107th Obsequious Banter Thread: Ugly Sweaters Edition

[Yukon Cornelius]

Damn, just heard of the Christine McVie news. RIP. My favorite singer in the band, soulful voice with body.

There’s nothing you can do to redeem yourself from this atrocious take.

Exhibit A of how to know Bif is correct.

Holy f***! That's not just a damned good kitty - that is a damned HERO! Give him some ham from me please. I'm not joking - do it.

If you really want to tickle his whiskers, chicken is his jawn. But I will give him the ham from you. As soon as it gets here.

Clocks tickin

Tree is up and settling

if you had aaaaany issues with the tree stand...I highly recommend the "krinner tree genie" XL. It's super easy to use compared to those nasty cheap screw stands. I've had mine like 10 years and it's a marriage saver for sure.

Weighing in on the pie controversy, flaky crust pies are THE WORST. I don't care how moist your grandmother/wife/slam piece makes it, it's like a mouthful of corrugated cardboard. Cookie or graham cracker crusts are the only way to go.

Only acceptable dessert pies:

* Chocolate (and its many variants)
* Banana cream
* Boston cream
* Pecan
* Hair (not exclusively for dessert)

I tasted one bite of the pumpkin pie. Beefette is an excellent dominbaketrix so as far as pumpkin pies go it's delicious. She also just made fresh whipped cream.

Unfortunately, a delicious pumpkin pie is still akin to dipping a ladle into a hoarder's ruinous toilet-stew and drinking it deeply.

And now the dog is trying to force his tongue under my eyelids to lick my eyes. See what happens when you eat like this

sad news, one of my favorite singing voices.

It is a bummer she is gone. I loved her voice. Her and Stevie was like listening to angels.
It is funny that Fleetwood Mac made their best music when there was so much drama with the band.

It is funny that Fleetwood Mac made their best music when there was so much drama with the band. Was a fan of The Pretenders as well. She will be missed.
Brass in Pocket was the first song I cued up after hearing the news.

Chrissy Hynde didn't die, I don't think.

I’ve put on a few pounds that I’m not fond of so I bought a folding stationary exercise bike.
Not that there’s anything wrong that I can tell but I should have asked here for suggestions first.
First time riding any bike in I don’t know how many years. I’m an idiot so I’m sure I over did it.
313.5 calories burned, 65 minutes, 13.02 miles.
I didn’t set the seat to the right height so my knees are going to kill me come tomorrow.

Oh now I feel stupid. I knew that and had a total brain lock

I will consider, but coming from someone who likes citrus pies?

So sad. Everyone will always remember her voice and for great reason, but man she played an amazing piano

I am once again here to tell you that automerge is the worst feature ever rolled out in the history of the internet

Literally got that one lol. First tree, so needed a stand. Got the L though because we have 10 ft ceilings. It was so easy. Looks like we'll have to tweak it a bit, but that should be easy

YES, this is the absolute definition of #1stworldproblems, but looks like my ankles, as it should be physiologically, aren't really happy w anything more than 30-50min really slow runs anymore. Being a run-acholic, this will be... an adjusment.

Ew. Absolutely not.
