Oh gawd… somebody left Kim du Toit’s cell open again. It’s comical how some men put on pretentious airs of intellect and sophistication and think they’re better than everyone else because…they put on a suit! HAR HAR HAR!
😂👍
Fill your boots, fops! The one at the end is my own helpful fashion tip!
Hmmmm. Like other anthropologists and scientists I used to think that Clown World was recently invented by jews, sexual perverts and degenerate women. These artifacts may indicate that Clown World is much actually much older than anyone suspects. A radical new theory presents itself: did modern Clown World rise out of Africa? The antics and artifacts of certain proto-humans -
homo stubfarticus - would certainly seem to suggest it.
Looks like we all know where this year’s Nobel is going! In your
face, Dr. Quartermain!!!✊ Booyahhh!!!
In my tie wearing days I would always go for the Full Windsor but with my thick neck, the dangly part would end up the size of a mattress label.
ReplyDelete"homo stubfarticus"" that has the potential for a lot of mileage. About like dickus headus.
ReplyDeleteIf you are to study with the great intellects that gather here at the Thunderbox - you will have to know the terms Tex. It is in places like this that your intellectual credibility can rest assured...
DeleteI used the full Windsor knot, which I could tie without the aid of a mirror.
ReplyDeleteDu Toit was born about 150 years too late. Himself would make excellent nobility, complete with infallible opinions on everything in five different languages. Eventually he'd fall into an alcohol fueled argument with the wrong rakehell and get killed in a duel.
Damn right. I see him getting run through with an epee weilded by a fwenchman in ruffles and ribbons on his shoes, HAR HAR HAR!!! HAR HAR HAR!!!
DeleteGood gawd - if I am to be kilt backing up my ropey mouth... please lord - don't let me fall to a fwenchman with an epee. Even a red nigger with a hawk or a spontoon would be a better executioner than that... ;)
Ties are for slaves.
ReplyDeleteChutes Magoo
What are these "Knots" you speak of? I am not a salaried slave. I am a white man, working class.
ReplyDeleteI won't wear a tie. Have a weird gag reflex thing and ties, too tight Tee shirts, top buttons on collar etc. are all out of the question. Been like that all my life.
ReplyDeleteThe Thunderbox is a safe place, KK - and I won't wear one either.
DeleteHaving worn Air Force blue for six years, I can tie a Windsor knot in the dark with no mirror.
ReplyDeleteAnd I seem to recall grade school lore had it that a proper noose has thirteen loops.
Okay - well that's different. Those guys have to conform to military regs traditions - and they get to take that shite off when they mean business. I am here to say there is nothing in the WORLD better than BDU pocket pants and shirts. Fella can get serious about manly pleasures and conveniences like EDC with clothes like that...
DeleteOh I agree completely. Last time I wore a tie was a funeral about five years ago (marryin' & buryin' clothes). If I want to get gussied up in Sunday-go-to-meetin' clothes, I have a bolo tie with a gorgeous piece of turquoise in the clasp. Minister's wife loves it 'cause it's what her dad wore.
DeleteMy vote is for #15. The Filthian knot.
ReplyDeleteI concur with Greg above. The Hang-man's Knot has 13 loops around the rope. I have spoken to a then-retired Hangman who confirmed that the actual knot was legally mandated.
ReplyDeleteJesus was a Jew, and yes, most of them turned their back on him like most secular folks do but not all Jew's did, hence the Gospels. You continually show your hatred for Jews that make up 15 million, 0.2% of the 8 billion worldwide population.
ReplyDeleteGood luck when you come face to face with our Creator.
I'm out after visiting your blog for years.
Good luck!

Let us understand each other, James?
DeleteMy version of the Bible has it that God periodically sent other tribes against the the jews when they sinned and had to be punished. As a group or demographic, I am seeing behaviour on their part that is absolutely sinful and needs to be called out and examined - just as it should for everyone else. I don’t want to kill jews, or enslave them or make them into soap or lampshades. I want those behaviour patterns to stop. If your Bible holds - your Maker wants to see the stuff they’re doing stop too.
I’m sorry to see you go. Thank you for your good wishes for my Judgement - may yours be light and merciful as well.
I remember back in the 70's, a few years after Watergate, I saw Richard Nixon on the David Frost talk show. It was the first time he had been interviewed since his resignation. The subject of China came up. Nixon was asked what his overall thoughts on Chinese society were. I'll never forget his answer:
ReplyDelete"Well, any society that can eliminate the necktie can't be all bad."
Since I retired 3 1/2 years ago, I only wear ties at formal occasions like weddings and funerals that I can't avoid. Otherwise, screw neckties and suits. I hate them and if I absolutely must wear one, I can't wait to get the stupid thing off when I get home. There are a lot of invitations I would turn down if I had to wear a suit.
One last thing. I have been telling people for years that if I ever get to be the dictator of planet Earth, The very first thing I will outlaw by decree is the stupid necktie.
I can tie a Windsor without a mirror, and that's one knot too many. It's likely been about 10 years since I have worn a tie.
