I long for the August silly season, so I can rejuvenate myself https://www.thenational.ae/opinion/...ly-season-so-i-can-rejuvenate-myself-1.614425

Yewah, that's the ticket. Rejuvenate yourself from what exactly ......?

I'm pretty sure Silly Season began on January 20 this year.

What would it take for this August to be silly compared to the what's happened so far?

Be imaginative. Be resourceful. You'll need to be. Post a silly season to make the rest of the year seem ho hum normal.

Just how creative is this bunch?

I'm putting up the Dice Clay thread as first shot. https://talkfreethought.org/showthr...tions-director&p=442731&viewfull=1#post442731
 

A box of Ringling Bros Exploding cigars for Mr. Iggens. Oh, wait .....

Not funny. He's already got the boot.
 
I ponder how I can twist Bill Cosby into Trump's administration.

Trump: "He hasn't been found guilty yet."
 
There are no seasons in Trumpsilvania, silliness just is.
 
If it's orange it's got to be really dumb and this is the season for that.

Now the bad guys don't know how to use weapons in Orange County CA. http://ktla.com/2017/08/03/shooting-at-yorba-linda-home-leaves-2-hospitalized-2-sought/

A shooting and a pistol whipping at a house party in a Yorba Linda left two people hospitalized and authorities searching for a gunman and one other person Thursday.Authorities investigate a shooting in Yorba Linda on Aug. 2, 2017.
Officials responded to the 21000 block of Dunrobin Way about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday after someone reported a shooting, Orange County Fire Authority Battalion Chief Chuck Fedak said.
Two men attending a house party at the location got into an altercation, which led to one of the men being shot in the leg, Orange County Sheriff's Department Lt. Lagaret said.
As the man was being transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, a second wounded person was identified.
The second victim, who was also hospitalized, had been struck in the head with a gun, Lagaret said.

One shot in leg and another hit with the gun. Ferchissake. Who taught this guy to use weapons anyhow.
Silly, silly, silly .......

Silly, silly, silly .......
There are shitloads of people to stupid to own such dangerous things that serve no real purpose. The only person I know (a in-law) that used a gun, accidentally shot themselves. It wasn't lack of training so much as lack of common sense. Two years ago, in the town next door, we had a guard practicing his 'quick draw' in his yard and shot it off and killed a kid next door...
 
Silly season has truly begun if we’re considering Jacob Rees-Mogg for prime minister http://www.independent.co.uk/voices...ader-air-pollution-silly-season-a7861591.html

[FONT=&quot]The silly season is upon us, and when Bertie Wooster’s old school chum Moggles (Jacob Rees-Mogg) is being touted for leadership of the Tory party, you can be sure that there is not going to be a vacancy anytime soon. Theresa May is safe in Downing Street for the foreseeable future – i.e. the next fortnight.[/FONT]

Woo Woo matie


It's time for NASCAR!!!
 
Silly Season.

NPR: 25 Million Votes For Clinton ‘Completely Fake’ - She Lost Popular Vote

THE FACTS: The headline falsely describes the gist of a National Public Radio story published four years before the 2016 presidential election. It cited a Pew study, which was released in 2012 and based in part on 2008 results, that found 24 million registrations were invalid or inaccurate. The study found no evidence of fraud and suggested the inaccurate records were the result of antiquated voter registration systems that left dead people on voter rolls or didn’t drop people when they moved.

GET READY! THE BRIGHTEST METEOR SHOWER IN THE RECORDED HUMAN HISTORY IS HAPPENING

THE FACTS: The Perseid meteor shower, peaking the nights of Aug. 11-12, won’t come close to setting any records. The head of NASA’s meteoroid environment office, Bill Cooke, tells the AP that astronomers are projecting a slightly higher than normal shower rate with 150 meteors per hour across the Northern Hemisphere. But the brightness of the moon will wash out the finer Perseids, meaning 30 to 40 meteors an hour will be visible


 
Silly Season. It's spreading. First NASCAR, then US, then GB, now Israel.

THE SILLY SEASON HAS BEGUN http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/The-silly-season-has-begun-460663

he silly season has begun early in Israel. Called “the cucumber season” in Hebrew (apparently derived from the German term “pickled cucumber season”), the silly season reflects the summer vacation months, where there is little serious news and the media is filled with frivolous news items. <snip> None of the positions Karim expressed in his “Ask the Rabbi” Internet responsa, or in his halachic rulings as an IDF rabbi over the question (and I’m embarrassed to write this, as it gives sanction to the legitimacy of holding such a view) of male soldiers listening to a woman singer at an IDF ceremony, are particularly outlandish for an Orthodox rabbi. They actually believe such things.


Update from NYC in NYT

Going Nomad to Avoid Summer Rent Spikes https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/04/realestate/going-nomad-to-avoid-summer-rent-spikes.html?_r=0

She is not in a quarter-life crisis, seeking a safe haven to figure out her next step. It’s much simpler than that. To avoid taking on a new lease this summer, Ms. Rosman is “going nomad” and has moved home with her parents.

80 mile commute is better than living with friends in a studio and it's 95 degrees today.

There's still 23 days to go. Stay tuned. It might even get interesting.
