We Quit Cigarettes

[BantyChooks]

Knives aren't the only thing they disapprove of in a law-abiding citizen's pockets. Then they hire anyone at all to man the baggage cart--while they're taking pictures of your naked self under your clothes with their porno x-ray machines and making you take off your shoes... I got a car. They can keep their dam airplanes.

No. It's gone here. Has been for a week.

Thanks, @aart

Maybe for shivving potential purse snatchers?

She could not have shivved anyone with that tiny little dull bladed knife made for scraping the walls of a pipe bowl and tamping down the tobacco. I am sure I still have one around here somewhere from my pipe smoking days.

Trump is on TV now....I'm not listening but I bet he is scaring the crap out of millions right now.

OH shit! I hope Dallas is'nt watching! He won't want me to come at all.

The virus itself isn't scaring me so much. It's the threat of quarantine that has me freaked out!! That and supply/economy disruptions due to humans acting like lemmings.

This whole thing has not only been blown out or proportion, but also handled really improperly. Great, lock sick people and everyone exposed to sick people away for weeks at a time. That'll totally get more folks to come forward for testing. Yeah.... no. I would not go to a doctor for the sniffles unless i was absolutely dying right now, thanks to all this mass hysteria.

Not a word from officials or media about taking actions to boost the immune system.... just doom, gloom and panic. Somebody must be making a lot of money off this.

Personally I think the press wants to discredit someone and cripple the economy, but that's just me. Hey, if it makes you feel better, when I went to Sam's club today with garlic on my list (I'm almost out of pickled garlic and would like to start a new jar) but it was all gone. So were a bunch of other odd things including all the vanilla (even the fake stuff) (but not tp, even though people were wheeling whole carts of it out of the store) I think the garlic got cleaned out by people seeking to boost their immune systems, fwiw. Anyway I bought a garlic kit at Runnings. I will plant it and have lots and lots of little garlic babies to pickle. Patience...

Maybe it was nostalgic, like her dads or her grandpas. If you’ve got a really fun family, maybe it was her grandmas.

That simile! Lemmings! Oh, I don't know why, but that gave me a laugh....
Also, R2elk... why are you laughing at my line about creepy people looking at a pictures of women? *Narrows eyes suspiciously*.

Umm, because it's pretty darn funny ?

I believe that @Sapphire Sebright was referring to me in her original post about declining to post a photo.

I think that's a compliment.

Nope, the way my mother was, if she had known what it was for, she would have thrown it away. It was a fairly new knife and definitely not an heirloom.
