Friday funnies

Let's go for broke with the first one. If you are already clutching at your pearl necklace after the first, don't read on. 





Numerous Crocs were spread around Sister's home. I tried them and I hated them. They reminded me of the plastic sandals of my childhood. Stick to your Crocs John Gray of Wales. I'm not having a bar of them. 



How I wish his number was just 6 and not 16.

    Good ones, I especially like 2 and 3. I hadn't thought of Barney Frank in years, he was one of the good guys. No pearls were clutched here either.

    Too funny. I remember the first time I had a sore throat, too drunk to know why.

    Barney Frank was an amazing politician, honest pro-woman and truly democratic. Viewing today's dodgy politicians clarified for him that being gay, even in an anti gay world, is much more acceptable than being being a right wing, racist politician.

    I think that is Chris Wood on the right. He now plays for Nottingham Forest and has banged in a few goals this season. He is the only New Zealander playing in England's Premier League.

    Very funny, all of them. My grandson loved his crocs so much he wore them everywhere, except school, because they weren't allowed.

    I know in theory any pejorative term is reclaimable by those against whom it is aimed, but for me it's still a bit soon for "faggot."

      A fair call, MC. An alliterative alternative? Not fairy.
