Out of the Blue

Hmm, I wonder how common are nightmares in general? Frankly, I can't remember the last time I had one. This despite having dreams I could recall on a regular basis...

I had a dream last night that I was on a flight that had some kind of malfunction so the pilot had to come down to a few thousand feet. The plane was flying below the tops of some nearby mountains, and he kept getting lower and lower. Eventually he clipped a tree, and was just "whoops!" about it. Freaked me out.

I used to fly all the time, and never have any anxiety about flying, so this must be representative of something else.

I call dreams like that a nightmare. Much like the current administration.
donny takes credit for airline safety even though he has had absolutely nothing to do with it, type of nightmare.

*chuckle* I hadn't heard that previously -- yes, that seems apt. Out of curiosity was he speaking about a specific film, or just in general on both of the big films made about Jobs?
If you search the quote I don't think he said that.

I was paraphrasing, sorry. It's from an interview he did.

The thing which makes this satirical article so damn funny (or not so damn funny) is if Paul Ryan actually said those things, many people including myself would not be surprised in the least.

Yeah, he's a smarmy fucking asshole for sure. He's right up there as "most punchable" with Shkreli and Pai.

Also, he knows he's going to get his ass kicked by "Iron Mustache" Randy Bryce.

Congrats Mr. Tact, there was just no catching you. In the end after a couple bad weeks I was forced to go into full upset mode and it worked out about as well as I thought it would.

And as far as my win in the point spread pool goes, it was a good thing I had built a big lead because my clicker finger pulled a hammy about three weeks ago and I had to limp in for the finish.

I squeezed many a tit which turned out to belong to witches, but none of them were cold.
