The Isolated Blurt Thread XXXIV: Like Books & Black Lives, Albums Still Matter

[RobDownSouth]

"They" used to say that about japanese-made products until japanese-made products were eating our lunch because of their superior quality. Then they said that about the Koreans until the Korean started eating our lunch. Measuring things and deciding whether they do or don't meet any particular exacting tolerance specification is not rocket science.

Chinese factories, like the post-war Japanese ones have the advantage of being of recent vintage and equipped with the latest equipment.

Meanwhile, back in the reality-based world.....

I really don't like when people say RIH instead of RIP. Surely I'm not the only one who automatically thinks "Rest in Hell."

 

[spacekowboy]

I have magic hands.

Mind the beard.

I saw my opportunity and I took it! I've been daydreaming of over-the-knee spankings lately.

Sometimes a well placed "naughty" during a spanking can send cascades of shivers down my spine.

Closet bimbo?

It obviously means "Roast In Hell."

 

[Bookishleigh]

I read it as "Rot In Hell."

Well, I think we have a winner now. I kind of like that one.

Rot In Hell it shall be whenever I see RIH.

Roast in Hell makes me think of pig roast.

God I hate that Nespresso ad with Clooney and Devito.

I've seen professional wood chisels with Chinese steel have some horrendous QC issues like real soft spots in them. I don't trust Chinese products for high quality. Middling quality and low prices, yes. And such things do have their place.

..
wooden chisels sounds like a bad idea

 

[spacekowboy]

Well.... someone's a cunt.

I'm guessing dear husband, dear wife, dear son, dear daughter

Weaksauce is still licking his wounds over a thread in which I made him sound like a petulant child who had his toy taken away from him.

Plus, we know he probably just yelled for his mother to bring him another bag of Cheetos because he's too lazy to climb up the basement stairs himself.

 

[spacekowboy]

I still really love Almost Famous.

As promised, Benedict Cumberbund (Cumberbatch) made an appearance.
When you hear the name of Chaucer's granddaughter mentioned, you know where you are.

Darling...Husband, Wife, Son, Daughter.

Its bizarre.

Just re-watched it and it holds up. It's a shame Roadies wasn't renewed by Showtime- hopefully, Netflix grabs it.

It got cancelled? I wanted to give that one a whirl.

Sorry. I feel like a cunt mood right now.

I'm guessing dear husband, dear wife, dear son, dear daughter

Makes sense

Might hold up a tad longer than a concrete chisel when hit with a mallet or small sledgehammer.

I was going to say baby sledgehammer but...
