red pills found beneath the sofa cushions, shorty 2

It’s one thing to take a clinically depressed ex-agency beet out for a couple drinks and Disney on Ice — either out of the goodness of your heart, or with the hope that a leggy, half-frozen chick in a twinkling foam Nemo head might take his mind off of Caspian Sea pipeline conspiracies, or (at the very least) keep him away from the Smack until that next manila envelope stuffed with government cheese comes sliding in through the secret mail slot you’ve punched into the sub-basement wall.

But it’s quite another thing to have that same fucking mopey beet misinterpret the gesture and — drunk on pomegranate daiquiries and career regrets — jam his rubbery tuber stem into your ear while you’re trying to tip the valet.

I mean, what kind of all night drugstore carries earwash capable of breaking through a sucrose orgasm, anyway?

Seriously, tell me. I need help over here.

    ….I would say, judging from the condition of your tennis racket, that would be an af-firm-a-tive Ripley….

    ….but you needs the kind’a help you don’t often find north of Tijuana Sparky….

  2. Pablo says:

    Ewwwww…..

    OK, you’re gonna need some warm salt water and a bulb aspirator, the kind you use to suck boogers out of a little kid’s nose. Also, a chef’s knife and a cutting board…for the borscht.

  3. Cowboy says:

    Jeff:

    Just don’t use this http://www.cnn.com/US/fringe/9602/02-28/ method.

  4. serr8d says:

    Jeff, you’ve g00gle suzerainship…what else could they do?

    My old grandfadder, MHRIP, always advocated blowing cigarette smoke in an ear for aches. Maybe the beet will post-coitally oblige.

  5. Salt Lick says:

    If he’s the same asshole that infiltrated Saddam’s palace in an Algerian beet salad and proffered the “slam dunk” intelligence on WMD’s, I hope he finds he’s way to a Cracker Barrel grater.

    Let your dog lick out the sucrose, but don’t get down on all fours.

  6. Dan Collins says:

    I recommend this, Jeff.

  7. N. O'Brain says:

    “…a sucrose orgasm”

    Just call him “Sweetie”.

    NTTAWWT.

  8. Carin says:

    Dude, all I got it Q-tips.

  9. Ric Locke says:

    Oh, man, don’t you hate it when that happens?

    I must say I can’t compliment your judgment. Pomegranite daiquiris are redundant in sufferers of “tuber flush”, who react strongly to saccharine. The emanations from Disney on Ice would put even mild case over the edge before Minnie ever shows up. I mean, there’s enabling, and then there’s entrapment.

    Pablo and Salt Lick are both on the right page, although I personally would go out back and immerse my head in one of the horse troughs for the slow count of ten, just to loosen the crusts before showering. In the mare’s paddock, mind you. The stud has more than a bit of a sweet tooth and might react inappropriately.

    Regards,
    Ric

    Jeff might want to make this sticky.

    The post, that is.

  11. TaiChiWawa says:

    Maybe it was a pathetic attempt at brainwashing — psyops wetwork. Or payback for the Disney troupe’s extraordinary rendition of “Boogie-Woogie Tuba.”

  12. Education Guy says:

    I once found a red pill behind my sofa, and with visions of animated vegetables in mind quickly devoured it, only to find out that my life continued as normal, if perhaps with a bit more internal speed for a few hours. In hindsight, it might have been a Sudafed, or a button.

    Live and learn.

  13. JD says:

    Finding Nemo On Ice. Oh, the horror. You are lucky Satch is not one of the matriarchy, or you would be subjected to High School Musical 2 On Ice. My brain, it still hurts.

  14. Slartibartfast says:

    Ack. Can’t get that image out of my brain, the beet sticking its root in my ear.

    Turnabout. Enjoy.

  15. Iggy Pop says:

    Of course I’ve had it my ear before.

  16. N. O'Brain says:

    “Finding Nemo On Ice.”

    He’s dead????

    Oh noes!

  17. Patrick says:

    All I can think of is a slurry of Dawn dishwashing soap and water, a toilet plunger and a 1-3/4″ firehose @ 150 psi.

  18. McGehee says:

    You really have to be careful around those root vegetables. A lot goes on under the surface.

  19. MarkD says:

    Hydrogen peroxide.

    It might not get anything out, but the bubbles tickle.

    I was going to suggest a power washer, but after what it did to my driveway…

  20. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    “Finding Nemo On Ice.”

    He’s dead????

    Oh noes!

    Is rice and nori involved? ‘Cause if so, I’m THERE, d00d.

    I think I’ll let this stand as a reminder of me.

    comment deletion?
    im close to that banning aren’t i?
    ;)

  23. Slartibartfast says:

    I know this goes without saying, but WTF is nishi on about this time?

  24. Darleen says:

    from Dan’s link

    With the wax removed, the rest is just icing.

    Looks like those devilishly clever Chinese are adapt at removing sugar-waste. Check out your local Chinatown, Jeff.

  25. Big Bang Hunter (pumping you up) says:

    ….How could I forget….It was the day the Germans marched into Paris…

    ….Oh Rick…..I didn’t want to hurt you…but I had no choice….

    ….They wore grey, you wore blue angel…..

  26. Rob Crawford says:

    I know this goes without saying, but WTF is nishi on about this time?

    Fixed that for you.

  27. Education Guy says:

    I’d offer advice to your beet seed problem, but it might be theoconish in it’s nature and could contain references to “Jesus”, “The power of the LORD” or possibly even the number of cubits of wood specified for a beet sacrificing alter, so nevermind.

  28. What kind of all night drugstore carries earwash capable of breaking through a sucrose orgasm

    Maybe you could ask Sheena Easton. She might know.

  29. Big Bang Hunter (pumping you up) says:

    – nishi: Calm down. Get a grip. False alarm. Its just the equal opportunity spam filter doing its job in its usual reckless irresponsible manner…

    – Chill. You’re still not that special yet. We’ll let you know if it happens.

  30. Slartibartfast says:

    yet

    Optimist.

  31. Sarah W says:

    And after the icing, is the cake-taking.

    An ear cleaner who’d been sitting quietly in the back pulled out an instrument that looked like a thick silver toothpick with a nub at the end. He stuck it into the corner of his eye, pushed it in a little and twisted it.
    Now, that is where I draw the line.

    Well yeah, me too. Even in college.

  32. Dan Collins says:

    This might work, too.

  33. McGehee says:

    BBH, why you wanna disillusion the ‘toon like that? If she decides she’s being persecuted and leaves, she gets to think she’s special, and we get to forget she ever existed.

    Sounds like a win-win to me.

  34. scooter (not libby) says:

    I suggest some of this, then get busy with an ice pick. Carefully.

  35. Big Bang Hunter (pumping you up) says:

    – Sorry guys. My motives were sincere.

    – I thought maybe if we gave her a cluebat we might avoid her usual 75+ comments about “What nishi did on her summer vacation”.

  36. Swen Swenson says:

    Have you tried the little park at Arapahoe and 16th? If you can’t find something there that will help it’s probably not available.

  37. Karl says:

    I would have held off had I known this was less sticky.

  38. Jeff G. says:

    I didn’t delete anyone’s comment.

    Man, I hate the internet. Hobbes was fucking dead on.

  39. Slartibartfast says:

    I’m more of a Calvinist, myself.

  40. cranky-d says:

    Ba doom boom.

    The internet sucks. Computers suck. But I think things would suck much more without them. Like, I’d have to find another way to make a living.

  41. Kirk says:

    Just coax it out in a dark room with a flashlight.

    Works good for gnats.

  42. Education Guy says:

    Interestingly enough both Calvin and Hobbes would likely coach their argumentation in terms of Gods will. Theocons win again!

    In your face secular internet!

  43. N. O'Brain says:

    Thank goodness computers suck.

    Otherwise I’d have to, you know, work for a living.

  44. N. O'Brain says:

    “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.”

  45. happyfeet says:

    The internet is my favorite. But it’s gotten so blurry is my only problem with it.

  46. Dan Collins says:

    Elton John gets weirder looking all the time, haps.

  47. Education Guy says:

    Sorry to hear that you are a victim of global warming climate change weather, happyfeet. Do we need to consider a fund raiser for your cause?

  48. Education Guy says:

    hmmm, my strike tags didn’t work.

  49. happyfeet says:

    Yes, please. I can’t even tell my recycle bins apart no mores.

  50. happyfeet says:

    I think it’s a feedback loop.

  51. Education Guy says:

    OK, I just went and looked at the internet for a bit. Turns out it’s, like 90% porn. Which doesn’t really bode well for my claim of the secular internet receiving facials at the hands of theocons. Or maybe it does, only in a world in which words that used to mean one thing are subverted for use in sexy time.

    In any case, I surrender.

  52. Kirk says:

    Education Guy,

    the 90% porn thing probably has to do with you using the high school computers.

  53. cranky-d says:

    Because it’s really like about 98% porn. The high school computers have filters on them.

  54. SarahW says:

    “Hobbes was right”

    Well, he had “nasty and beetish” down. And short, that goes without saying.

  55. mojo says:

    .. you motherfuckers ready for this?
    Grab your crucifix, tell God Im coming for your juicy lips
    You’se a bitch, don’t let me run up in yo crib with the ruthlessness
    Bruising shit enough to hurt and pain Ill bring
    Think y’all pray for pun, nigga say my name
    I dont play those games, you picked the wrong nigga to fuck with!

  56. scooter (not libby) says:

    Man, I hate the internet.

    Yup, pretty much anything Al Gore had a hand in is not Scottish crap.

  57. scooter (not libby) says:

    Ha! My strikethrough didn’t work either. Imagine, if you will, a line through the words “not Scottish” above.

  58. hmmm, my strike tags didn’t work.

    Sometimes the magic works.. and sometimes it doesn’t. But with strike tags it mostly doesn’t.

  59. happyfeet says:

    I remember hearing about the smoke thing too. It’s gone new age looks like.

    Ear candling is not a new fad. The Chinese candled, so did the Egyptians and segments of the American Indians and the Mayans. So candling has been around in various forms for thousands of years and has been used for different purposes, ranging from initiation rights of the Mayans to the American Indians blowing herbal smoke through straws into the ears for earaches. The anti-Viet Nam war crowd, the longhairs and the Flower Children all candled.

    ear worms?

    As of yet, we have not seen any candle with enough suction to lift earwax out of the ear, or to extract worms or fungi. We have yet to see any ear candle for human ears that will pick up even cigarette ash out of a sealed container (dram sized). So far as we can see, most, if not all, of our competition’s claims along the lines of sucking wax out of the ear are false. Earwax is softened by the heat of the smoke, not sucked out. We welcome any competitor or private individual who can scientifically demonstrate ear candle’s ability to suction wax from the ear.

  60. McGehee says:

    They always work for me. Maybe they just like me better.

    (And if the strikethrough in the above doesn’t work, I’m gonna be so pissed…)

  61. SarahW says:

    Silly hippies.

  62. N. O'Brain says:

    I get ear worms.

    Usually a song by the Carpenters.

    But, unfortunately, not an England, TX, which may be a problem in future. There is a Scotland, TX, but it may not be sufficient :-(

  64. Slartibartfast says:

    I had an earworm this morning, and I shared!

  65. MC says:

    Come on back in bro’ Jeff. It’ll all come back to you real quick…
