Monday Funnies: 2023 Clearout

Okay, today is a little different in that I’m featuring stuff that made me giggle at one time or another, and I saved it in a random folder.  Much of it comes from the Knuckledragger (thankee, Kenny), I may have published one or two before, and I’ve also edited some a little.  Whatever:  I’m cleaning out a folder, so here we go:

However, as with all ivory-tower cogitations, Real Life™ has an unfortunate knack for making such conclusions look ridiculous:

Needless to say, the Eco-Loons don’t care, because not being able to visit your family at all on Christmas means that your carbon footprint would be lower still.

Which is why scientists should stick to things like discovering a better adhesive that sticks wood to metal, or improving the taste of Slim Jims (to give but two examples), instead of trying to add to the Smug Index of Virtuousness.

Just a thought.

Then again, we have another solution for this bunch of wokey watermelons, to make their carbon footprint go away completely:

…but no doubt someone is going to have a problem with this.
