 10.22.25 - Animal rights activists were livid and called him a freak and a chump and dangerous, but there’s no denying that his last stunt - attempting to joust against an octopus - was a memorable one.

(I do love throwing animals into these. Anyway, a jousting octopus sounds like a pretty cool thing to see. You know, like via a cartoon or cgi or something. Not in real life.)

10.23.25 - The cashier at Walmart didn’t bat an eye when I bought a quilt, a chain, a drill and a bible.

(This one feels somewhat like cheating, since I was essentially just listing the words, but, hey, it still works.)

10.24.25 - Tuber themed decor for your home is inexpensive, super nutritious, and will amaze any potential buyer.

(I suspect eventually we'll all be living inside potatoes.)

10.25.25 - I’d gauge that cough drop to be at least two thousand kilometers wide.

(That is one massive cough drop.)

10.26.25 - The chart indicated the bluff should wield tons of plump blueberries, but six hours of searching resulted in one lousy blueberry picked with it making a sad plunk in my bucket.

(Blueberries for Sal getting a grimdark reboot was not on my bingo list, but, here we are.)

10.27.25 - On the tenth anniversary of taking over humanity, as a gift to the few survivors, the cyborgs released a retro killing machine made of metal, and that was a sweet thought, however, the fetid odor it produced somewhat cancelled out any appreciation we may have felt.

(It's the thought that counts, but it's the smell that REALLY counts.)

10.28.25 - The precinct experienced the full wrath of the chief when someone put up holly, tinsel, and Christmas lights in October. 

(additional sentence - Stephen King invoked the wrath of his fans when he made Holly Gibney the chief protagonist repeatedly.)

(Yes, super mad police chiefs are tired and done to death at this point, but, I love the idea of one getting pissed at someone putting up decorations too soon. And, yes, October is WAY too soon, you greedy bastards. Also, Holly is fine, but, I just don't get King's obsession with her. [shrug])

Ehh. This week's batch ain't the best, but it's been a rough week.

10.15.25 - The apron was so plump, it was practically a spoof.

10.16.25 - My doctor’s advice was to avoid fatty pasta, but she said it in a catty way, and her clothes looked rather ratty, so I ate my ravioli happily.

10.17.25 - The group of vegan zombies started to growl that the soy brains were gross.

(Feel like there's a "plants vs. zombies" joke to be made here, but, eh.)

10.18.25 - The critic had labeled his haven of games as “fakey”, so the manager paced as he waited to see if his opinion held water.

10.19.25 - The girly drinks served at the bottom of the slide did belie that the park was perhaps not the ideal spot to drop off your kids.

(Unless you want them to be drunk.)

10.20.25 - If you claim to have no limit on how low you can go when playing limbo, you better have the skills to back it up.
