That Post Apocalyptic Feeling

How many of you feel like you're living in a post apocalyptic movie, like I do?

Apart from the zombies, the total shutdown of electricity, no clean water, fighting for the last crumbs of food, and absolute anarchy, it's exactly the same as one of those movies!

The streets are eerily empty of pedestrians and cars, it is eerily quiet, our neighbors are eerily shut in, and opening their blinds, just a crack, to eerily peer out at us as we walk our eerie little dogs. 

It's just EERIE!

Not that I don't completely understand the reasons for quarantining and social distancing, but I feel like I'm in a bad, post apocalyptic flick from circa 1996.

Just the fact that we are keeping our distance from friends and relatives reminds me of that one creepy movie when everybody was getting rabies, and the non-rabied folks had to avoid the rabied folks, not to get infected.

I think it was this movie from 1970...about the time I saw it.

I recommend you NOT watch the trailer, above! Really GROSS!

So, if YOU feel like you're in a post apocalyptic movie, don't share it with anyone! They may think you're crazy and not taking the COVID-19 epidemic seriously. 

Everyone already KNOWS I'm nuts, so my credibility is shot from the get go!!

Stay safe, distant, cover your coughs and sneezers, and don't lose your ability to laugh!

Out Of This World Wednesday...

The Force Revealed!

Glamor shot of Krug the Kruddy

Krug the Kruddy (AKA Destroyer Of Galaxies) is fuming over the fact that our Glirkazoid pals, Gary and Rosie, are mocking him with a song about kicking his butt, as seen on his highly technical "viewmaster apparatus."

A reasonable facsimile of Krug's high tech "viewmaster apparatus" thingy.

And what REALLY frosts his punkin' is the fact that they sang it to the tune of the Flintstone's theme song! The Hitlerstalinmussolinians (the alien terrorist group that Krug created) HATE the Flintstone's theme song, with a deep hatred that abides within their dark, filthy souls! 

Why? I don't know! I think it has to do with the frenetic beat.

Therefore, Krug is sending one of the most powerful "forces" in the realms of evil, to stop the Silver Sausage spazeship from reaching him in his secret lair!!

Krug's super secret, secret lair!

The spazeship devouring Ramadragon!

Rosie - "Gary? Do you think that horrible old Krug REALLY has a spazeship devouring Ramadragon?" 

Gary - "Highly unlikely, my dear Rosie! Number one, how could a creature bigger than the Emperor's State Building fly through zillions of light years of unoxygenated spaze and survive?"

"Number two, no one has ever ACTUALLY seen this so-called Ramadragon! Not even any selfies have surfaced!"

"Three, how could ANY flesh and blood Ramadragon digest a metal spazeship, like the Silver Sausage? It would be out of the question, grasshopper!"

The totally metal Silver Sausage spazeship.

Rosie - "Unless...this Ramadragon is one of the rare "air makers" that have the ability to create oxygen from nanu spaze particles, and has eaten every life form that has attempted to take it's picture and hates selfies, and has the sulfuric tummy acid of a Metalottomus that thrives on metal for it's sustenance!"

Gary - "Shut up, Rosie!"

Far, far away, the voracious Ramadragon emerges from Krug's lair. and begins his long, long trip across the universe, whilst composing this song in his big blue head...

Sung roughly to the tune of "I'ts A Great Big Brownie Smile" song...

Ramadragon - 
 ♪I'm flying 'cross the universe,
♪It's such a long, long trip,
To eat the Silver Sausage,
It's a legendary ship.♪♪

♪♪This is nothing new to me,
'Cause I've eaten quite a few,
And every time I ate a ship,
I also ate the crew!♪

♪Oh, rama-lama, Ramadragon,
Folks fear me far and wide,
Oh, rama-lama, Ramadragon,
There's no place they can hide!♪♪

This is getting SERIOUS, my beloved readers!

Our unsuspecting heroes are not expecting the gynormous Ramadragon to unexpectedly appear and make a snack of their comparatively small spazeship!

Let's compare the Silver Sausage spazeship to a normal sized spazeship in the Galactic Spaze Force, shall we?

Silver Sausage

Normal sized spazeship

A snack INDEED!

Please mark next Wednesday on your schedule to satisfy your insatiable appetite for OUT OF THIS WORLD WEDNESDAY!! 

Ancient Astronaut Theorists Say Yes!

I Say No!!

I enjoy watching the Ancient Aliens TV series. Not because I believe any of it, but I love the dramatic way they present the bizarre information.

For instance..."Is this rock actually a piece of a civilization that blew up on Mars, and thrown  into earth's atmosphere, where it landed here in the Mojave desert a billion years ago?" (Now here is their favorite line) "Ancient Astronaut theorists say YES!"

Or is it Ancient Alien theorists? No matter. What are the prerequisites for being an Ancient Astronaut/Alien Theorist? Couldn't ANYBODY be one? 

It's like saying, "my Uncle Hibby says yes to the Roswell incident!" Who's Uncle Hibby? Why is HE qualified to lecture us on UFO stuff? 

Well, he's not! He's no more qualified than the mysterious Ancient Astronaut theorists they quote on TV! You know, the ones who say YES!

The other night the Ancient Astronaut/Alien theorists said yes to the idea that (get this) octopuses are actually alien creatures from another world, because they are not connected to any evolutionary chain. 

They said yes to the theory that the octopuses flew here on a meteor that landed in an ocean, and now live among the lower fishes. They REALLY said this!

Okay! Maybe the fact that octopi do not connect to the evolutionary chain is because God created them! 

According to Merriam-Webster, both octopuses and octopi are acceptable plurals

Ancient Astronaut theorists also say yes to the theory that the pyramids, Stonehenge, Machu Picchu, and just about all of the cool constructions of the ancient past were beaming out signals to extraterrestrials without electricity or nothin'! 

In conclusion, I'm not completely dismissing the far fetched theories of Ancient Alien/Astronaut theorists, because ANYTHANG is possible!

However, just because an uncertified AAT says YES to weird stuff, doesn't make it true!

Happiness Begins From Thyself

I made the title of this blog post, "Happiness Begins From THYSELF," to make it sound biblical. It's not. 

However, we can always find happiness in things that others may find boring, if we use our God given imaginations.

Remember when you were a wee child, and you had to go to Aunt Henrietta's house for a visit, where there were no toys, or T.V., or nothin'! 

Well, I do! 

Anyway, I used my God given imagination to create things to do, and built imaginary forts from Aunt Henrietta's couch cushions, used her clothespins to be soldiers and Indians native Americans, 

her house plants became a forest...and, you get the point.

So, as we hunker down in our homes, we can create our own happiness by using our WHAT? Right! Our God given imaginations!! 

As you gaze around your home, what do you see that would be a fun prop to use in making a video for your friends, or even bringing some levity to your family members, or your dog!

Look! A lampshade! Placing the lampshade over your head and dancing around like a clown would be the obvious way to exude happiness from thyself, but why not turn it upside down, and place it over your head like a "cone of shame," and bark like a dog? What a creative way to bring happiness to others! Especially your dog, if it doesn't freak him/her out!

Gather up all the empty toilet paper rolls (I'm sure you have a bunch) and decorate them with stickers, glitter, or whatever you have available, and make toot ta toots! 

Whenever any family member complains about being quarantined, every other member may give her/him a big TOOT TA TOOT through the TP roll!

Use some makeup to convert yourselves into Zombies! Shred your clothes a bit, have fake blood (ketchup..if you have any left) running down your chins, and if any concerned neighbor comes to your door, scare them away by moaning "BRAINS...BRAINS!!!"

Fun for the whole family!! 

What imaginative suggestions do you have to create a happy atmosphere in the dungeon-like existence we are experiencing on Mar. 30, 2020?

Okay. A bit of exaggeration here.

When I check my blog analytics, I see that many of my regular readers have flown the coop! 

I attribute this to...

1. Folks are too worried about COVID-19 to read my blog. Hey! What's more important!! Don't answer that.

2. I've suddenly become more boring, without realizing it. Boring? ME boring? I could see it, if I kept on going on and on about a lot of boring stuff, like taking my dog, Chevy, for a walk, or fake U.F.O. stories, or my love of brussel sprouts, or my frequent use of the name, Tom... but boring is the last thing I'm guilty of, when it comes to writing my blog every day, in the year of our Lord, 2020, usually in the morning, between 5 & 11 am.

3. I make fun of serious issues, in a "gallows humor" style, which makes a lot of you uncomfortable and ticked off, which I TOTALLY understand, but it's my way of coping with frightening stuff.

gal·lows hu·mor

/ˈɡalōz ˈ(h)yo͞omər/

noun

1. grim and ironic humor in a desperate or hopeless situation.

Good example of gallows humor.

4. Bloggadocious 222 is becoming too intellectual for the the common man/woman, and your brains can't handle the super-stimulating, mind blowing info spewing from this fountain of wisdom! Ha ha! I had to laugh at that one myself!! 

Anyway, just tell me why you haven't been reading my blog, lately...but...if you're not reading my blog anymore, you won't see this desperado message!

Oh, well!
