Everyone at one time or another has a bad day or a bad week or a bad year. When your in one of these ruts it’s sometimes difficult to pull yourself out of it. Todays post is meant to inspire the readers and to lift their spirits a little. I hope it works for you!

I’m a huge fan of using quotations in my posts from the rich, the famous, and the wannabe famous. I thought today would be a good day to give kudos to the one person who supplies us with endless quotations that are almost always funny, truthful, and many times sarcastic. That writer is Mr. Anonymous. I did a little research this morning and came up with 15 quotes from Mr. Anonymous that I really liked and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. Here they are.

  • Criticism is the disapproval of people, not for having faults but for having faults different from ours.
  • The Eiffel Tower in Paris is the Empire State building after taxes.
  • One reassuring thing about modern art is that things can’t possibly be as bad as they are painted.
  • An average film is where the actor has more lines in his face than in his script.
  • Modern art is when you buy a picture to cover a hole in the wall and then decide the hole looks much better.

  • Dancing is the perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire.
  • Hollywood is Malice in Wonderland.
  • If white bread could sing it would sound like Olivia Newton John.
  • Television is a box that has changed children from an irresistible force into an immovable object.
  • Parents never appreciate a teacher unless it rains all weekend.
MR. ANONYMOUS

  • You can tell a Harvard man, but you can’t tell him much.
  • Psychology is the science that tells you what you already know in words you don’t understand.
  • Eating food with a knife and fork is like making love through an interpreter.
  • If you speak three languages your trilingual. If you can speak two languages you are bilingual. If you can only speak one language you’re an American.
  • “A Hollywood marriage is one in which the couple vow to be faithful until after the honeymoon.

And now I’ll offer up one of my own quotes:

“OLD AGE AND RETIREMENT ARE JUST KARMIC RETRIBUTION”

08/26/2025 “POLITICAL LANGUAGE”   Leave a comment

Now that 47 has begun his presidency the media and its leftwing troops have been forced to fill the airways with a few new and stupid additions to the English language. Fake News, Unalive, and Lib-tards to name a few. The new-but-old standbys will once again be introduced by the lib-tards such as Nazis, Dictator, and King. Everyone is well aware of the phrase (Fake News) especially in the US and the UK. The UK citizens are being fed a constant stream of BS by the government and the BBC and if they dare to complain they’re sure to be arrested by the Thought Police. It’s a bitch living in a country that has no First Amendment but instead they sill have their effing Monarchy (Too Bad, So Sad):

In the original draft of the Bill of Rights, what is now the First

Amendment occupied third place. The first two articles were

not ratified by the states, so the article on disestablishment

and FREE SPEECH ended up being first.

I could list more but what’s the point. The words are meaningless for the most part and are only used by politicians who’ve have lost their party and their minds. I’ll be listing a few words in todays post that aren’t commonly known but maybe the lib-tards can adopt a few of them for their “speechifying” (a shout out for Mark Twain who used that word often).

  • ROWELL: the revolving star on the back of a cowboys spurs.
  • COLUMELLA: the bottom part of the nose that separates the nostrils.
  • NITTLES: the punctuation marks used to denote swear words in comic books.
  • OBDERMITION: when an arm or a leg “goes to sleep” as a result of numbness caused by pressure on a nerve.
  • FERRULE: the metal band on the top of the pencil that hold the eraser in place.

  • ARMSATE: the hole in a shirt or a sweater through which you put your hand and arm.
  • RASCETA: the creases on the inside of your wrist.
  • OPHYRON: the space between your eyebrows
  • PURLICUE: the space between the extended thumb and index finger.
  • KEEPER: the loop on a belt that holds the end in place after it has passed through the buckle.

😡😡😡

YOU CAN’T BLAME THESE ON 47(UNLESS YOU’RE A LIB-TARD)

07/05/2025 “THE DISTAFF SIDE OF THINGS”   Leave a comment

A few months ago I came upon a small innocent looking book titled 365 Women’s Reflections on Men. I’d made a few purchases of books that day and the owner of the store threw that little book into my bag as a freebie. Since I never refuse a book from anyone, I took it home and it’s been on the shelf for months. While I’m not partial to the negativity brush that feminism paints most of us men with, I think it’s only right if I pass a few tidbits your way and give some of these overt feminists the credit they rightfully deserve.

  • “No man can call himself liberal, or radical, or even a conservative advocate of fair play, if his work depends in any way on the unpaid or underpaid labor of women at home, or in the office.” Gloria Steinem
  • “Protectiveness has often muffled the sounds of doors closing against women.” Betty Friedan
  • “Dear, never forget one little point: It’s my business. You just work here.” Elizabeth Arden (to her husband)
  • “The only jobs for which no man is qualified are human incubators and wet nurses. Likewise, the only job for which no woman is or can be qualified is sperm donor.” Wilma Scott Heide
  • “Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor.” Queen Elizabeth I

  • “I think women are just as moved by appearance [as men are], but they are willing to accept a situation where the man is less attractive because of the “who earns the bread” situation. Madonna
  • “American men say “I love you” as part of the conversation.” Liv Ullman
  • “If you never want to see a man again, say, “I love you, I want to marry you, and I want to have children . . . they will leave skid marks” Rita Rudner
  • “I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night.” Marie Corelli
  • “I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man, I keep his house.” Zsa Zsa Gabor

I AM WOMAN . . . HEAR ME ROAR

02/24/2024 Poetry by Children   Leave a comment

I thought we should visit some children today and read some of their outstanding poetry. Many of these kids are between the ages of 4 and 13 and are from various English-speaking countries around the globe. I find their poetry extremely innocent and pure because they write what they feel without any real awareness of political correctness or the many biases that seem to be everywhere these days. Enjoy them.

THE SUNBEAMS

It’s a sunny, sunny day today,

There’s not a fluffy cloud in the sky.

The sky’s all blue in a light blue haze,

The orange sun is shining as it stalks along the sea,

And leaves a shiny golden path, for me to walk along.

TREES

The trees share their shade with

all who pass by,

But their leaves whisper secrets

only to the wind.

GOD

I wonder

how God lives

in heaven,

when the clouds

seem to be collapsing

like broken birds.

MY FEELINGS

I am fainty,

I am fizzy,

I am floppy.
