And, I believe the pancake thread has determined that French Toast is a multiple O – so extra bonus.

Man, you really had to wind up and whale on those suckers!

TJBM is getting used to seeing wild possums in their house.
<(Wondering…are there tame possums?)
(Why on God’s Green Earth would anyone tame a possum?)
(Could you train it to bite the end of a stick, and dust with it?)
Outside my house, not in my house. This isn’t Grey Gardens, after all. But, when I’m walking Sadie late at night, we do occasionally encounter a possum. If the little creature can’t scurry away quickly enough, it, well, plays possum.
TJBM wishes that the NBA would return to those little, tiny short-shorts of past decades. A little something for the ladies (or, for the guys; I’m cool with that).

Oooh. Yeah. Once it was only the little moon shaped ones. Later the seaweed crackers.

Depends on which commercials they are. They have to be pretty good ones like some of those shown during the Superbowl. I absolutely HATE the Progressive Insurance commercials with that idiot Flo and her stupid humor and script.
TJBM believes that today’s professional athletes are way overpaid.
True. I like watching Undercover Boss because they pay homage to regular people who work very hard and do a great job.

TJBM wishes they were as smart as @Tropical_Willie.
False. What a burden. ;-)
TJBM thinks that it’ll be cool when we finally have holiday goods in the stores, 24/7, 365.
IDK. I think it’ll be cool when the materialism of the holidays starts dying out….which ain’t gonna happen. I just thought of something @Tropical_Willie If I go out to eat on Thanksgiving, that puts a demand on other people to have to work on that day…
TJBM thinks it should be the law that ALL businesses excepts hospitals,-etc. are closed on Christmas and Thanksgiving and the day after Thanksgiving.
FALSE. Not only am I equal opportunity religious, I have made some DAMNED good money working the holidays, when I needed it most. Double time and a half is fought over.
TJBM has played a board game in the past month.
Not physically. I’ve been playing Words With Friends, which would be Scrabble IRL.
TJBM wants to play a board game IRL.
What is IRL? I played Risk today, and Monopoly this week, but it was on the xbox.
TJBM would rather watch cartoons than work on mondays.
IRL = “In real life” aka “Meatspace”.
I don’t watch cartoons much anymore, and I work from home now, so I’ll go with “no”.

I don’t have a job. :( I used to love my job until my Boss completely lost her mind.

Thou foul temptress!

Hmmm…never tried that, but, sure, I’m bold and adventurous. lol
TJBM wants to go see a movie today but it is SO beautiful out they will feel guilty sitting in a dark movie theater instead of being active outdoors
False. I’m attempting to talk my husband into mattress shopping. I’m getting desperate.
The jelly below me also needs a new mattress.
No, I’m good with mattresses. Park his butt on the couch until he agrees to get a new mattress!
TJBM has issues everytime he or she want to make waffles! Apparently I’ve lost my electric beater for to stiffen my egg whites with. Of course, I don’t find this out until I have everything to ready to mix…..
False, I buy frozen waffles, which is next to never. I’m not really a breakfast person, coffee and a yogurt and granola bar or a bowl of cereal is about my speed.
TJBM is having a lazy Sunday morning
Pffffft! I wish! That was the plan but, at about 10 a.m., I got a wild hare to make waffles. One thing led to another…I didn’t eat until 3:00! The kitchen is a wreck…and my husband got a wild hare to fry chicken and mash potatoes tonight to add to the mess. Which I will ignore until tomorrow.
TJBM likes manipulating photos in Photbucket and other programs.
I have no clue.
TJBM is not a fan of…?
Hip hop and rap music, modern country, 99% of pop music, NuMetal, reality television, most American television and movies, and mediocre coffee.
TJBM is almost as big a snob as I am. ^_^
I am more agnostic than a snob. I don’t like most things, think people who like them are a little crazy, but am too lazy to actively dislike anything or care if other people enjoy it.
TJBM is obsessive about something that no normal person should care about.
Yes..but then, why be normal? I like what I obsess over and it doesn’t seem to be hurting anyone else that I need to scrub the sink out and leave it sparkling clean…
TJBM has already begun Christmas shopping.
False. I’m procrastinating.
The jelly below me will do a happy dance with me that my hubby agreed to a brand new mattress!!! It’s being delivered tomorrow, woohooooooooo!
Yaaay! For brand new mattresses! Sleep tight!
TJBM thinks maybe the mods are a little too persnickety sometimes.
@WillWorkForChocolate Well we know what you guys will be doing tomorrow night. lol
True, sometimes, but what do I really know? I haven’t been in “trouble” here since my first few months. I was given a 2 week suspension and have been able to behave myself since. Guess it worked. haha
TJBM is getting sleepy
Maybe.
TJBM Thinks life is too short to stay angry at anyone.
Nah. I believe that to a degree, depending on circumstances. I also believe life is too short to give people an opportunity to walk on me.
TJBM would take a trip into space if they could afford the fee.
Naw. The NSA would follow me there too! LOL
TJBM likes burnt toast.
False,just feel like burnt toast.
TJBM likes green olives on their sandwiches.
Ick, no.
TJBM woke up before it was light this morning.
True, but I think I must wake up about every 20 minutes or so.

Yes! But not intentionally.
TJBM knows someone who has eaten a bug intentionally.
Yep. I hear they are slimy yet satisfying. (But I’ll pass all the same, thanks.)

It was fine.
TJBM has no patience with anymore with old people and whiney kids
I have more patience with old people, the older I get. I probably couldn’t have less patience with whiny kids. Or adults.
TJBM has cross dressed.
Um, well. I’m a girl. Can girls cross-dress?
TJBM says it’s going to snow.
False! Snow is something I could happily witness on television alone for the rest of my days, so NO SNOW.
Sure, girls can cross dress. Pull on a tux.
TJBM calls duct tape “Oklahoma Chrome”.
Nope, I call it the “Handyman’s Secret Weapon”.
TJBM knows that anything can be fixed with a hammer, duct tape, or super glue.
If I put on a tux it would be assumed I am a show girl, not a cross dresser.
You forgot “staples.” But yep, they can fix anything, including gaping wounds. And if it can’t be fixed using that, it ain’t worth fixin’.
TJBM thinks everyone needs to start setting examples of behavior for the rest of society to emulate.
Tralse. I hold myself to a high standard, and that’s all I can really do
(Decidedly not a showgirl)
TJBM weeps easily.
Only over animal cruelty, humans, meh, they bring on most of their own stuff. haha
TJBM is an animal lover
Oh, I like ‘em OK, but I wouldn’t say I love them. Not like my husband does!
TJBM has no desire to cross dress.
Not really. I prefer feminine clothes generally although every so often I tom-boy it up.
TJBM has eaten an apple today.
No. I ate garlic bread and chocolate and now I don’t feel good.
TJBM is tired of people telling her how she feels about things.
That used to be a problem, but no more.
TJBM thinks their computer has malware.
Maybe.. there is this one email newsletter I get nearly daily and every time it hits my inbox a message pops up saying that my web browser is attempting to access an intranet site, would I like to block it? That seems not right.
TJBM is feeling inspired to write.
True . . .
TJBM has rickets.
I don’t know, maybe hiding under the extra 30 lbs. on my ass this year. lol
TJBM is trying to get in shape again as a middle ager…pffft!
Yep. Multiple knee problems, including surgery for a meniscal tear, broke my once-regular and rigorous exercise regimen. Now, I’m just plain lazy; once you stop working out, it’s difficult to get to the gym and back into a routine. I come up with excuses such as, “But I have all this laundry to do,” or, “It’s 2:30 pm. Time to start preparing dinner.”
TJBM bites his/her fingernails.
I did, until I started wearing acrylics to prevent me from doing so.
The jelly below me wants to come over for taco night and new mattress party! (We have to jump up and down on the new mattress for two hours, whilst drinking champagne and flipping pancakes, to break it in, ya know.)
Oh I am so in.
I don’t even have a contribution to the thread, I just want in on the booze and jumping and pancakes.
I want nekkid pancakes . . . YAH ! ! Jumping on bad knees not so much.
TJAM ^ ^ ^ ^ didn’t do a TJBM
But the TJBM doesn’t care.
nobody is going to bring up the logistics of jumping up and down vigorously on a mattress after tacos?!?
True, I won’t bring it up, but…
TJBM jumps up and down on their mattress after drinking 4 Tsing Taos
False. Jumping up and down is Tigger’s preview.
TJBM cracks and eats hard shell nuts.
Oh gosh yes! I love walnuts but especially the english walnuts. I REALLY wish I could get hickory nuts. I haven’t had any for a very last time and I LOVE them.
TJBM is going to overlook that I can’t figure out what the dealio is about pancakes, and either tell us all or PM me.
I don’t know. But I’ll fix you some if you want them. What kind of syrup works for you?
TJBM is bald!
Yes I am and bald is beautiful! (I got sick of getting haircuts every 2 to 3 weeks to satisfy military standards. And I save a fortune on not having to buy shampoo)
TJBM is a germophobe and uses hand sanitizer religiously.
Nope. Germs help the immune system, unless yours is already so compromised you should live in a bubble.
TJBM is allergic to wool.
False. I’m not allergic to anything that I know of.
TJBM has tickets. Wait…was that just asked above?
Ha! I have a couple.
Actually, the hubs’ band is opening for a national act on the 30th, and I have my ticket to the show hiding in my sewing table, in case they sell out and he decides to sell/give away my ticket to someone else.
TJBM hates hunting for babysitters.
Nope. I’m Waaay past that stage, and I only found a dependable babysitter a few times anyway (dependable meaning someone who’d even think about coming). Other than that we used Grandma.
TJBM won’t use artificial sweeteners.
I like Splenda, but usually just use sugar.
And there are no grandmas. His lives in Illinois, mine is busy fattening up a small Dutch boy in a gingerbread house somewhere.
TJBM has a favourite local band.
I do, by default. The father of my oldest Granddaughter has always had a band of one sort or another. Used to be GreenDay. Right now I think they’re called Linnabary Wine. They do a lot of 70’s, CCR, that kind of thing. Harley (Boo’s dad) is really very good, but is still a wannabe at 36.
TJBM wishes it was warm all year around.
False. I hate the heat, 5 months of it is more than enough for me. I’d like to live somewhere where the maximum temps. never get about 85.
It is still warm and dry here in NorCal, desperately need rain.
TJBM is savoring their morning coffee right now
No, done had coffee, working on my first Diet Coke.
TJBM has electronic crap spread all over their desk.
False. No desk just my library table and laptop with a bamboo runner, a magnifying glass, several receipts, a wicker lamp and naked head hunter guy statue. lol
TJBM wants a naked headhunter
Hmmm, nekkid wit pancakes. (I’m hiding!).
TJBM is a theist.
No, I’m not. Kind of wish I was. Used to be though. PUT YER CLOTHES ON ETHEL!!
TJBM’s computer has been hacked before.
Possibly. My debit card was hacked once. Took a lot to convince Visa that I had indeed not withdrawn three grand from various ATMs across New York City, as I had not set foot on Manhattan Island since I was 12 years old. “But according to our records you used to live there”. Yeah. In 1993.
TJBM plans to shop small and local businesses for holiday gifts.
Somewhat. Unfortunately there aren’t many small business left since Walmart showed up, and those that are here are really expensive. But I won’t shop Walmart if I can help it either.
TJBM is so glad for internet shopping and shipping.
GAWD YES! Reduced mobility being a harsh issue for me, shopping is tough. I think I’m in love with my guy in the brown truck!
TJBM has a Christmas nightmare in their past.
Mmmm yeah, actually. I was really really sick, in the hospital for two weeks last November, spent all of December recovering. I had actually been sick for several months prior to that, just didn’t know it. I wasn’t myself and I lost control of a lot of our finances during that time. It was a mess. My husband took it upon himself to take out a “90 day note” for $2000 before Christmas to use FOR Christmas. I would have vetoed that had I been my normal self. We’re STILL paying it off. So that was kind of a nightmare for me.
TJBM has given a gift to someone (Christmas or otherwise) and had that person sniff in disdain or express obvious dislike over the gift you gave.
Probably, but if I do, I can’t think of any.
TJBM is ready for cold weather (Brrrrrr)!
I am never ready for cold weather. The only time I’m good with it is in the evenings, with a cold north wind beating on the house, and me all curled up by the fireplace (or warm under comfy blankies.)
TJBM will not be participating in Black Friday.
Never have; have no intention of starting now!
TJBM doesn’t like marshmallows.
I don’t mind them. I won’t go out of my way to eat them, but they have their uses.
TJBM still uses recipes or cooking tips he or she learned from their mom or dad.
Yes. My mom always puts a little sugar in tomato sauce and taught me the same. I also make a good soup she always made me.
TJBM hates tomatoes.
False. Tomatoes are the basic building blocks of culinary life.
TJBM got a jumbo crayon stuck in their nose as a kindergartener.
No. I wasn’t a nose kid.
My brother, however, was in the hospital four separate times – peas, raisins, Lucky Charms and… I forget the fourth one.
My son stuck a transparent red Lego up his nose just before his third birthday. THAT was a fun trip to the Urgent Care center. The best part might have been the fact that they remembered him as Fishtank Boy
TJBM has a child with a nickname given to them by a local physician.
Not a physician, but my son’s PE teacher named him The Choker in 7th grade. He lost his temper at another kid and started choking him. I don’t understand it, but three it is.
TJBM wishes they sold smaller cans of certain foods, like refried beans.
No, I don’t care.
TJBM wants to know the backstory of Fishtank boy!
The link is a picture of the fish tank my son broke, with his head, when he was 18 months old.
It left just a tiny cut between his eyebrows, and all the fish survived.
I took him to the urgent care center anyway, and they did an X-ray to make sure nothing was broken.
No one could believe he was completely unharmed – and apparently it was shocking enough that they remembered it a year later.
TJAM
Is the same as
TJBM.
Nope. Well yes, and no.
TJBM has many pets.
Nope, none. I have no pet.
TJBM was raised to be racially insensitive.
Haha…true, funny. I once Beavernapped a stupid ceramic Beaver my ex in-laws had in their yard and we sent ransom notes with the Beaver bound and gagged. Completely led them astray and they were convinced it was another family member. lol
TJBM has been to Beaver Utah all the rrads are paved in red asphalt from the local red rock, it’s the red road to beaver haha
I have blessedly never been anywhere in the Land of Weak Beer.
TJBM still doesn’t have a passport.
False, I do not like Turnips, but..I do have a passport, anyone want to run away with me? lol
TJBM chews bubble gum
No. It sticks to my teeth.

True! I JUST made a snack of swiss cheese, red grapes and a piece of french bread. haha
TJBM is a cheeseaholic
Who am I to dis a brie?
TJBM would like a helping of my homemade chicken stew?
Ohhh, yes! Thank you.
TJBM can eat anything and not gain weight.
Hah…in my dreams, I have to work really hard to keep my girlish figure which is not so girlish right now lol
TJBM loves satin comfortors
Actually, I prefer a military down filled mummy style sleeping bag. They are so super warm! I fell in love with them during my navy years when I had to use one on duty nights. I had to spend the night on board my assigned craft, and sometimes they wer under repairs during the winter, which meant no heat. I could sleep skinny in my mummy bag, during winter on the east coast, and still stay so toasty warm i had to unzip it for a couple of hours before the night was over/
TJBM has never slept on a boat (Or ship)
False. They honeymoon of my second marriage was a 7 day Carnival Cruise in the Caribbean.
TJBM has difficulty sleeping while travelling on aircraft.
Who would want to? I love plane rides! – I grant i’ve never been on one longer than a few hours.
TJBM is afraid of flying
False. Although, I’ve had a fear of heights since Las Vegas, I still love flying.
TJBM is a fan of Louis Comfort Tiffany.
Yes, wish I had my aunt’s dining room chandelier. A Tiffany from the 1915 or just before WWI.
TJBM is completing a shopping list to go out shopping.
TRUE! I happen to be on-line shopping for Coke, and I’m headed to the outlet food store for crab meat at the amazing price of $5 a pound!
@Tropical_Willie chat me up about LCT some time!
TJellyBN is full of beans!
LOL…I was, yesterday, had lunch at the BEST Mexican Place ever.
TJBM is full of coffee right now
False. Maybe Diet Coke and water, but not coffee.
TJBM still loves some of the stuff their mom used to feed them, like bread smothered with chicken gravy.
^ That sounds yummy, but my mom was a godawful cook. I took over that job as soon as I was tall enough to reach the back burner while standing on a step-stool.
TJBM would consider egging the school board building if their child was forced to sit outside on the ground for an hour because they couldn’t schedule a substitute bus driver. And they might consider mailing them a box of dog poop if the school didn’t bother to call the parents to let them know their kids would be an hour late coming home.
Well, yeah I would!
TJBM doesn’t have as much faith in those who are supposed to be taking care of our kids as he or she used to.
You can fucking say that again.
TJBM has a funny story they can share to take my mind off my homicidal raging.
Go to my timeline on fb. Look down until you see a story about a basement. There are three pictures attached, one of a teenager, one of a little boy, and one of some evil basement steps. Try that. :)
TJBM needs to take a shower.
Ha! I was reading that during the hour I spent sitting in the grass at his bus stop. It was quite funny. Also, I want a magic curtain.
Ian had a short phase of being afraid of his room. After doing everything I could to draw out what he was actually afraid of, and working with logic to show him that the dark room is the same as the light room, and you can keep the red light on anyway, and blah blah blah… I finally gave him this old bottle of Avon perfume, and told him it was Anti-Monster Mist, and it would make all the scary things go away if he sprayed it three times.
I think I smelled that awful smell four times. The bottle still sits on his nightstand, but he’s not afraid of his room anymore.
And yes, I do need a shower.
TJBM has used “magic” items to appease their children’s fears.
False. I methodically beat their fear out of them.
TJBM is a Bronie.
No. I know some though.
TJBM doesn’t like watermelon.
False. I like it.
TJBM has magic things around their house for the little grandkids.
nope
TJBM is tempted to remove money from the collection plate.
No. However, it’s been years since I’ve been in a place with a collection plate.
TJBM wants a trained German Shepherd.
^ Yes! When the hubs and I finally get a place with a fenced-in yard, we’re hoping to get a Shepherd. Or a labrador. I’ve disallowed any more “violent” breeds, because my quasi-logical paranoia is strong. But Shepherds are great with kids.
TJBM is more a cat person.
Shepherd. Labs will eat your yard. Literally. Do not get a lab.
Yes I am more of a cat person.
TJBM hates feeling really full after eating.
Yes, I get a stomach ache and I have to put on sweatpants!
TJBM likes snakes.
I’m not a snake lover, but I’m not a hater either. Live and let.
TJBM toasts both sided of both pieces of bread for a grilled cheese sandwich.
I was not aware that you could do it any other way. And you butter the bread not the godd*mn pan.
TJBM wonders how grown adults out of college find drugs to take, because they think that is only something younger people know.
False. I’m in Illinois and a judge was given 18 months for crack. His investigation started when a fellow judge died at his place earlier this year of heroin. The supplier was a former probation officer. I suppose in Illinois, being in the field of law and order is as good a way to procure drugs as any.
TJBM can stand on their head.
Not anymore, but I used to be able to. I suppose I could, if there is a wall to prop my feet against. Shit..getting older sucks. lol
TJBM makes a mean blackberry pie I do, I do
Alas, I cannot cook or bake to save my life. Although a slice of pie sounds nice, right about now.
TJBM prefers ethnic cuisine when dining out as opposed to mainstream American dishes.
Oh yes. I live for Asian food. Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Indian… Om nom nom nom…
TJBM wishes they had a Japanese grandmother to teach them how to cook, too.
I have the next best thing. My daughter lives in Japan. So far she’s taught me how to make omletto (no idea how you spell that). It’s basically an omelet over rice with some sort of sauce. The sauce is what makes it, and there are a variety of sauces. Apparently it’s a comfort food there.
TJBM has been to Japan.
False,just across Canada.
TJBM has never sat in a semi truck.

Well, I need to do it again. My side, anyway.
TJBM is behind on some bills.
True. My car insurance is a day or two over, strictly out of procrastination.
TJBM eats breakfast, lunch and dinner, every day.
False. I eat a brunch at about 11, and a “dinner” at about 3:00, then I’m done for the day.
TJBM wishes someone would just come clean their house.
False, cleaning relaxes me. I know, I’m weird.
TJBM plays Candy Crush Saga.

TJBM would like to hire @Valerie111 to clean their house.
Certainly. I hate to do housework and other related chores.
TJBM has enjoyed room service at a nice hotel or resort on at least one occasion.
True I used to live a couple of blocks from a vacation casino hotel. I visited frequently,and had a membership, which is free. Every year on my birthday they gave me a free room or suite for a couple of nights, usually including a free tournament or complimentary gambling credit at least one of my meals, stuff like that. pool was heated year round geothermic. NICE.
TJBM has never been to a casino.
False. I’ve been to a number of casinos, and they bore me to tears.
TJBM has eaten a squirrel.
Not that I know of…but ask me about that raw horse I ate one time.
TJBM is so hungry they could eat the butt out of a skunk.
False at least right now.
TJBM thinks it takes a great deal of skill to back up 2 semi trailers at once.
I can hardly walk in reverse. So mad props to anyone who can do that without jack-knifing themselves over a cliffside.
TJBM has appeared in porn.
Haha…not on film, but I have been a porn star in my intimate relationships. Oh to have my adorable young womans bod again pffft! lol

TJBM knows the Thriller dance.
Ummm… I know parts of it. Does that count?
The jelly below me likes big butts and they cannot lie.
Yes, it’s sort of a family motto.
TJBM needs to make their butt less big.
True, workin’ on it, but right now I’m sittin’ on it. lol
TJBM is over 50 and fighting middle age butt spread
Guilty as charged!
TJBM would like to bring in a happier subject than my enormous kiester!
Sure, let’s discuss the glory and divinity of the almighty cheeseburger!
The jelly below me has experienced a tonguegasm when eating certain foods.
I had a lobster burrito recently. Oh. My. Gaaawd!
TJBM likes fish tacos
Love them, we make our with talipia. cubed and fried with flour / corn starch mix and lots of chili powder.
TJBM is going to have fish for dinner or lunch today.
Well…now that you mention it…I might just have to go for some shrimp, french bread and spinach dip. Pffft….it’s Friday, fuck the diet. lol
TJBM loves french bread and spinach dip
TRUE.
TJBM likes Mcdonalds but doesn’t want anybody to know.
I like it and I don’t care who knows. Except my boyfriend. I don’t want him to know!!
I had one of the Southwest chicken wraps the other day, pretty damn good. Hanging head in shame. lol
@Leanne1986 You forgot the TJBM so I shall take over. haha
TJBM had shredded wheat for breakfast
No, I had PANCAKES….AW,SNAP! Gawt em frum mu frizzer.
TJBM likes fruit on their pancakes, but not frum the frizzer :0
OMG. You said that word. I’m running away for a while.
TJAM should come back. I’m sorry my post upset you.
TJBM forgives me? I was having fun, but not now. I feel left out that I wasn’t here for history making, but it’s history.
U silly goose! It’s just that when you see the P word, everyone takes off their clothes and runs around nakid and screaming! WITH the lights ON!
No, I don’t like fruit, or shells, on my pancakes.
TJBM has discovered the wonderous joys of the Frizzer Thread!
Long ago in a place far . . . .
TJBM thinks we should look under the pool. ;>)
Yes, quickly or shell just run!
TJBM wishes God would open that thread back up….or…..we could start a new one with the same title and details! Like a TJBM thing!
The Frizzer is one of the top three questions here. Ever. CIA is another one. And the third one is Vagina Nose. :D
The jelly below me is a sweet newb who will now go do a Fluther search on Vagina Nose.
Well, true and false. I’m not a newbie but I have never heard of Vagina Nose! Do I really want to go look??
TJBM says Fluther is still full of [REDACTED]
Full of JELLIES! pant pant. Didn’t know running nekid was a requirement. Got slapped in the face so hard I nearly lost consciousness.
Maybe what I just posted in social under candy will evolve that direction.
Vagina nose? I was in the navy, never heard of any sailers coming down with that. Sounds serious.
TJBM has taken medication for vagina nose, which didn’t help, resulting in surgery. (Stu?)
No, it turned out I was having a baby.
TJBM has only found one reference to “vagina nose,” but lots and lots of questions about vaginas and now their eyes hurt.
TJAM can look in meta for the recent question about Fluther memes for a link to vagina nose.
What about me?
TJAM forgot about me, TJBH.
And what about me??
TJBM wonders how many responses this question will receive before it dies out.
No. This is incarnation #48. This question was first asked in, like 2010. See here. IT WILL NEVER DIE!!!
TJBM doesn’t know what a DWAGON is either.
True, I do not, but I did learn about anal bleaching today, I am forever scarred. WTF! lol
TJBM bleaches their anus Now, I too, must run away from this horror.
Dwagon
Oh God @Coloma. I’m having the worst day. I learned about Vagina Nose and now anal bleaching and all within the last 5 minutes.
TJBM thinks they should take their dwagon and go home.
True, to the land of make believe where their is no anal bleaching because nobody has an anus. lol
TJBM must say goodbye now gotta run, byyye, see you lateeer!
No way! I’m having the time of my life. There has been more ridiculous banter today. I have laughed so much today I think I twisted something.
TJBM wears a uniform to work,
We can be goofy, fasure! Bless our hearts.
False. Well, I don’t have a job, but when I did it was business casual.
TJBM is ready for bed and it’s only 4:30 p.m.
False. I’m ready for bed, and it’s only 5:30 PM.
TJBM wonders why people “friend” someone on Facebook just to start a fight, then whine when they’re virtually pimp-slapped across the face.
I haven’t experienced that.
TJMB is waiting for a TV show to begin.
False. I have not had a TV channel since the 1990’s.
TJBM admits to having kissed a girl and made her cry.
False. I almost kissed a girl when we were both married. I said we can’t do this, both of us have people who count on us. She said you are right, and this isn’t the first time you made me cry.
TJBM is about to tell an awesome story
Only if you want to hear a horror story about winter driving in a semi truck.
TJBM thinks the sound of a Expresso martini sounds really good.
Ummmm…no. lol
I’ll take my expresso and martinis separately thanks.
TJBM had the most amazing mexican food for lunch
Nope, just a Frisco melt. I’ll take an espresso cocktail, though (I will NOT call it a “Martini”. A Martini is Gin, Dry Vermouth, and exactly three Big Damn Olives. One can also make a Martini with Gin and Vodka, dry and sweet Vermouth and lemon peel, but only if one is James Bond.)
TJBM will share their favourite cocktail recipe.
I am partial to champagne cocktails. ⅔rds good champagne, ⅓rd raspberry juice and fresh raspberries floating with a lime twist on the side. Oh man….happy times! lol
TJBM likes pretzels with creme cheese
Why, yes, creme cheese and pretzels is great!
TJBM thinks sausage is gross.
True, I do, and especially the neon yellow sausage served to me on an Air China flight a few years ago. I fear it was made from a little yellow doggy. lol
TJBM found a bag of pistachio nuts today. I did, I did, unopened and shelled in a grocery cart…score. lol
Unfortunately, I did not. And I love pistachio nuts.
TJBM likes walnuts and fruit (such as Blackberries or Blueberries) in their oatmeal…...providing they eat oatmeal.
I love walnuts with fruit, but not my oatmeal. I love fruit with my oatmeal, usually raisins, or banananananas, fresh raspberries from my back yard, craisins.
TJBM reads on their toilet.
False. I’m never there that long. There was a whole thread dedicated to this question a while back.
TJBM is afraid of Head Cheese, whatever it is.
Yum. Head cheese topped with a thick slab of blood sausage! says the vegetarian facetiously Chitlins, anyone?
TJBM drools.
Well,only when I’m not feeling well in my sleep.
TJBM likes pink puffy slippers.
No. I ain’t no ballerina! Give me my fluffy, dangerous leopard spotted slippers any day.
TJBM REALLY wants to hear a story about a trucker and ice and winter, too!
A trucker named Squeeky. Trying to wrap my mind around this. “Breaker breaker. lookin’ for that old Squeeky. You out there Squeeky? Got us a bit of a situation. 10–10 on the side, waitin’ for Squeeky.
We don’t do the breaker,breaker type talk any more since we don’t use CB radios,the drivers up here use VHF radios they transmit almost 10 times further than a CB.
Our type talk would go like this,( SQUEEKY you on this channel?)get the idea?
TJBM thinks truckers are crazy,for driving on some of the road conditions that we do.
I think EVERYONE is crazy for driving on the road conditions we have, especially in Oklahoma.
TJBM gets frustrated with drivers who don’t alter their speed or anything during bad weather conditions.
No, no tear in my beer! Just gluten and stuff.
TJBM loves it when a car blows past them doing 90, when it’s icy and crappy out, then sees that same car a couple miles on down the road, off in a ditch.
LOL @reijinni Was it a Weight Watchers meeting room, or what? I AM that jelly!
TJBM takes pleasure in the misfortune of others.
No, well….maybe a little bit if it was my jackass ex husband, he moved to Texas, so I figure the devil is right at home. “Houston, we have a problem ” Not my problem anymore. lol
TJBM has a problem
YEAH,I HATE the stupid drivers on icy roads.
TJBM has a hard time getting motivated in the morning.
Nope. I was up and out the door before sunrise to volunteer with my youngest son today.
TJBM has a hobby they only do in fall/winter.
Not unless you count feeding the woodland critters through the cold and snow. The turkeys have gotten kind of militant about having corn out for them. We try to make it fun, for us and them. Sometimes I fill ice cream cones with a mixture of corn meal and butter, then stab them onto the ends of low, bare branches. The deer love finding those.
TJBM has known the romantic joy of horseback riding in the snow. If not, they should give it a go. Not just snow on the ground, but while big, slow, lazy flakes fall.
False. I want to move to AZ and instead of a fake fireplace in the winter, have holographic snow for the window. Turn the AC down, turn the snow on, put on a sweater and have a cup of eggnog. Get up the next morning and put all that crap away for another 364.
TJBM has made and eaten snow ice cream.
Yes! Well, my Dad did. I need to find a recipe. When Dad made it we had to collect the snow. He cautioned us not to collect yellow snow. And my dad didn’t make it. Mom made it. But it was Dad’s idea. So he gets all the credit. The 60’s sucked for women!
TJBM has made homemade ice cream with Milky Way bars.
False. I have no distinct memory of making ice cream. Only a vague recollection of hand churning.
snow + sugar + milk = snow ice cream. Flavoring (it’s a sin not it use almond) optional
TJBM enjoys a nice piece of burnt toast, now and then.
Um….no. I have this little thing about ingesting carcinogens….it’s no bueno.
TJBM has an unwavering desire to barbecue steaks or chicken at least once a month.
Well, having them, yes both, but I don’t have a grill.
TJBM would just go next door when the neighbors are gone and use their grill.
False. My neighbors are little old nosey ladies, the only thing they grill is the local gossip mill. lol
TJBM HATES nosey old folks
I hate nosey any folks (old) has nothing to do with it.
TJBM wants a Rum and coke.
Sounds great, but it’s only 9 AM, so I’ll stick with coffee for now.
The jelly below me has jumped on a trampoline.
I loved jumping on a trampoline as a kid!
TJBM hates haters.
That seems like a lot of hate. I avoid haters. I dispute them, I resent them. I miss being able to play on a trampoline.
TJBM has stolen something from a neighbor as a child.
I used to steal from the grocery (for some reason I have a vivid memory of stealing a block of cheddar cheese), but we had no neighbors.
TJBM has had a dry roasted peanut in their nose.
False, but…I did get a pussy willow bud stuck in my nose as a kid, long story, but one should not use their nostrils as pea shooters. lol
TJBM has a fun lunch date with friends today
Well…no. Watching foot ball and eating waffles with my husband.
TJBM is going to the Doctors tomorrow because they can’t take this anymore!
Take what? Do you have a waffle or a football stuck in a body cavity?
TJBM hates syrup
false ,LOVE,LOVE real maple syrup.
TJBM sometimes puts peanut butter on their waffles.
I LOVE syrup, on bacon, on sausage, on ice cream, on PANCAKES! o_O
TJBM wants butter with that!
Oh yes! Smothered with warm, melty real butter and home made syrup. When you’re gonna do it, do it RIGHT!
TJBM suddenly got really hungry and decided to go off their diet until after breakfast.
Pffft! I’ve been off my diet since Friday afternoon and today I am having mexican food and beer for lunch with friends.
TJBM has a trauma food they refuse to eat. Mine is creamed corn
Yes…mine is corned beef in cheese sauce. It just looks and tastes so nasty, but my Dad loved it so we had it once in a while whether we needed it or not. Dad always called it SOS. It did not HELP when he eventually told us what SOS was. At the dinner table. With a pile of that steaming crap in front of me!
TJBM has been traumatized by something being explained to them.
Potted Meat.
Factory farmed animals
TJBM can tell a funny joke in less than 4 sentences.
What did the fish say when he swam into the concrete wall? Dam!
(There! Broke my own record!)
TJBM just heard an urban legend that new appliances and stuff come with instructions.
If they do, my husband never learned to read them! Bazinga!
TJBM has a partner who leaves the finer duties – like assembling bicycles – to them, as well.
No, the hubs is a mechanic. I just offer insightful suggestions as he’s working, which he really appreciates whether he knows it or not.
TJBM has a parther who leaves the finer duties—like cleaning the floor around the toilet, on their hands and kneeswith a wash cloth, where a mop won’t reach—to them.
Yes, actually. However, if I didn’t live here, he’d do it himself (I think).
TJBM is blonde.
False. But, I believe I could play one on TV!
TJBM believes moonshine should be legal.
Ew. No. Why would I want that?
TJBM thinks some foods should be illegal because they’re just nasty, liked chipped beef in cheese sauce, aka, SOS. With good reason.
True, that hideous invention of your father should be outlawed for sure!
TJBM loves champagne
No! I hate fizzy anything.
TJBM does like fizzy stuff.
True, champagne, soda, but not alka seltzer. lol
TJBM likes ginger snaps
I don’t think I do, but then again, I don’t think I’ve ever had them.
TJBM likes sherbet ice cream after eating jalapeno poppers.
And who doesn’t?
TJBM wants the day off tomorrow.
Oh yes, today is my only day off, savoring the last couple hours before bed. lol
TJBM wishes they were a somebodies pet
Um, watching my twin grandbabies with their awesome Mom makes me wish I was a baby. Just get carried around, do what you want, fed when you open your mouth, sleep when you get tired, no worries. I wish I was a baby.
TJBM wonders how anyone can get so involved in a sport on TV that they lose their religion (metaphorically speaking.)
Ugh, so true!
TJBM had a really fun day
Naw, but we got a lot done, and that counts for something.
TJBM is out of time. For what?
I am. I don’t know.
TJBM thinks the more refined we get as a society, the more allergic we get.
I do. Too many chemicals that we know too little about. I’m also wondering if it doesn’t have something to do with the prevention of childhood disease.
TJBM owns at least one item over 100 years old.
True, my china hutch.
The jelly below me has fuzzy houseshoes.
Fuzzy on the in side only. They’re shearling wool.
TJBM needs to go back to bed.
False, I need to get up off my butt and accomplish something_!
TJBM could sure smell better!
I work with dogs so yeah, I probably could smell better, depends if you mind the smell of dog or not!!
TJBM had some good news this morning.
Yep.
My son’s had this awful-sounding cough for about a month now. The stars have aligned so that my rent and car insurance were due on the same day, so I couldn’t afford to him to his primary care doctor. It was bad enough this morning that I took him to the emergency room.
Lo and behold, the cough is just a cough, and not pneumonia.
TJBM had good news today, too!
Not unless you count the email telling me I can save up to 15% by switching to GEICO. Maybe better news for @Seek_Kolinahr . LOL
TJBM is planning to have something else instead of turkey for Thanksgiving.
Quite possible. I don’t know. Haven’t gotten that far.
TJAM isn’t fully geared up for the day yet.
TJBM is rip snorting through their Monday!
Pfffttt. Not hardly!
TJBM needs somebody to light a fire under their butt.
True…got the Monday blues over here….not ready to tackle the week again.
TJBM wants two tickets to paradise
Mmm….I need 12 tickets to paradise cuz it wouldn’t be paradise without my kids/grandkids. But they get their own paradise homes on the other side of the island.
TJBM needs to replace their thermostat.
False.
The jelly below me is a mischievous little boy with a pet tiger.
Haha, beat ya!
False. I love my dumb old thermostat. Dumb electronics and appliances rock!
TJBM fantasizes about fluffy slippers.
True!
TJBM joins me in damning WWFC to a day without chocolate for THAT trick.
Hey, now, that’s just crossing the line…
Okay..it’s finally clear, @ibstubro is a multiple personality, answering his own questions. lol
What…well…I think the WWFC are a bunch of neanderthals true. lol
TJBM has a cleft palate
@ibstubro you can’t answer your own question!!! I don’t think. Well, there is nothing in the rules that says you can’t…but you can’t!
False. I used to have a mess of scraggly, really crooked, funky teeth, but the roof of my mouth is fine.
TJBM is going to break the rules.
Everywhere but Fluther.
TJBM Will Not Work For Chocolate!
@ibstubro broke the rules AGAIN!!!
No, won’t work for chocolate. Will work for money though. :)
TJBM is hungry but can’t decide between jalapeno poppers or chocolate.
^ Duh. Both.
TJBM wonders why people ask such obvious questions.
Yes!
TJBM doesn’t know how to drive in snow.
I can’t have both! That’s too much!
False. I know how to drive in snow.
TJBM hates it when people climb up their butt in really bad, snowy, icy conditions.
I have zero tolerance for that crap, and even less when it’s a cop, at anytime. Those idiots think they own the road.
TJBM just woke up.
^^^obviously! Now, I bow out in deference of @Coloma
Dueling responses…ready, set,....GO!
TJBM beat me to the punch
No, she lost! I was supposed to slip in above you!
TJBM likes to play the card game “Speed.”
No, I am not speedy.
TJBM loves CHEESE!
Oh, I do! I do! I want to make a homemade 5 cheese lasagna and put MORE cheese in it!
TJBM thinks high speed chases are dangerous and can be avoided.
Probably not. You can’t make cops not chase. They’re cops, after all. They’ll either chase, or kill. Such a dilemma.
TJBM is going to buy a new form of transportation. What is it?
A bicycle. Some day.
TJBM wishes the damn dogs would just stay outside!!
The only dogs in here are the tired, old ones at the end of my ankles.
TJBM is terrified of land sharks.
Uh, sure (what are they)?
TJBM doesn’t like cold weather.
WHAT IS A LAND SHARK??? OMG!
No I do not like cold weather.
TJBM is going fishing for a land shark for @snowberry.
I. Can. Not. Find. SNL’s. Land. Shark. I don’t know how ithat’s even possible…but I can’t! In the unforgettable words of the Geiko Lizard, SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!
The only thing I can think of is that awful beer.
TJAM is not as resourceful as TJBM.
Perhaps, perhaps not.
TJBM has to do something soon that they really, really, do not want to do
Well, odd. It’s not that I don’t want to do it. I do. I just don’t feel like doing it.
TJBM is going to post a VIDEO of Land Shark!
False. I can’t find one either, the still was a feat.
TJBM admits defeat easily.
No, I don’t. That seems to be a problem sometimes.
TJBM has about 50,000 digital pictures on their computer.
Nope. If I knew how to record from one of my dvds to my computer, I would load some land shark footage’. In the early days of SNL when the cast was still learning, but always entertaining, there was a bit they did about land shark. Jaws was still quite fresh on people’s minds. Maybe they had a shark suit , or part of one, just sitting around, and tried to figure how they could use it. Dunno. Always the scene opened in an apartment, usually someone alone, usually female. A knock would sound at the door. Jaws theme would begin to play. When the person asked who it was, they would get the reply land shark. Sometimes that worked, sometimes the shark would have to try again, claiming other identities. Always the door ended up being opened, a foam shark head would slide in and gobble them up. It loses a lot without the visual, it definately plays best at night, and a funky cloud of smoke made it even funnier. It got to be really predictable, but like some of these long threads, sometimes the best part is anticipating what we know will come up. The land shark retired long ago, and I think he’s in a frizzer under the pool.
TJBM skipped all that and went straight to TJBM.
Put your DVD in the computer, down load what you want to Youtube.
LOL “funky cloud of smoke!” What was it, he would say he had a telegram….and then she asked him if he was a shark, or something and he said, “No ma’am. I’m just a land shark.”
TJBM knows “CHEESEBURGER CHEESEBURGER CHEESEBURGER PEPSI!!!!”
Nope. Haven’t had either in years.
TJBM has- or had a bird.
False. Birds are not a pet I ever considered. Maybe it has something to do with having watched “The Birds” about 20 times as a kid? Never missed it
TJBM has seen The Wizard of OZ every year for more than 7 years in a row at some point.
Probably. I never kept track, but I own it on dvd, and we watch it every spring since I got it, Sometimes also other times.
No chicken, cheeseburger. No pepper, Pepsi. I can’t load to my computer. All I have is a laptop with no extra gear.
TJBM has an excellent bottlecap collection.
No, but on a related subject I have considered making a trivet out of wine bottle corks, but that sounds too much like work.
TJBM liked to turn over rocks as a little kid to see what was underneath.
TRUE! I was a HUGE salamander fan. I loved horsehair worms. And there were bugs in the creek that made homes like bagworms, only using sand instead of evergreen clippings. The creek was my chief childhood entertainment.
TJBM remembers flying paper kites.
Yes.
The parents of the jelly below me used to have to watch you very carefully, or you’d eat bugs and other stuff. LOL
Eeeewwwww! NO! My brother ate bugs, and sand, well a couple of times the sand was because I SHOVED HIS FACE DEEP INTO IT. My parents had to watch me for my x games. Before old enough to crawl, I climbed out of my crib onto a window sill to sleep in the sun. The blind was pulled down, so my mom thought I was kidnapped. She found me when she raised the blind to see the police number in the phonebook. When I did learn to crawl, I climbed to the top of the bi level end table and nearly nose dived. By age three I could climb the doorways to the top. I could REALLY go on, but I hear the yawns.
TJBM wants a massage and soft music, and PANCAKES.
I’ll go for the massage and soft music. lol
Oops lol
TJBM says ” Pssst” a lot
Not in a week or two.
TJBM has a night job. What is it?
I work midnight shift hours although my work is more than just a night job. I’m a military policeman.
TJBM has saved a lot of money in the past by shopping for something good on Black Friday.
Heck yes. I got a terabyte hard drive when they were still fairly new. It eventually crapped out on me, taking many family photos with it. My backup was lost in a move.
I’m told it’s possible my stuff can be recovered, but I’m too afraid to mess with the hardware.
TJBM doesn’t wanna get up today…
True, I feel like hell, but I’ve got kiddos to see off to school, so it is what it is.
The jelly below me is a morning person.
Yes, when I’m up for it.
TJBM has a sore throat.
I did over the weekend, but it got better yesterday.^ TJAM thinks I’m a man?
TJBM knows I’m not a man, just a woman with a hard thirst for life, unwilling to be limited by kitchen and bedroom duties. HA!
I do now! LOL.
TJBM likes to ski.
False. Never tried it and too old to start. Well, too fond of being warm to start.
TJBM has a hot-tub.
When I fill fill the tub with hot water I do.
TJBM has a wonderful outdoor living area where they spend most of their time when they are at home.
Ha. Only on the handful of days that this great white tundra I call home is temperate. I do have a nice porch swing..just less than 2 months worth of potential good weather days to enjoy it!
TJBM has wild animals in their yard. (Well, good morning Mr. Coyote.)
True, all of them. Foxes, coyotes, deer, skunks, possums, squirrels rattlesnakes, wild turkeys and the occasional black bear and cougar. It’s a wildlife circus in this area.
TJBM is having coffee
I do. And they come into the house to visit sometimes
TJBM was so excited to beat Coloma to the comment they forgot to post their TJBM question.
But….I BEAT you Coloma! How did you get in there??!!
LOL….is it possible to beat yourself?
TJBM has a cat sitting next to their computer purring loudly
I love opossums, lots of teeth and really cute little hands
No. No kitties.
TJBM likes to sing.
True, just not very good at it but sing I do anyway.
TJBM knows that Opossums have the most teeth of any north american mammal, 52 to be exact, and that their body temperature is too low to incubate the rabies virus?
Yes, she learned all of those facts (except I didn’t know about the rabies thing…interesting) after she peed on one in the dark while camping. They are also very non-agressive and would rather run than fight, unless a cop stomps on their tail then they’ll sink all of their teeth into the cop’s shiny new boots and TJBM will just laugh, HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!
TJBM recently had a wild animal parked in a corner, about 10 feet behind them, who was quietly watching TJBM type a description of them on fb, while waiting for animal control to show up.
LOL, no. Mostly we’ve caught the wild animals ourselves and released them elsewhere.
TJBM would like to catch a wild animal.
Maybe the feral cats we’ve seen outside. I worry about how they’ll survive the winter.
TJBM has a road trip planned for next week.
False, I wish I did though.
Poor kitties!
TJBM has a soft spot for cats
True. I went to a friends house for dinner the other day, and the first thing I did was pet kitty.
TJBM is an insane old pajama wearing werido who thinks possums (or, as they’re known around MY house, radiated rats from Hell) are cute.
I’m not old! But I do think possums are cute. Have you ever looked deep into the eyes of a sad, sad possum? Sniffles.
TJBM has picked up a stray and made it their own.
We were stray magnets when I was a kid in the country!
We even once collected a possum in a paper sack. The cute little thing was playing sleep, and we wanted to help it. Have you ever looked into the eyes of an enraged possum, baring it’s teeth and hissing as it blocked the landing to the basement??
TJBM has enjoyed a entree made with the meat of wild game.
Many times; deer, elk, wild boar and rattlesnake.
TJBM has a can of rattlesnake meat in their pantry
False. If I’d seen it, I would have bought and consumed it. On several occasions I’ve tried to talk someone into getting me fresh rattlesnake to cook.
TJBM enjoys blowing – er – ‘natural gas’ bubbles in the bathtub.
Ew no! Because when they hit the atmosphere it kinda wrecks my bath!
TJBM doesn’t have any idea where in the US they live anymore.
Sadly I do, in the land or sour milk and moldy honey
TJBM wants to leave the country
Yes. I want to go to Texas.
TJBM hates flying.
False, I love flying and traveling, but I wouldn’t mind taking a slow boat to China. lol
TJBM had raisin bran for breakfast
Ew no. I don’t like “things” in my food.
TJBM is freakin’ freezin!
False, I had a nice hot shower and fresh jammies.
TJBM no longer eats hotdogs because they’re afraid of inadvertent racial inferences.
False. I just can’t eat hotdogs with mustard on them, or I will be considered racist.
TJBM has something they need to do today.
True…getting ready to launch my rocket now
TJBM would like to stay in their PJ’s all day
Maybe. If they’re clean. But I can’t do any kind of work in them, because then they’re dirty and I have to change into something else when I go to bed.
TJBM likes hard work.

TJBM is planning a light dinner supper evening meal.
Mmmm….false. Pork chops!
TJBM makes a killer home made cranberry sauce
No….......
TJBM doesn’t really want to see a penis in a movie.
It depends. Staring role, or cameo? Claymation?
TJBM spits.
True,but only in disgust.
TJBM Thinks the universe revolves around them.
Me and my baby Martian nephews, yes!
TJBM tries to be polite to everyone, even the ones who don’t deserve it.
Yes, it takes a lot to really piss me off but when I am look out. lol
TJBM is easy going
For the most part. But there are a few points where I have a no tolerance stand. A few particular people know what those issues are, and if they’re smart, they won’t push it with me.
TJBM has ice cream in the fridge. What’s your favorite flavor?
False. My ice cream is in the freezer. ;-) It’s hard to beat chocolate ice cream with cold milk poured over it to form a crunchy/slushy shell!
TJBM has used the term, “Wooly booger” in the past 30 days.
Nope. Isn’t it one of those fuzzy black and brown striped caterpillars that crawl everywhere in the fall?
TJBM is scared of snakes.
Tralse. I can’t say that they don’t scare me, the sneaky little bastages, but I’m not scared of them per-sea. I don’t shiver at a picture or squeal at the zoo.
Wooly Worms are caterpillars, Wooly Boogers are usually men that look like Wooly Worms
TJBM if forced to choose between microwave and TV, would choose microwave.
Well, now this poses a problem. I can’t cook with a T.V. and the microwave has lousy shows this time of night. I’m not sure!
TJBM is a big Batman fan.
500 is my limit of answers.
I’m going to start a new TJBM post.
@ibstubro Tapping foot, clicking fingernails on the table.
Damn it! I wanted to start the next one! MOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!! @ibstubro stole my thread!!!! I never got to do one! But you wind up with this new kid and within a week he’s doing threads!
@ibstubro You’re adopted, by the way.
True. Mom, can I have a new car?
TJBM has to wait another 475 responses before re-starting this thread!
Nope, I’ll have to be the responder.
TJBM has a fireplace in their house.
True,but don’t use it much.
TJBM has no idea the stress Transport drivers face everyday.
Oh, I can imagine very well..I HATE driving around looking for addresses. Ugh!
Wait…WTF…how did I end up in this time warp, part #48 is a dead horse now. 0-o
True, ye are in the glue factory.
TJBM sees dead horse whisperers.
Every once in a while I do and they kind of creep me out. Hopefully it’s just a phase.
TJBM was not impressed by the lackluster and silly “Paranormal Activity” movies.
They scared the crap out of me!
TJBM is sleepy.
True but I always am when one has to get up at 3:30am to go to work.
TJBM is thinking dirty thoughts right now.
True, at any given minute.
TJBM Dislikes overcooked pasta, a lot.
True. Flaccid noodles just don’t cut it. lol
TJBM has a lispth
False. I have a drawwwl.
TJBM’s house makes a lot of strange noises, frequently.
False, but, a huge pine cone did zing off the roof the ther night, scared the crap out of me. lol
TJBM is craving a Denver Omelet
Uncertain what a Denver Omelet is, so no.
my house is under a walnut tree. there’s about a month of non-stop thudding.
TJBM has totally forgotten TJBM #49.
WTF! True!
I thought this was part #49. Well damn…stuck in a time warp.
TJBM is stomping off to find pt. 49, never to return
Not necessarily. I’m still contributing here while donating my valuable answers to pt. 49 also.
TJBM learned how to type in a high school elective class.
Sort of… I learned how to “hunt and peck” in computer class. I learned how to type quickly without looking at the keyboard by having to pound out quick messages while raiding in World of Warcraft. :D
The jelly below me still uses the “hunt and peck” method.
Yeah,but I never took a typing class.
TJBM has never operated a vehicle bigger than a pickup truck.
True. That would be a disaster waiting to happen!
TJBM’s favorite flavor is cherry.
At Sonic I drink Sprite Zero with cranberry (and extra ice, Route 44 size, $1.35 tax included between 2 and 4 in the afternoon) so that probably a favorite.
TJBM is now jonesing for Sonic!
I’ve been jonesing for Sonic for 6 years now. I had to quit eating fast food when I was diagnosed with diabetes in 2006…..and Sonic was one of my all time favorite fast food restaurants. =(
TJBM eats fast food at least 3 times a month.
Lately, that’s true. But I don’t eat a lot, rarely anything fried and never meat involved. Oh, and I blanch at spending more than $3. lol
Have you ever heard of Carl Bissingers in St. Louis? @Bluefreedom Finest sugar free chocolates I’ve heard of.
TJBM loves snow.
Milo here: I thought I did, but then I decided I didn’t.Here
TJBM usually looks up unfamiliar words in the dictionary.
Yes I do and it happens almost exclusively when I’m reading books. And it’s much easier now because my Kindle has a built in dictionary and search feature.
TJBM believes, on average throughout the United States, that school teachers are woefully underpaid.
Definitely true!
Because my computer is woefully old and slow, I’m going to direct attention
