the literal picking of the captains

 

[Giant YoYo]

[Over The Post]

80-90’s - it’s all the same from my vantage point

Oh FFS nek minnut it'll be Beerfish hassling me here with an "OK boomer" gif...

 

[Braklet]

That why I like Ginger Beer Brak... its sweet but not too sweet

Best I've had is Blenheim's #3, it will literally clear your sinuses:

Blenheim Ginger Ale

Costco occasionally sells your Bundaberg Ginger Beer here, which is also very good.

 

[Braklet]

What happens if you go straight into the toothy hole?

There are many old legends about toothy holes...

[Braklet]

There’s no bar too low here Bratlet, you know that

That sort of thinking is what gets me in trouble around here.

 

[Braklet]

See kids this is what to much weed does to you.

They did a 40th anniversary edition of their first movie's theme song...



Apparently the weed thing paid off.

 

[Braklet]

That drinky looks awfully suspicious!

 

[Braklet]

Isn't it odd how those guinness goggles make camels look desirable.

 

[Braklet]

vodka with a splash of fresh ginger juice*
*method grate fresh ginger into a muslin, steep in boiling water and strain and press out juice.

Best Bloody Mary I ever had included freshly grated ginger, directly in the drink.

 

[Braklet]

It's actually called bumping beautifuls when it contains Ken

Ken's just a skeevy old perv...

 

[Braklet]

I think there is plenty of gifs for that kind of thing...

Well, I for one think it's high time Ken grew a sack

Speaking of last night, a unicorn came up on fb marketplace. A high precision Italian watchmaker's lathe with all the fruit. Built like a brick shithouse, still had the original hand scraping marks on the bed. $1000. I call it a unicorn because bargains like that only come up every 4-5 years. And if I hadn't just downsized from my factory to a crammed-to-the-ceiling single garage...

Never learned how to machine parts... more's the pity.

 

[Braklet]

Yup. Punch cards, manually programmed with a paper clip. That's how I learned ALGOL in '79.

Thank the Gods I avoided that punchcard shit... first class to get edumacated on the original IBM PC. All the upperclassmen had horror stories about dropping their piles of punchcards before being able to read them, and having to manually collate them.

In high school, we were still using remote terminals on a shared PDP-11. The terminals had paper tape readers, but we didn't have to use them for projects.

Hmmm, this place is certainly educating, I'll give you that.

Talking of which, where is my offroad truck pr0n ?

Decided I want a Unimog, after delving into there history a bit more, Envisaged as a fast tractor, a vehicle of many coats for farmers and then the military, off-roaders everyone else jumped onboard with it's possibilities.
Always fascinated me in the Army as well -really ? 5 reverse and forward gears, it goes as fast backwoods as forwards.
We not be French, we don't advance to the rear.

Actually always wanted a Chevy Blitz, pretty much the same thing, but a little less common now.

 

[kenneyswarriors]

That sort of thinking is what gets me in trouble around here.

Well I'll be - Tentaive Braklet

 

[kenneyswarriors]

No, I'll look next week, already been down your rabbit holes a couple of times tonight.

As above

We’re all boomers in our own way. Or will become on. Or were one in another life?

This sounded better before I said it out loud

For alcoholic Ginger Beer you can't get better than Ginger Kid from Harcourt Vic. Kicks like a mule but tis delicious. Don't think it is exported though.

No, fixated on Ginger still. I've never tasted Hard Solo.
