It comes in a spray-bottle. ALL Used Snark dealers spray their used snark threads with that shit. They assume that used snark buyers expect them to stink, that way, and just won't buy them, unless they have that 'eeeewwww' smell. They're probably right about that...

Giraffe has a can of that and he sprays his armpits, crotch, and ass with it every morning.

Gulf-finger has his own pit thread.

Time to play guess the poster!

Quote:

I am very picky about almost everything sensory. But while in my youth I considered it a mark of my rarified and educated aesthetic sensibility, I now consider it more just being a lot more sensitive (in a neutral sense of that word) than most people. Taste, touch, sight, sound, all of it. The reason I might prefer classical music to rock and rock is that rock is so loud and repetitive it’s painful. I can’t listen to rap because of the macho aggression inherent in it – aggression makes me sick to my stomach. Even when it’s about something positive, the beat is aggressive and staccato. Like that. Mass produced products feel soulless. I literally feel how soulless they are, compared to things made by hand. It’s an uncomfortable life, frankly.

Poor victim me, check

The rarified and educated aesthetic sensibility threw me, but my first guess was correct.

My hatred for misanthropes is warring with my sympathy for the mentally ill with this poster. (Not Broomstick)

She is one of the posters whose whole persona is just grating. She has such an elevated opinion of herself, while also always acting like she is a victim. She hates the world and is so much better than everyone else! She thinks the Olympic Opening Ceremony was offensive to Christians, but of course she didn’t watch it because, as she loves to brag, she has never owned nor watched TV in her life.

She has said that she would murder 90% of the human race if she had the power.

etaoin shrdlu 30th July 2024 07:44 PM

Well that’s just sensible resource management.

Beckdawrek 30th July 2024 11:00 PM

The thread is "Things I'm a snob about". That's not being snobbish. That's having a sensory disorder.

I have that to a degree. It can be fixed. I believe she may be autistic.
I can't believe she said she would kill people, that's sicko in another way.

But ..she has chickens who live in her house. And again. Another mental disorder.
They're fucking livestock. Not in the house. Never in the house.

Gives me hope tho'. At least we know people aren't visiting or coming for dinner(no KFC allowed) that means she has no possible victims of her murderous ideation.

Good god

If all you know of it is what you've read online the going consensus is it's about the Last Supper and how awful that it is.

But it's that other thing with Dionysus. Why do people only read the sound bites, headlines and Reddit? And, just not know it's some idiot somewhere yakking.
Even respected newspapers and news sites do it. You gotta read the article.

Sputnik 31st July 2024 05:28 AM

The articles? I just look at the pictures. I didn’t know there were articles.

Yabutt. When we get day old replacement chicks we start them out in our sun room with heat lamps. We handle them daily and give meal-worm treats. When they no longer require supplemental heat they are moved yo the barn/coop, but they remain very calm and enjoy treats.

Did I ever tell you guys about the summer that I was a carpet cleaner? $5/hour, me and this other guy would get our appointments and drive around in this truck working for a ChemDry franchise. Most houses and apartments were fine but we definitely saw some shit. Generally the worst were the bird owners, parrots, not chickens but still. We’d pull away a couch and there’d be trails of bird shit down the wall of which wasn’t my problem and on the carpet which was. Fun job overall though.

I don't know Ulfreida and disfavor violence as a rule, but anyone who refers to their "rarified and educated aesthetic sensibility" without irony deserves to have their trilby knocked off by a headslap from their own Moleskine journal.

Having baby chicks for awhile in a box, in a contained area is another thing all together.

Grown ass hens wandering around the house is not good. Shit just falls out their butts with out compaction. (That should be compunction, but I like compaction too ;). )
If they have bumble foot or some fungus, upper respiratory thing, humans can catch it.
You know this is how Avian flus start.

I bet the birds are not too happy about it, though...

Sputnik 1st August 2024 04:25 PM

Why do you think the birds revolted at Bodega Bay? Bumblefoot.

Beckdawrek 1st August 2024 10:13 PM

I have a green bumblefoot right in my Avatar.

kayaker 2nd August 2024 05:50 AM

I worked (volunteered) in a wildlife rescue geared mostly to birds, specifically raptors. Bumblefoot was a constant concern.

SisterCoyote 2nd August 2024 03:45 PM

Bumblefoot affects rodents, too, and it's pretty awful.

C2H5OH 3rd August 2024 02:06 PM

Jesus fucking Christ! Just how much of a moron do you want to be???

Love_Rhombus, incredible moron... "A genuine question about Kamala Harris’s “DEI hire”

Just how stupid can you get? Oh, right, Durper... 'nuff said...

Sputnik 4th August 2024 01:31 AM

Years ago, when affirmative action was in force, they called it the 3B’s. Brown, black or boobs. So, if a woman got a job, it was because of the 3B’s, or she slept with the boss. Now Republicans call it DEI. Which means “someone other than the white dude got the job.” It totally strips a person of credit for being competent and capable and worthy. Typical trumpy-Republican dog whistling dogma.

Vinyl Turnip 4th August 2024 06:09 AM

"Bumblefoot?" That's a name for a slow-witted Narnian dwarf, not a serious disease.

"I just heard that your wife has cancer. I'm so sorry."

"Yeah, blusterpuff. Stage 3A."

"Don't give up hope. My aunt was diagnosed with jinglefizz in 2004 and is still doing great."

Zeener Diode 4th August 2024 10:17 AM

So the Strange Orange Machine rolls into GA after Harris makes headlines for her the sprawling rallies, and immediately calls out Gov Kemp (R) for not helping him "win" the state in 2020. Um, should someone tell donny that he still has a trial waiting for him here? On second thought, let him shit the bed.

Old-timey names for medical conditions have always cracked me up. One of my gf's horses had some skin lesions that I told her looked like Dermatophilus congolensis, a bacterial infection. I suggested cleaning with betadine, which cleared it up.

Later, she told me the farrier told her it was rain-rot. Yep, rain-rot is the old-timey name for Dermatiphilus infection.

thorny locust 5th August 2024 07:42 AM

Is it much more likely to happen in wet weather?

Zeener Diode 5th August 2024 09:34 AM

It appears some dumbass was drunk posting and left this nugget in the wrong thread. What makes it noteworthy is the time stamp. Some idiots can't wait to start their day on a bender.

So the nickname makes sense; and is based on observation, in good scientific technique. Probably dates from before microscopic organisms could be identified and named.
