Thorsday Open Thread

Good Morning, It’s Thorsday!

Guess who just figured out how to embed gifs and tweets up here? Huge shoutout to my friend and fellow blogger, our own Skelly10 for giving me hints showing me how to do it since she had to basically walking me through it via Twitter -okay boomer. How’s everyone’s week going? I’m off service for the next seven days so I finally have time to plug back into my family and get stuff down around the house; and I’m already planning to put something on the smoker this weekend. Mrs_rob continues with her Johnny Cash media requests for the week, I blame all of you for this. Meanwhile we’ll carry on with our news and links full of crockpot recipes, nap strategies and beer recommendations; drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and it’s Thorsday - I was informed this is cultural appropriation, but I’m not smart and don’t know what that means.

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waiter, and Welcome Aboard!
