed it with a whole tree, if I could! :laugh:
The spiders around here are usually pretty tame, but I did kill one when I was a kid that was pretty large, and it had weird white markings on it. I had to kill it because it was right by our basement door, and that getting inside and crawling around the basement was the stuff of nightmares. It might have been a swamp spider(though I was nowhere near a swamp) though I've often wondered if some exotic deadly spider may have wandered away from a pet shop or something. And with apologies to spiders everywhere, because they're mostly pretty nice, in the case of this one I can honestly say....ick!
Costly...
Have you seen the size of those that live in the desert?
I mean, you would have to use a grenade/nuclear missile or something, oh gosh their bigger then your hands.
My nephew while on active duty said he had seen them half hidden in the sand, kick at them and they take off faster then a speeding bullet.
horror movie
Wow, those sound like some doozies.
I like those spiders that curl up and roll down the sand hills. :)
slasher flick...
They always solve the mystery
V8....
Guess V8 counts as a word, albeit not much of one. :laugh:
Charlie Watts <== Mick Jaggers drummer
I used to love the Rolling Stones Harlem Shuffle video with the cartoon cats in it. :)
Best Dressed List...
Best Dressed List
Men in tuxedo's
Emus...
I tried Emu meat once. I felt so guilty I haven't been able to look an emu in the eye since. :laugh:
not a pretty bird either. It's cousin to ostrich
splitting the African plate
Laurasia...
How about that? I only knew about these two, but I looked on wiki and there's a whole list of supercontinents.
You know more then me
large landmass
famous mountain, with an outstanding history.
Pop goes the weasel
no idea why that popped into my head
Tuppenny...
I dunno. Maybe Jack in the Boxes play that song a lot. For some reason when I posted Jack in the Box Homer Simpson popped into my head. Why, I cannot fathom, lol. :laugh:
Treefrog (Lovely weather here today.)
Treefrog poisonous
raining here
Cone Snails...
We had both rain and snow. Though it was nice enough for a walk tonight, though chilly.
dang, since those are already in the water, wonder if they leave a yucky trail
lol, I dunno. :laugh:
Slimy....
Row, row, row your boat....
That's the song I learned to sing in my head a long time ago so I wash my hands long enough. I knew it was important, but who knew it would be a potentially lifesaving lesson! :eek:
Amen to that!
Ive started singing a song we learned in grade school
M - I, crooka letter crooka letter, - I, - -crooka letter crooka letter -I, hump back - hump back, - I
Mississippi
That's a good one, singing along to that would make washing your hands kind of fun. I think I remember a similar jump rope song when I was a kid. :)
jump rope can only be done by children. I'd break something now.
Ring around the rosie
lol, me too. :laugh:
Nursery Rhyme....
The first Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes I remember were from ye olde Childcraft Encyclopedia, if I remember right. Guess the internet probably phased out the encyclopedia salesmen. I think those worldbook encyclopedias and childcraft books were part of most households back then. :laugh:
I think we watched a lot of Pop Eye, and Sesame Street
Me, too. On Sesame Street, my favorite was Oscar the Grouch.
Oh, everybody must love Cookie Monster. Chocolate Chip Cookies were his favorites, as I recall. :)
It was , but mine is White chocolate Macadamia nut
Yum! I think Cookie Monster would approve. :)
I also used to like Icebox Cookies.
Icebox Cookies
made me think of french silk pie
How can something that delicious looking exist and me not know anything about it! :eek:
Chocolate Mousse...
it's summer time
Lemon icebox pie
whipped cream with cherry liqueur
Isn't that the case with everything that's delicious, it's also fattening?
The only exception to that for me is spinach.
(Maybe Popeye is somewhere in my family tree, I dunno.) :laugh:
I think Popeye liked her so much because she wore her hair in a bun, he must've been into the librarian look, haha. :laugh:
Can you imagine what she would have looked like if she had fixed it in a french twist and wore makeup.
that would have been stylicious.
do we ever have enough closets
No, most everyone could use more closet space.
Though most of the world would be filling up extra closet space with jammies and sweatpants right now. :D:
During this time while it's still somewhat chilly outside I have a big fuzzy throw I cuddle up with.
I have one of those blankets with sleeve things that somebody gave me. A snuggie? It's hideous, yet also wonderful, haha. :laugh:
I'm sure if I had one of those someone would confiscate it and leave me to freeze
Eh, if you ever get a snuggie and somebody confiscates it, just toss them outside in the snow in it, and all the neighbors will make fun of them for wearing a blanket with sleeves for years and years. :laugh::laugh:
Chilly...
I ran out to the car once with no shoes because I was in a hurry, as soon as I opened the door I noticed I had stepped in something..................
Love it when neighbors dog leave a friendly deposit
I wasn't a pleasant person when I got back inside.
Ew! I can imagine. I wouldn't have been too happy either. :sick:
I hope you sent the neighbor a pooper scooper for Christmas. :laugh:
Sometimes around here you need one as big as a snow shovel for these big dogs.
We have a Saint Bernard about the size of a compact car next door, but his doggie parents keep him well cleaned up after. Which is just as well, because I think his pooper scooper would have to be a small tractor, at least. :laugh:
Blizzard...
It wasn't a blizzard, but we still had snow Saturday. Everytime I think of putting the shovel away in the shed, it snows again.
I've seen people walk their dogss and carry plastic grocery bags
I ain't picking it up
They should invent some sort of pooper Roomba-like device. Then you could navigate back to your neighbors with remote contreol, and deposit it back on the dog's lawn. lol! :laugh:
ohhh gosh, the future of pooper scoopers
Hehe! :laugh: And some dog waste bags with little robot legs so they can throw themselves in the garbage.
whoever invents that is going to be a millionaire
They sure will. For myself, I think I'd better aspire to be a pennyaire someday, and build up from there. :laugh:
I'd be happy with a Reese's peanut butter cup!
A lady that likes to bake sent me along a homemade peanut butter cup last year. I love Reese Peanut Butter cups, but the homemade ones were actually even better. :)
I've tried to make home made before.....I will not try that again, yuck.
I love their peanut butter
I haven't tried the reese peanut butter yet. I've been meaning to, but those Kraft Bears keep reeling me into buying their peanut butter by looking so cute, haha! :laugh:
there are cute commercials for Kit Kat
I just watched the kitkat commercial with the student driver. That was funny. :laugh:
That made me think of that Liberty Mutual commercial, guy driving with an Emu ......
Haha! I'd never watched those commercials before. :laugh::laugh:
LiMu Emu
bet that critter has a very potent kick
Maybe that's how they won the Emu War so many years ago.
Didn't knnow there had been one of those, their legs are as strong or stronger than a kangaroo's
Yes I guess the emu war happened in Australia a long time ago.
Marsupial..
Ross...
Remember that episode of Friends, when Ross bleached his teeth and they glowed in the dark? haha! :laugh:
LOL
still didnt help him get any women, not so smart
Foobie (http://cyberneticzoo.com/pseudo-automatons-and-robots/1979-fubar-d-robot-american/)...
Fauxpas (oopsie!:cleaning:)
My hubby wears one of the liquid bandages. I always thinks it smells like nail polish remover.
dang, how can that heal anything
Aloe Vera...
I dunno. I prefer my wounds heal out of sight, all nicely covered up, so I still stick with the old fashioned band-aids. :D:
yuck, and scary
that thing reminded me of an armadillo
I didn't even know they existed until I looked for armoured animals.
Pichi...
well, these critters hibernate
Bear...
I was the passenger when we were going for a drive a few years back, when a bear ran out in front of us. I immediately panicked, locked our doors and turned down the stereo. I'm not sure what I thought that was gonna do. Maybe I was scared the bear wouldn't like my taste in music? lol. :laugh: :laugh:
Would had been fun to watch if he had started dancing to the beat!
lol! :laugh:
Bear Dance (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/mysterious-bear-dance-explained/)...
I've watched America's funny videos, babies dancing and singing is pretty good.
Aw, I bet they're cute videos. :)
melody...
oh they are, their precious and some of those kids carry a tune like an adult.
They're lucky. I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Fortunately, it's pretty easy to avoid singing situations. Though I've occasionally had to lip sync Oh Canada once in a while, without anyone (hopefully) noticing.
Oh your not alone, theres nobody who can remember the words to all songs all the time.
Just dont stand before a crowd and forget the words.
That would be embarrassing. Memorizing a song then suddenly going blank in front of a crowd. Could you imagine it happening in front of Simon Cowell? Nightmare fuel!
The pressure he puts on people I know it's happened.
thank God for Karaoke!
sour notes
that reminds me of dragging your fingernails across a blackboard
Oh, that is the worst! That, and I really hate that squeaky sound that styrofoam makes when people touch it.
Chalk...
shipping bubble wrap, POP
Oh, I could pop those for hours.
Crackle...
Lights...
I wonder what it was like when they invented the first lightbulbs, etc.? It must have seemed like witchcraft, haha. :)
I think they found out that there's many who look better in the dark
lol! :laugh:
Nighttime...
I used to sleepwalk, talk in my sleep, scream, and every once in a while, apparently I used to stand up in the middle of my bed staring into space with my eyes wide open not blinking. I'm pretty sure the boogie man probably ran away screaming in terror when I was a kid. I probably terrified the Sandman, too. :eek: :laugh:
All I ever did was fall out of bed.....Sandman please stay away, send me the Easter Bunny please :)
Weirdly enough, with all my sleep walking and such, I don't recall ever falling out of bed. I preferred the Easter bunny, too, mainly because he brought Easter Eggs. :)
Have you ever been dreaming or such and felt as if you were falling and out of bed and wasn't? Now thats a crazy sensation.
Chocolate bunny
Yes, I have and that is a weird feeling. :)
Milk chocolate...
chocolate covered cherries
That reminds me of Cherry Blossoms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_Blossom_(candy)) I'm not sure if you guys have that candy in America or not. :)
Don't think we do, or I just havent seen it
I enjoy peanuts, so that brings me to Payday candy bars
I don't know if I've ever had a payday bar, but it looks good.
One of my favorites is the Caramilk bar.
oh boy, that looks very good.
Reminded of Cadbury Eggs
Oh, I like cadbury eggs, too. Yummy.
Mini Eggs...
Easter basket grass
it ends up all over the place.
Upright...
My poor vacuum just keep trundling along, never really outright breaking down, but just gets sadder and sadder. Both wheels are gone from it now. It's getting old enough I'm soon going to start celebrating it's birthday, lol. :laugh:
Oh, my mom has a cheapie vacuum which has a dustbuster built right into it. It's hard to explain. The dustbuster is awesome, but every time you use the vacuum it just spews whatever you just vacuumed up back on the floor. It's like a vacuum from bizarro world, lol. :D:
Handheld Vacuum...
We have "do it yourself. self service car washes", which also have vacuums you can use for the car. Wish we could take those home and use them there because their
industrial strength and would probably yank the carpet off the floor.
Oh, the gas station down the road has vacuums you can use for the car, but they have them attached to the ground. They're nice.
Hetty...
The one I saw on the internet, Hetty, had eyes on it!
My great grandmother's name was Nettie.
Yup, there's also a vacuum named Henry with eyes on it, too, from the same company.
They used to call my great grandmother Nett, I'm not sure why they settled on that and not calling her Nettie. :)
as kids we called my grandmotherMeeMaw
Just like Sheldon called his grandma. :)
Sometimes, as much as I like to talk, I could be labeled socially adept
Then I have days, don't look my way or speak to me.....
I think we all have days like that. :)
Social Butterfly...
