Great blog
You never disappoint me.
Lots of fun shots and I can't pick a favorite. I laughed out loud and spewed my coffee on some.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ☺
OMG - the Godzillaz' with the antidepressant people - too funny.
I'm a bad person. I laughed out loud at that poor woman trying to make the sleeper sofa bed.
Rajani: Thanks.
Leanna: I hope not!
Sandee: Glad to provide some laughs.
Lady M: I guess there's an upside to eating people.
Shaw: We're all bad people, in that case.....
I wasn't prepared for the cosmic profundity of the last one!

"Each one of the seven billion of us is a uniquely-wired neurological universe, a secret kaleidoscope of variety."
Superb! And now it's more than eight billion kaleidoscopes.
Cheers,

Thanks! The more the merrier -- more brains to come up with more interesting ideas.
Fun collection! "The Barbie marketing campaign is getting out of hand" HAHAHA! Love that one.
I liked that one too! These days there seems to be pink everywhere you look.
The spare tire snake might be the funniest thing I've seen in a while. That opal is gorgeous.
That spare tire snake is pretty convincing. It would at least give the neighbors a good scare.
