noun: tchotchke 1.

evidentialist comments on Dec 29, 2019:

The word has been part of the Yiddish lexicon for ages. It probably comes from the obsolete Czech dialect word *czaczko*, which had a similar meaning without the cutsie connotations.

WonderWartHog99 replies on Dec 29, 2019:

I thought it was Yiddish and meant "cute butt on that gal." However, since I wasn't willing to do extensive research to see if I was right, I used what I found on the topic.

Eating silicon won't do anything. That being said, the real scare is the impossible burger uses soy. a plant based estrogen. If you graduated from high school, you'll know estrogen is a hormone related to breast growth. They shoot up chickens with estrogen for more white breast meat. They have been doing that to produce larger, cheaper chickens and big tit chicken generally show up on the school lunch menu.

More on topic, the people that don't like windmills are the ones who think they're unsightly and sometimes noisy because they're not oiled regularly. Those people think it's petty reason and come up serious nonsense why they don't like them, i.e. cancerous windmills. "I'm surrounded by **idiots**!" -- Dr. Evil.

(I tried to google it but was lead down blind alleys with worthless details about the amount alcohol consumed, types of beers, brands of whiskeys, yatta, yatta). From the sound of it, they're drinking 40% more alcohol than us gringos. **My people!** Seriously when my ancestors got off the ship, I'm convinced they said "We don't want any white women." Then they started showing the native American women the quirks of distilling fire water. Tribal women started exposing them to something called bitters, native herbs and exotic things like how to eat cattail roots. Due to the high rate of alcoholism among native Americans, tribal chiefs banned my ancestors from their tribes forcing us to accept white women as our fate. Today if you visit a reservation, you will discover you can't buy a stiff drink. **My people!**

WonderWartHog99 replies on Dec 27, 2019:

@Lorajay >Perhaps the Brits know what grits are Unless they've visited Dixie, they have no clue what grits are. Last I heard 75% of grits don't leave Dixie and are largely unknown outside the US. The major deal with grits is "doctoring" them. Without adding stuff to grits, it's like eating a hot soggy slice of white bread. Grits are normally served plain to visitors. The visitor is expected to do their own "doctoring." For most people that's adding adding plenty of salt and butter. However, when they're served to visitors nobody explains that to them and hence the poor opinion from people outside of Dixie. They figure it's gruel. I mix graded cheddar cheese to my grits. I used to top my grits with a pair of soft coddled eggs. Petunia likes me to crumble bacon and scrambled eggs in her grits. We both add too much salt. What she wants is Mari Gras style grits with shrimp and other ingredients I can't remember. Unlike other types of grits, the Mari Gras version is full dinner. For most people grits are **white** steel drum grown, although I prefer whole grain yellow stone grown grits because I'm a grits snob. Let's not forget the hominy grits either . . . . It's like oatmeal: unless you add **other stuff** to them, it's gruel. People from Dixie we view oatmeal as radiator sealant.

She hid my rusty drill bits while shifting around her clutter and wants me to do some improvements around here. I had told her either find my rusty drill bits under her clutter or buy me a new set. Additionally she bought me highly specialized cooking tools because I do the 95% of cooking around here. Want to see my jalapeno de-seeding knife?

I got my plumbing done yesterday, and turns out I got 3 invitations for today. I'll try to manage a couple of them. Why do people leave these invites for the last minute?

WonderWartHog99 replies on Dec 26, 2019:

>Why do people leave these invites for the last minute? You shouldn't ask. The major deal is not everyone reads your post on the same day you post it. Some of us wonder how cute you are and have no plans to do free plumbing. Wait long enough and you'll get the plumbing fixed without them. Of course, once that happens you'll have some thing to talk about with them. BTW, I have replaced my share of sink faucet washers. That's what normally screws up. There are two majors trick to that after you've turned off the water and removed (after many curses) the washer. 1) Take the washer to the nearest hardware store and use the magic words: See this? Me want this. Use those words on a hardware clerk. Otherwise you'll be spending far, far too much time looking through drawers trying to find **exactly** what you want. It turns out there are things hardware clerks refer to as "outlaw washers." These are washers that manufacturers discontinued. A clever hardware clerk will refer you to the oldest hardware store in your area where they got stuck with those washers 30 years ago and have been waiting for you to walk in the door. If that's the case, it'll be an expensive washer. Disclaimer: I used to own and operate a 70 year old apartment complex in Funky Town. 2) Buy ten of those washers. They'll wear out again. Over the next twenty years, you'll save trips to the hardware store. Unless it's an outdoor faucet and you have to replace it, you'll need a **highly specialized** wrench you'll need every twenty years. It lets you lie on your back, look up with a flashlight, stick the wrench in a narrow space where you can't get your hands and unscrew the faucet while every piece of rust under the sink falls in your face. Be prepared to spit and use your finest vulgarities. Wear safety glasses for obvious reasons. While faucet wrenches aren't cheap they're way cheaper than a plumber. Should I tell you I hate plumbing? I'm certainly not traveling 1,200 miles north (one way) to fix your faucet

@Triphid >Now, is it ALL possible that you can understand that tiny bit of information? Yea. You don't know where natives' solar observatories are. They're veiled rumors to you. Maybe they got them, maybe they don't. Only 10,000 words for us to get us to the point where you admitted you don't know either. I asked the wrong person. Now for some random use of capitol letters: >Royston Stanley, who last name IS the same as mine was my Great, Great Grandfather, many times removed by the way, a Ship Owner and Captain from the Glamorgan region of Wales also from precisely where my Great Grandfather was born and my Grandfather who later moved to Australia where my Father, Stanley Royston was born in 1905. Over a century has gone by since anyone in your family has **seen** a Cherokee. That's why you want to call them "Indians" a term they consider offensive. It's highly likely you know squat about them either. It's why I want to give you the grand tour of Cherokee, North Carolina, casino optional. They tend to gather at a chain restaurant you may have heard of, Pizza Hut. Abandon all hope of getting a stiff drink on the reservation. On Native American reservations the tribe bans the sale of fire water. For reasons best not discussed, Native Americans have a much higher problem with alcoholism than white people. They've abandoned their native foods, except for popcorn and fry bread. Fry bread has gotten hard to come by. They don't use the flour their early ancestors used because it's too hard to make from scratch. If they sell you fry bread it'll be made from bleached white wheat flour, which is cheap, cheap, cheap. Easier to open the bag than make acorn flour from scratch. You can read up on my great-great-great grandfather in the book *Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.* The natives called him Sad Eye (he married into the tribe) but the troops called him Custer's commanding officer. The book was a best seller here in gringo land. Only a few pages on Sad Eye. Not to fear. I don't expect you to pick up a history book.

Will you need a step ladder to get off that high horse? Now for a little higher horse ". . . "putting a Sugar Glider into a Striptease Dancer's Thong" would classed as Animal Abuse and a downright disgusting thing to do, both for the Glider and the Dancer, wouldn't you agree?" I disagree. I intended to present a laughable and ridiculous image. Not everyone gets my jokes. If someone **tried** to get into sugar glider stuffing in a thong, I have no doubts the critter would scamper harmlessly away from a screaming and physically unharmed stripper. Those who might try thong stuffing with a small live animal would be escorted, probably violently, by the club's largest bouncer. >So I hope you now SEE that they were just 'dumb, black niggers' as I tend to think you may have been inferring. I said I hadn't heard of Australian aboriginals building solar observatories. BTW, "aboriginal" means the oldest group of people known living there, not "dumb black niggers." American tribal groups would rather be called "native Americans" rather than aboriginals. Likewise, Druids would be British aboriginals. Since I hadn't heard of Aussie aboriginals leaving solar observatory sites **out of personal ignorance** I needed to ask a question with someone who **might** know better.

I want to be there when they throw you out of their casino for calling them Indians. My guess is you don't have enough native American ancestry for them to let you live on the reservation.

What it **doesn't say** is those who swear more frequently than anyone else are more intelligent. Has anyone quoted Stephen Hawkings or his ilk saying anything on the level of "Listen here you mother fucking bitch boy, you're just another dumb cunt in a sea of shit holes "? Nobody ever accused him of not knowing what that sentence meant either. As far as I know, he never said it either. Golly Wally, I know all the curse words as well. However many in this group can't want to find an excuse to use them, leaving other misspelled words and tortured grammar in their wake. That doesn't mean they're held in high regard for their unbridled brilliance in word choice. There's a reason the old expression is "Swears like a stable boy" instead of "Swears like brain surgeon."

Without the riots, the community's plight would have gone unrecognized. It reminded me of P.T. Barnum's maximum that there is no bad publicity.

@dan325 >Depends on what you consider a race riot, A large racial group with no central organization or leader that causes wide spread destruction both to property and to unrelated individuals or groups. It's not like people step forward to start a riot and get people to sign up for next Thursday after lunch to join in the melee. You don't know who's in charge and good luck in figuring out who was involved later. This eliminates the KKK. They select one or more individuals for their wrath and are highly organized. Mind you, I'm not supporting the Klan by a long shot. They aren't in the race riot game as well as other hate groups. > The fact that black rioters attacked Korean businesses in Watts should therefore be unsurprising, given the general types of people who are prone to rioting. As far as I know there are no studies that identify "the general types" of people involved in race riots. If you're involved in a race riot afterwards you don't step forward and fill out a questionnaire. You are indulging in wild speculation what makes an individual join a riot. The Watts rioters were reacting to white policemen killing Marquette Frye, a black guy, for a traffic offense. This sparked an outcry about the community's long standing racial discrimination by the whites. One of the things was supermarkets couldn't get financing to open in the community because the banking industry and white operating loan organizations. The exception was the Koreans who raised their own money to open stores in Watts without taking out loans, including food stores that sold fresh fruit and vegetables. Without the Koreans, Watts would be the typical inner city food desert. Additionally, white business insurance companies refused to issue affordable business insurance to the inner city. This made start up business in the inner city extremely difficult. Watts residents had a shopping list of complaints and went nuts after Mr. Frye's unfortunate encounter with the police. No organization at all. That's what riots are. As you may have already guessed, I followed the Wall Street Journal's coverage of the riots.

Remember the pizza joint that got shot up? Blame me.

If they were around, I'd skip attending the school board meetings along with the murder trial. Just give me the print outs and a willing publisher and I'll take the rest of the day off. Here's the real gig: editors and publishers have a rather loose feel what sells. That's why somethings get covered and others don't. If you've ever wonder why there isn't more news coverage about the Republic of Chad, it's because almost nobody gives a rat's patootie about Chad except in neighboring countries. Can't even find Chad on a world map? It's only the size of Texas. How could you miss it?
