Rick Rivets Puns

Welcome back my fellow masochists to another edition of why the fuck do I do this to myself? What a teaser we have this week!!! MDEGD finds a big one, a dark square on a map of the cluster-fuck, a field trip to the smitty aaaannnddd a gusher with someone saying "we pierced something that hasn't been pierced in a long time." Marty thinks it's the famous offset chamber. I think it could be Zenas snatch.  Since when is this offset chamber famous??? I don't remember any mention of it in previous seasons, but I was kicked in the head a lot as a child so maybe it's just me.

We open up at the war room with most of the fellowship and geophysicist Jeremy who gives a fuck. Old Jeremy has run some old data through some new software designed to show the team a new version of shit that ain't there. Flashback to 2018 when this study didn't help them find anything. Jeremy is fleecing the fellowship and they are eating it up. Now shaft 12 is the new flavor of the month. Somehow there is a tunnel from shaft 12 to what Jeremy calls "the structure". Could it be the structure is the world famous offset chamber?? Marty says it's the right size. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK MARTY?? The right size for some shit you made up this season??? Shaft 12 was drilled by that crusty old fuck Frederick Blair. Why the fuck would there be a tunnel to shaft 12? Why the fuck do I continue to self flagellate myself like this every week???

Head Bobbibg all around and that useless Scott Barlow is saying something that makes my head hurt.

Enough of that shit, let's go to the swamp. Woo-hoo, now I'm happy, Billy Buckets and MDEGD are gonna find some wood!! Hold the fucking phone. It's mother fucking Lesser Frenetti, what the hell is the Don Swayze of the Frenetti Brothers doing there instead of Peter, the Patrick Swayze? They forced this clown on us last season after he somehow got rid of Peter. Then he makes a robot Peter to throw everybody off when he comes back this season. I'm on to you Lesser, I'm gonna find out what you did with Peter. Anyway I digress, Gary doesn't find shit with his metal detector but old eagle eyed Billy spots something from his comfy chair and points it out. Gary picks it up, let's out a wowwee and we cut to commercial.  They found an old banister from Big Ballers front porch. Lesser steals Billy's find and runs off. Can't trust that evil Lesser.

Now we are out at the cluster-fuck and they are drilling for the made up tunnel that goes to the made up offset chamber.

Are we trying to become the next Rick and Morty fanbase here? Bunch of fucking children watching a TV show clearly aimed for adults? Repeating HURR DURR bagels HURR DURR eating panties at every possible opportunity like you're the first fucking pancake? Shit was funny the first three times, no lie, seeing some non-human, non-consequential furry pieces of shit show up in a character poll for one of the greatest character dramas of all time. Are we seriously going to stoop that low into meme territory and desecrate this once-hilarious fanbase? Look at the fucking optics. How are we going to become the largest legacy TV show subreddit if every new fan that comes in here looking to deep dive into character studies over a bottle of port sees that we don't even give a shit about the real, developed, apex predator humans? I don't know if y'all children or working for Greenpeace, but the animals need to fucking go. Sure, they are cute as fuck for the two seconds we saw/heard about them over the 29 riveting episodes, but enough is enough. Every day their dumbass names and worthless looking snouts stays colored on the poll is a blow to the credibility of this community. For those that have already been interested in preserving the sanctity of r/SuccessionTV, I don't know how you guys have been voting, but it's been as choreographed as Mondale getting fucked on roller skates. For all you other pusillanimous pieces of fucking fool’s gold thinking that the furry cunts winning are hehe so funny, I say FUCK OFF, you nosy fucking pedestrians.

I've read 80+ SFF novels in 2021, including re-reads. Picking favorites is a tough task, so I have ordered the top list by dates I read them. I've also listed honorable mentions at the end.

The book title links lead to their page on goodreads, from where I've also copied a portion of the blurbs for this post.

Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater

Blurb:

>It’s difficult to find a husband in Regency England when you’re a young lady with only half a soul. Ever since a faerie cursed her, Theodora Ettings has had no sense of fear, embarrassment, or even happiness—a condition which makes her sadly prone to accidental scandal. Dora’s only goal for the London Season this year is to stay quiet and avoid upsetting her cousin’s chances at a husband… but when the Lord Sorcier of England learns of her condition, she finds herself drawn ever more deeply into the tumultuous concerns of magicians and faeries.

Review:

I have read romantic 💖 fantasy before, but I do not typically look for such books to read. As part of the 2020-21 /r/Fantasy/ bingo challenge, I was looking to juggle my books around to avoid more than one novella in my card. So, when 'Half a Soul' came up as part of HEA club and had awesome reviews already, I picked it up. I ended up using the book for Canadian square though.

This was quite a lovely book. Finished it in less than a day. Characters, setting, plot, pacing - all of them combined well to give a delightful experience. The banter was awesome and felt natural.

The prologue didn't catch my attention much, but by the end of the first two chapters, I was turning pages in a hurry. Lot of secondary characters getting their due and focus was another aspect that I loved about this book. In hindsight, this was evident from the first chapter itself, and this continued to be such a refreshing feature that it left a big impression on me.

The Siege of Skyhold by John Bierce

Note: This is the 5th book in the Mage Errant series

Blurb:

>The Havath Dominion is marching to war. Humiliated in the ruins of Imperial Ithos, the Exile Splinter stolen from their grasp by the ancient sphinx Kanderon Crux, Havath's Duarchs have assembled an army that dwarfs the entire population of Skyhold. Led by their

I’m would say I’ve done a lot of exploring in the realm of books this past year. With my teachers being fat cows who don’t make me do any real work and not being able to socialize much, I’ve gone back to my old childhood pastime: reading. For me, reading is being able to immerse myself in a world that isn’t my own, an escape that allows me to breathe the fresh air I miss, a getaway to laugh with friends I never had, an outlet for all my emotions, and a flash of hope in this pit of darkness I call life. But I digress. I like the books I read because they help me escape. I like the books I read to allow my imagination to expand and take me places I can’t take myself. That being said, here’s some of the best books, and series, I read this past year (with little side notes from me about why I liked them). Please recommend anything you think I would enjoy.

Harry Potter by JK Rowling (This series needs no explanation.) WS

Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan (Greek Mythology is captivating… Need I say more?) WS

They Both Die At The End by Adam Silvera (I think I might’ve cried at the end… and I almost never cry.)

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Mass (Couldn’t put it down. I went three nights without sleep just to read Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn. Masterfully written series.) WS

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller (OH. MY. GOD. Has writing ever been more beautiful?)

The Summoner Series by Taran Matharu (Pokemon meets Harry Potter. I love it. Give me more.) WS

The Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo (I read the book in one sitting… Then I read it again. Even without the fantastic heist, the characters alone make the book worth reading.) WS

One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus (I’ve never been more engrossed by a single murder. I felt so included yet so far in the unknown that I could hardly put down the book.)

Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard (I was recommended it and I loved the series because of the fast pace and interesting characters.) WS

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie (HOLY MOTHER OF PRINT! In such a confined setting, to so masterfully execute a plot so riveting and unpredictable… I would never have imagined it like this. My respect to Ms. Christie.)

Note: WS after parentheses means I read the whole series.

Hey all,

This is a review on the Daft CCP Tornado Boots and the Daft Rick Owens Pentagram Glitter Boots.

As the title states, I am a cobbler and run a business along with my family, we specialize in boot repair and custom boot making. I’d rather not disclose any info on what our business is called for privacy reasons so you’ll just have to take my word. Here’s a pair of custom boots that were made for a customer.

I do not care much for accuracy when it comes to boots therefore I won’t speak on it much. Especially since no one will tell you to take off your smelly boots so that they can LC them. Daft is known for his highly accurate reps anyway.

Here is proof I purchased them and did not receive them for free in case oreps accuse me of being a shill ;)

Now to the review. This is a long read btw.

CCP Tornado Boots

BUILD QUALITY

The build quality on the CCP boots is excellent. I would almost consider the style as a western/cowboy boot if it wasn’t for the brand or zipper design. The toe shape is a classic and the boots are made of cordovan leather ,aka horse butt, as far as I’m aware. Unfortunately I haven’t dealt with many pairs of cordovan shoes so I can’t verify if it is shell or normal horse leather but the leather definitely is nice and has a beautiful texture.

From what I know, Daft used two way YKK Excella zippers that were given an aged look. They zip up nicely and I have not run into issues others have. I also make sure to not use too much force when zipping them up but it is possible I might run into trouble with them in the future due to the design of the curved zippers.

The welting and soles show great craftsmanship. The welt goes all around and the stitching is very uniform with no flaws on my pair. The stitching under is hidden well giving the sole a clean appearance. The soles/heel base edges were purposely given an unfinished look. I would recommend leaving the edges the way they are when asking for sole protectors as to not ruin the appearance of the boot.

FIT

The boot fits TTS imo. I followed the size chart and they fit just like any boot I own. I would only recommend to size up if you have wide feet and do not want to deal with breaking them in. They fit me nice and s

Do your worst!

Seeing as he’s from Las Vegas, the home of twenty-four-hour gambling, retina-freezing neon, and spontaneous wedding ceremonies, The Killers’ Ronnie Vannucci has a penchant for doing things—to quote a famous Vegas crooner—his way. A natural drummer with a massive beat and a creative, chameleon-like tendency to create a new flow as the song dictates, Vannucci pulls out all the quirky stops for The Killers’ third release, Day And Age.

With sales of twelve million and climbing for their earlier albums, Hot Fuss and Sam’s Town, The Killers employed producer Stuart Price (Madonna, Missy Elliott, Gwen Stefani, Seal) to twist their already unpredictable pop style for Day And Age. Where previous Killers albums offered equal parts gritty urban beats, heraldic melodies, and chest-thumping Bruce Springsteen–style theatrics, Day And Age streamlines the band’s approach into something more groove-heavy and dance-oriented. But far from a click-track slave, Vannucci saw The Killers’ change in direction as a chance to experiment, and to expand his skill set as well as his cymbal set.

Vannucci plays 18" and 22" hi-hats on much of Day And Age. Even so, if he wasn’t happy with a particular hi-hat sound, he’d sing “chick chick chick” into a mic and add it to the mix. If he wanted a different drumset sound, he used a small “side kit” for a textural change of pace. And he was only getting started. For one song, Vannucci tracked nine snare drums for a massive rock ’n’ roll march. For another, he combined two drumset tracks into one, running snares in the middle of the mix, toms hard left and right, and the bass drum rumbling like a subsonic depth charge. Vannucci even sent all of his beautiful acoustic drum sounds through ancient Simmons SDS pads, and then tweaked the results beyond recognition for The Killers’ first single, “Human.”

Vannucci’s been a drummer since he was seven, playing in various bands around Las Vegas until, in his twenties, he landed a job working as a wedding photographer at the Chapel Of The Little Flowers. The job allowed him to pay the rent by day and gig by night. Shooting all those starry-eyed honeymooners drove him mad, though, and after seeing a Tom Waits gig in 2000, the drummer enrolled at the University Of Las Vegas as a double music major. Simultaneously, he and the rest of The Killers (Brandon Flowers, David Keuning, and Mark Stoermer) honed their songs and created a fresh pop sound that would result in their topping critics’ polls throughou

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

• "I grew up watching Star Trek, I quote episodes. I bought the books, bought the toy ships, bought commissioned art work. I can’t watch the recent shows, it is the opposite of what I loved. Cynicism is something we rise above; the people working on Star Trek once believed that."

• "This still exist, seriously. Who is watching this poor show with poor stories and actors who are not for sci-fi. This is not sc-fi, it is soap opera. Some new producer took over sci-fi and has no clue how to do things like Rick did"

• "After finally facing consequences and being demoted after running off randomly all the time it was above O.K. Then it was like the writers had to have her as Captain by the end of the season no matter what, so all of a sudden she went from demoted to captain. Was very jarring and took me out of the series, much like the TARDIS turbo lifts."

• "Doesn’t look very good. The trailer more gives the impression that Burnham is rash and not yet ready for command. But I guess we’ll wait and see. Trailers can be very misleading. But if discovery’s track record is anything to go by, the season will be fast paced, action based and filled with a lot of burnham speeches. Hopefully it does well but discovery does seem to keep falling short. At least for me."

• "Let me guess, the anomaly ends up being a result of something the Discovery crew themselves did at some point in the past or future? I do really like the show, but these season long mysteries and galaxy destroying threats are starting to get a bit old. I'd love to see them just out exploring and having fun adventures someday."

• "It's Star Trek. It's supposed to be coral, social and ethical like Roddenberry's utopia meant it to be. No central seat. No gritty future. It was a narration of hope about a mankind capable of growing to a higher level of conscience, culture and tolerance... But our society seems no more capable to tell such stories. We're living sad times."

• "She didn't earn that chair at all it was handed to her by Admiral Vance after she started a war with the Klingon Empire, she whispers when she speaks, and she always has to be the one to save the galaxy, and she's the only one to have character development when everyone else is still the same."

• "Let's Hope they can discover some better writing and acting!"

• "Thanks for the warning. Will make sure to miss it."
