Oh, a new catmath principal! No(No)=ssfs
Mind-boggling!
We will explain this to you when you are older. {G}
Or when you sister is older.
Now, Clean your room!
Well, it looks like…I mean, it’s obviously a…Anyone can tell you it’s …I got nuthin’.
:stares long and hard at the thing:
*gasp*
An extremely disgusting nooneshouldeverwanttoeatwhatcomesoutofthat cotton candy machine?
:looks again:
No, I think those are cobwebs. Back to square one.
[Corey] Top left looks like a protein skimmer inside a rather hideous aquarium, Top right looks like a petri dish with some rather energetic growth, and bottom left is a close up of said (sad) protein skimmer. [/corey] A PSA maybe? What not to do to our piscine friends?
Does a “protein skimmer” inside an aquarium suck up all of the fish? Well what other kind of protein is in there?
Things that make you go ewwwwww….
That’s an aquarium? Looked to me like a store’s glass display case. (Please notice I am *not* trying to figure out the crusty yellowed things.)
But, on fifteenth look (or thereabouts), I wonder if that second picture is the inside of the whatever-it-is with the top taken off… with cobwebs.
No? Oh! Ohhhhh… *nods head yes*
No.
But dad said yes!
In lieu of knowing what this thing is…
So, I’ve forgotten to put the water in the coffee maker. I’ve forgotten to put the filter in and just dumped the grounds into the basket. I’ve even forgotten to actually BREW the coffee. But never, NEVER have I done what I almost did this morning…put the coffee grounds in the water reservoir. I’m glad I stopped myself, that could have been a real disaster.
I had cereal, and went to the drawer for a spoon, and came out holding a knife. Then I went back to fix it, and came out with a fork. Only then did I manage to think long enough to actually grab a spoon, which I promptly attempted to eat my bowl of milk with. I then took the Frosted Mini Wheats out of the fridge and poured them into the bowl, put them back in the pantry where they belong, and had my cereal with no more trouble.
You pour the milk in the bowl first? Or was that part of the brain-fail?
I usually just go to throw my plate in the trash, or put the orange juice in the dishwasher.
Yes, that was part of the brain-fart.
I put the salad dressing away in the microwave the other day.
I put the milk back in the bathroom towel cupboard once. I was making cereal then needed to use said bathroom. Guess I decided the milk needed to come with me.
Luckily my wife found it a few minutes later.
I often find cereal in the fridg and milk where the cereal goes …. of course the milk may also be somewhere in the family room.
Well, at least the cereal didn’t get all soggy during the silverware confusion. 😉
Every bowl has a silver lining…
True, but it was ever so slightly chilly.
Don’t you mean every bowel has a silver lining?
*Eats a spoonful of silver nitrate*
I’m not even sure what that saying is supposed to imply.
The other day, I was getting flatware and silverware out of the dishwasher for the meal I was going to make (a hardware mise en place of sorts).
Felt all accomplished when I closed up the d/w, to find I’d not only already done just that, but that I had set up for a meal I was not making (and had decided against because I was missing several key parts of that meal).
And people sometimes wonder (aloud) why I cook with beer so often–it’s because the beer is open, really . . .
I made bifstek quesadillas tonight for supper.
The tortillas were exactly where they were supposed to be.
The cheese, the picante, and the last of the left-over bifstek were all in the fridge where they were supposed to be.
The comal was upon the stove.
Tortillas heated up in the skillet until they folded over politely. They then filled with picante, steak and cheese in reasonable order. They then grilled in the skillet under a bacon press (makes the cheese ooze out and go “s’p’sp’sp’sp’sp’s’sp’ssss”) as expected.
Iced tea went right in the glass.
Made a tasty supper with no complications, and a clean kitchen before warching the movie.
Why do I feel like there is some scimitar poised Damoclean . . . ?
Bridgete, this may sound strange, but these coffee mishaps may be a sign of greatness in your future. My best friend in high school was top of the class, but she would do these crazy scatterbrained things, like putting her socks in the freezer or pouring juice on her cereal. She too went into law and moved up through her firm very fast. Just remember, when you make senior partner, someone else makes the coffee for you 😉
Awesome! I always knew being scatterbrained was just a symptom of my mind being too full of other stuff. 😉
I had a similar friend in High School. Took her three tries to pass her driving test. But she graduated with honors from the University of Chicago with a double major in Art History and BioChemistry.
So the Grant Applications are beautifully Illuminated? {G}
I’m not sure she actually working, now; she moved to Alaska and is busy being a liberal rabble-rouser and home schooling her kids.
I went camping two weeks ago and didn’t have my cold cuts in the cooler when I went to make lunch. I found them in a drawer the other day.
GACK!!!!!
Luckily, they were vegetarian cold cuts, so the smell was not as bad as you might think. I would hope I would have found them sooner, in that case.

Awwww, two day old punchities seem just as fresh

Thanks!
Man, you guys just will not let up on that poor fider wench; bad enough everyone was calling her a norwegian craftsman, like being called a fider instead of a violá, but to call her mannish . . .
What?
Okay, so we know that part of the conglomeration is an aquarium/terrarium–I’m really more worried about the fact that the protein skimmer/cotton candy maker appears to be floating inside said aquarium.
I suspect Arthur Weasley has been introduced to the internet by someone, then, and decided to show off his floating protein skimmer to all us muggles.

The Ministry’ll be after him for this one.
Funny you should mention HP, my first thought was that “ssfs” was “no (no)” translatd into parselmouth. No means no, whether you’re muggle, wizard or snake!
I thought it was a machine for making cheese out of the remnants of your forgotten fishtank. I know when I get back from vacation and see little Nemo taking a belly up nap, I always think, “Man, I wish there was some way to recycle all this junk”.
Note to self: If Meredith offers cheese, politely decline.
But I have a lovely 4 year old Guppy. It was a good year for….well, not such a good year for guppies, but a good year for cheese.
Maybe sarajean can make fish-cheese soap?
We do not make the fish cheese soap. We do, however, make the fish cheese dip. I make it with Lionfish. The store brands use NotALionfish.
Served, I assume, on Not.a.Lionel’s tera cotta head?
You know, if I mixed fish oil capsules with my stinky cheese soap, I might be able to sell it to Bertie Botts…
Ugh, I just grossed myself out.
(Sorry for the lack of comments today, I was at a birthday party for my now six year old niece. I have never seen so many different shades of pink. Much sugar was consumed by all. I’m off to lapse into a diabetic coma now.)
Alas, earwax!
Yeah, I got nothing, either.
Except that I’m pretty glad I can’t have this. It looks like it would clash with my new poncho.

Nope, no poncho. And Mr. LRC wants his dinner, so I’ll play around with Gravatar some more, later.

Does it come with a Time Lord? Or do I have to go back to Craigslist to find one of those?
You need to get a permit first, cat.
And a sonicscrewdriver. Which, sadly, does not seem to have any Absolut content at all; just another grey goose chase, darn it!
And there will be a re-homing fee for the Time Lord. We want to be sure you will keep him as a pet and not just feed him to your mutant hamster.
Capn, has there been a time when it was ever clear what they put in those sonicscrewdrivers? I think they stoli the recipe.
About the time it seems they might tullamore, dhu they? No, just Laphraoig about leaving the rest of us lackavaulin.

If it really is a meth lab, then I think one of the

Did anyone else have visions of the “Taco Thong” in print?
No, but, once again, I suspect Steve Postis is a lurker (and not the cave-roof predator kind)
That’s okay. I didn’t want a Cotton Candy Machine of the Damned, anyway.
No, really.
Well, okay. Maybe a little.
I think that belongs to the wierd Gorgoroth thing in the basement.
On the other hand, Cotton Candy of the Damned would make a great band name (‘Machine’ just made it too long).
Ooh, yeah, that’s even better than Cotton Candy Dam (especially since only animal husbandry majors would “get” it)
“Gorgoroth’s Machine” has a very deathmetal ring, though.
Hit single “Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, I’ve got Brains in my Tummy” ??

There are some questions than need no (or you don’t want an) answer.
Acquaintances in the law-enforcement community.
Are you . . . Batman?
You called?
(Public Service Announcement: Batman and Robin say to always remember to clear your caches!)
Oh, do come on, Batsy! You’re honestly so bored with me that you’re responding to the distress signals of strange parrots on… hey. This site is funny! Hahahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahhahahahahah!!!!!!!
Like, totally LOL.
All I know about meth labs is that they need garden hoses for something. I had two garden hoses stolen out of my front yard, after the second time, I called the police non-emergency line to file a report, because at $20 each, those hoses add up. The officer filing my report told me that garden hoses are often stolen for use in meth labs, and that I should probably just hide the hose under something, because meth-lab builders aren’t very clever.
I can’t tell what this thing is (the upper right pic looks like a golden bowl in a centrifuge, flinging water out) but since there’s no garden hose involved, it OBVIOUSLY can’t be a meth lab. (ummm…)
You’d think that meth cookers would just get a hose while in target tying to get 13 pseudefrine tabs and holding up the line doing so . . .
The object in the photograph on the right looks a bit like a chicken-pot-pie.
Meth=chicken
Hey abwh, I’m no expert, but don’t you think this looks a wee bit like a meth lab?
I’m not sure; it looks kinda like it might be a meth lab.
You two are crazy! This is obviously a meth lab! I can’t believe you didn’t notice.
You guys! Everyone here in No knows that, in the cultural-oppressor language “ssfs” is the derogatory term used to demean and suppress the indigenous autochthones who deliberately engage in chemical destruction of their central nervous systems using synthetic stimulants.
In non [matt] speak, “Duh, meth lab; as if!”

[Isaac]Well, which is YSaC, contributors or advertisers?[/Isaac]
Sorry. Must be a bug going around.
Thanks Astro, I wasn’t here to catch that.
It was the meth. Or the chemo, it’s not too clear at this point.
ab, good cover. 8)
Who is that guy?
That’s what I’m asking.
There’s a gentleman at the door in a SWAT uniform asking about some crazy dude with a meth lab in his jet.
Mention anything about Bozeman, Montana?
Pretty decent encounter then, normally the swat guys hit the door with a ram and knock it down.
Or the ceiling, if your name is Ruttle.
Whoa, where am I?
*ahem*
[apology corey] I am indeed sorry for my reprehensible behavior. There was no meth influencing my actions. Fourteen hours of driving and a cooler full of Red Bull, however… still no excuse. Please forgive me? [/apology corey]

Brain is rejecting that this could be a Used (ick) Gororoth Grooming tool (shudder).
Not that I’d want to rinse it out after, either; but I’d like to think I’d not flog it on CL after having found it in the secret burial ground under the burned-down meth house used to be on, either . . .
I’m now going to go look for my lost cereal bowl (which is probably next to the caviar spoon and truffle plane).
I can’t even tell that it is a thing.
A few weeks ago I made a cup of green tea. I returned for a second cup and could not find the box of tea. We’ve not since found it in the cabinet nor in the bath, nor in the bedroom. We suspect I threw it in the trash.

One wood is the same as another in the dark, Grampdaddy. Or, so I have been told.
That’s what she said!
*runs back to getting things accomplished*
It’s obviously a coded message. Sparky’s partner in the meth lab managed to escape from the authorities and now Sparky is using CL to let said partner know that it is still not safe to come home.

(Hidden question) Do the cops have any clues where I am? = No
(Second hidden question) Is it safe to come home yet? = (No)

Clearly the poncho is too possibly awesome for Gravatar.
That is a distinct possibility. I’m gonna go look at pictures of cats with funny captions, now, to distract me from my lack of ponchod robot moose.
I don’t even have my robot moose. 🙁

[deutche corey]Anstelle von “Das is nicht für geshen” velleicht “Nein! Nicht für auf gesehen” besser werden geschrieben sein.
German diction is very positional, which makes the grammar “sound” odd to EFL speakers. Getting that “yoda” structure odd at first seems. The spiffy way one may dismiss with certain “to be” forms is almost like declarative Latin, too. Which makes our title today read more like “nothing remarkable to look at” as if it were merely a bad movie.
So, /instruction-command/”No. [This implicit thing here] Not for/or-to-be Seen/Seeing [is & will be the case]” is how I’d render it. Especially since it implies the “look at this, it is not to be seen” paradoxical.
[/polyglot corey]
Sorry, Capn. I speak German like a Spanish cow.
¿Su hablar alemán a la vaca español? {Sonrisa}
German is easy, just remember to sort by Time, Manor, Place first, and the verb goes last unless an imperative, then use the least number of words to do so (the sentences compound anyway).
That, and we needed the sort of pithy, witty, sharp we expect in our YSaC titles {g}
That, and the Latin came to me first: Vidi non invisi egro posco
CapnMac, you are right that German language order is difficult, but vocabulary and tenses are pretty important also. Your proposed sentence is pretty odd. Better would be something like “Das ist nicht an zu schauen” (roughly, “that’s not for looking at”).
Because: “Aufsehen” doesn’t fit the meaning you want (it’s not the same as ‘sehen’); and putting it in the past tense “auf gesehen” is odd – why should it be in the past tense? Also, in English one uses “for” differently than Germans do; “zu” is more likely in this case than “fuer.”

It’s reverse psychology! Clever way to sell your junk, tell people they CAN’T have it.
Definitely a protein skimmer.
hmm maybe this is just my criminal justice background but I immediately thought some supplies for a drug lab….maybe…
For those who are curious… a protein skimmer is a filtration device for saltwater aquariums that uses a pump to inject a frothy mixture of dirty saltwater and air (Santorum) into a reaction chamber. Protein, as well as other undesirable disolved organic compounds and microscopic organisms, are attracted to the surface of the tiny bubbles and float to the top, where the bubbles slowly overflow into a collection cup. The second picture is a look inside the collection cup, demonstrating how thick and dark (and thus effective, albeit disgusting) the skimmate is. The tank that this skimmer is in is a sump… a secondary water reservoir underneath the real aquarium.
So Grumpy Cat has her own salt-water aquarium? Cool.
