The Extrapolation Files
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives. But really? I hate people.

2020-2021 Photo & Meme Dump
In no particular order, here are some photos and memes I've had on my phone for quite a while, and I want to dump them herein, to free up space on my phone and perhaps a reader might find some use or enjoyment (if possible) from them.
Also worthwhile mentioning, I don't give a shit if you're vaccinated or not. Wear a fucking mask to help stop the spread. The virus doesn't care about what *you think* your Constitutional rights are.

Love Your Dick? Get The Stick!
Literally, TODAY, I was having a discussion with several friends regarding how if "I" were on some kind of advisory board, I would have used the fact COVID causes ED as a huge selling point for people who have resisted getting vaxxed thus far.
I even went further into detail (of my speculation, mind you! I don't have any hard *ahem* figures, this is all me spitballing ideas) about how 75% of people love dick:
Hetero men love it/their own
Gay men love theirs and others
Bi men & women love it
Hetero women love it
Note: The list would (AND SHOULD!) continue to include Intersex, Questioning, Pansexual, Demisexual, LGBTQ+, et al; however, I'm not well-versed enough in all the nuances. So forgive me for not including everyone--I would not want to be disrespectful one way or the other, however, I do acknowledge these sexualities/genders exist.
So if 75% of people love dick, why would they want to gamble with the potential for ED?
Anyway, something must be happening cosmically because another friend, who was not privvy to my speculation, shared this link with me: "Mask up to keep it up": Preliminary evidence of the association between erectile dysfunction and COVID-19
I just love the graphic:

Farewell, Fartiste
To catch you up--The Fartiste retired end of December 2019. I was surprised to learn I wasn't the only one who found her repellent. One of our former "boss men," even said to me directly, "DO NOT even let me know any details about her retirement party!"
TBH, I wish I didn't have to go. But I sat 24" from her (thereabouts) for the five years leading up to her retirement--it wouldn't look good if I ditched the party. I went and sat with friends (and no, when I say friends it doesn't include JabippyLoo, the co-worker who emailed me a photo of a particularly prodigious morning dump which is still sitting in my Photo Bucket if I ever get around to reactivating my account). I sat with friends and spent time catching up with former co-workers who went on to greener pastures.
Her last day was supposed to be December 20th; however, for some inexplicable reason, she showed up on the 21st. And when she started rustling about getting her coat at the end of the day, the actual very last day of her employment, I quickly got up and went to the restroom, and lingered there until such time I was certain she had vacated the premises. I could not muster up enough give-a-fuck to wish her well YET AGAIN before she left. We were never friends. She made that quite apparent. She isn't entitled to one more drop of fake give-a-fuck. Running to the restroom was as close to an Irish Goodbye as I was able to do.
She has been gone a year and a half and her influence still casts a pall in our office for me and one other admin, especially during evaluation time. One might think I'm paranoid, but I am certain she undermined both of us every chance she got.
And, well, JabippyLoo (while I'm at it) proved herself not to be a friend (and she was the reason why my blogging hopped from here to WordPress), and she finally retired in September 2020. I just wish I could find a way to get her out of my head. But she was a parasite--or as my dad would describe such people: the birds that sit on an elephant's ass waiting to pick out the peanuts from their shit.
More jocularity in the next post, hopefully, but trying to do a bit of housekeeping regarding The Fartiste and JabippyLoo, who were both featured heavily in this blog and other blogs of mine.
I'm here. I ain't dead yet. Trying to find the funny.
It's Been A While...
Trying to get back in the swing of things; and it has been so long since I tinkered with my WordPress blog, I cannot figure out how to migrate all my old stuff HERE. So, I did the next best thing, I cross referenced it in my list of blogs I follow--so if you want the old shit it's there.
I am hoping to get back into the swing of things, and try to warehouse crazy posts I find online, and maybe occasionally grouse about work.
So for my first post in a long time, I present Slip ‘N Slide Game Show Shoot Stopped By ‘Explosive Diarrhea’.
I still have all my other blogs (food, health, crochet, and ones devoted to each of my parents), but this will be the blog where I warehouse and spotlight the crazy.
I missed the sense of community I had from blogging, and hope to rebuild that bigger, stronger, faster, akin to the Million Dollar Man.
I hope you all have been well.

Have I Introduced Her Yet? The Fartiste.
Anyway. Since 2014, our office relocated to a high rise, and to use trailer park parlance, I have gone from a cubicle akin to a double-wide down to a single. Further unpleasantness added, and despite my attempts to relocate my workstation elsewhere within the confines of the office suite, with exception of the flimsy fabric partition separating us, we are sitting approximately 18-24 inches apart.
We are seated so close to one another, I can hear her digest her food. I also can hear her mutter under her breath (but really loud enough so I can hear it) blurt out "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" when I am conversing with anyone else (it could be about something innocuous like a Thanksgiving menu). "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
She sits in her cubicle (a double-wide, mind you) farting her ass off, saying "excuse me!" to no one in particular; however, when she walks past my cubicle, she farts with abandon--and get this--NO EXCUSE ME.
I don't take issue with the farts; I do, however, take issue with the lack of courtesy given the lack of an "excuse me," when I know she is capable of saying it--she's just incapable or unwilling to say it as she strafes my perimeter with her noxious emanations.
For the first few years here in the new digs, I'd casually mention the farting to the younger secretary--who, I could tell by her facial expression, that she doubted what I said was the truth--until one day, off in the distance, she, too, heard the familiar clarion call of the Butt Trumpet.
As evidenced by a previous blog post (a bit deeper into the posting history herein), I keep a can of Febreze at the ready on my desk for such occasions.
It has now gotten to the point where I could be starting my day hosing down the immediate surrounding area of my cubicle because of her willful flatulence.
She fails to say "Excuse me" when she crop dusts my cubicle; however, if I sneeze, she's quick to dispense a "God bless you." Fuck her, and fuck those God bless yous. Her God bless yous remain unacknowledged on my end, and I hope my silence is received as precisely that: A silent FUCK YOU--much like her farts that go without an "excuse me" are a not-so-silent FUCK YOU.
There are other bits of hostility going on too, and in October, things hit my personal tipping point where she caused trouble for me to the extreme point where I didn't know if I'd get fired (or worse).
I've known all along she's noxious--but now things have reached a toxic level.
So in the meantime, I have gotten myself into CBT, I read The Art of War (as well as The 48 Laws of Power) daily, and I have The Fartiste on a very tight diet (wherein she gets precisely ONE sentence from me per day--less if I can manage it). And I am plotting my escape.
Anyway, if you'll excuse me, I have a chapter of The Art of War to read.
