“Joke is on you” they said when my trick backfired.

backfired is what my brother's old 57 Chevy did a lot, meaning more so that not..

[bobthehobbyguy]

Not ,knot, and naught are words that sound identical and require context to determine which one is being spoken.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Spoken English is apparently just as hard to comprehend as written English for a particular kind of "educated" idiot.

[bobthehobbyguy]

Idiot can refer to one  that is not very bright or to refer to someone with obnoxious behavior.

Behavior is a learned/taught behavior of inestimable value.

[Calb56]

Value should be determined by the individual. 

[bobthehobbyguy]

Individual choices determine one's outlook on life and will impact our happiness and attitude.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Attitude be hanged; the world is going down the toilet, and pretending it's not, or looking the other way with your fingers stuck in your ears while you go "la la la la la la la..." does nothing to save it.

TYPO

[stitchdup]

its time for a xanax

[Ace-Garageguy]

Xanax won't, unfortunately, raise your IQ.

[misterNNL]

IQ system for measuring human intelligence has been around since 1912.

[bobthehobbyguy]

1912 was a simpler time and I'm  sure that there were people just sure the world was going down the tubes then , and guess what we're still all here obviously

[Ace-Garageguy]

Obviously, lots of folks still think denial is a river in Africa, while they insist on conflating apples and oranges.

Apples & Oranges is one of Pink Floyd's wilder songs, along with Scream thy Last Scream (Old Woman with a Casket)

[bobthehobbyguy]

Casket is something we will all end up in eventually.

[Classicgas]

Eventually we will actually finish a model.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Model building doesn't necessarily have to be about completion, particularly if the process is where one finds the real enjoyment.  

[misterNNL]

Model building and collecting is a centuries old obsession.

[NOBLNG]

Obsession with perfection, which constantly eludes me, is what keeps me from finishing models.

[bobthehobbyguy]

Models and modeling techniques are the things that bring most of us to this site.

Site update at the Doe Network has reported that law enforcement at last (after 65 years) has identified Philadelphia's "Boy in the Box".

[NOBLNG]

Box art has frequently lured me into a purchase.

[bobthehobbyguy]

Purchase  the things you want and they will give you pleasure. 

Edited December 21, 2022 by bobthehobbyguy

[Ace-Garageguy]

Pleasure-seeking through consumption can become an endless cycle of disappointment.

[bobthehobbyguy]

Disappointment is getting a glue smug on the model you are finishing when adding the final piece.
