I noticed that this thread seems to be missing since the transfer so thought I would resurrect it. If I'm wrong and it is hiding somewhere then let me know.
OK, it's been a while so lets see if we can get this going again.
I killed a spider with a shoe earlier. I don't know how he lost the other seven.
Every selfie I have ever taken is also a portrait of a confused, elderly man trying to figure out which button to press on his phone.
People don't like me reading over their shoulder on trains or buses, which is ridiculous as I'm not even that loud and I do ALL the voices.
Red wine and fish certainly don't mix, in fact mine died.
I've just bought the dictionary as an audiobook, which says it all really.
Can anyone tell me what FOMO stands for? Everyone else seems to know.
I'm beginning to think my chiropractor is just manipulating me.

A Redneck Love Poem:
Susie Lee done fell in love, She planned to marry Joe. She was so happy about it all, She told her Pappy. So, Pappy told her Susie gal, You'll have to find another; I'd just as soon your Ma don't know -- but Joe is your half-brother. So Susie put aside her Joe and planned to marry Will, But after telling Pappy this, He said Well, there's still trouble. You can't marry Will my gal, and please don't tell your Mama, but Will and Joe and several more are your half-brothers. But Mama knew and said Dear child, Just do what makes you happy. Marry Will or marry Joe; You ain't no kin to Pappy.

A celebrated French physicist caused an on-line furor by tweeting a purported image of a 'distant star' taken by the James Webb Space Telescope, which in reality depicted an illuminated slice of chorizo. Etienne Klein praised the 'level of detail' in the star photo to his followers, but after thousands of comments and retweets, he admitted to the deception and pointedly warned that sometimes 'images that seem to speak for themselves' are fake. 'According to contemporary cosmology,' Klein said, 'no object related to Spanish charcuterie exists anywhere else other than Earth,'

I have had a thought - yes I know that is unusual and possibly dangerous but...
I have noticed that there is only 4 or 5 of us on this forum, there may be more lurking and that is good as at least they are there, and I was wondering if it is worthwhile asking the moderators if we can put an "advertisement" for the forum on the main page so that we can get more viewers and also more input. In these time a bit of humour (yes I spelled that correctly ??) can be helpful.

If I still lived north of Boston, I'd say it was a good "eye-dear". Like, my sister's name ends in an 'a', which is often pronounced as if it has an 'r' on the end of it, by speakers who live nawth uv, and in, Baustin.

This may be outta left field somewhere, but every time I see a picture of Elon Musk laughing, I think of MAD magazine's Alfred E. Newman, and the words, "Why Is This Man Laughing?" (That same saying had been used under a photo of a laughing Richard Nixon in one of Esquire Magazine's Year-end issues waaaay long time ago.) But to me ol' Elon, as outrageously rich though he may be, is just one GOOFY, IDIOT!
