Humor
This Python Certainly Ain’t Code
But It Ain’t A Snake Either
Another Sherry McGuinn prompt d*mmit!
I’m still reeling from the last prompt hole from Sherry I dug myself into and now she’s thrown down another gauntlet that I just have to pick up. It’s almost like in her own coquettish, “who me?” manner she’s just double dawg dared me to come up with something.
This time it’s supposed to be snot running down your nose funny. And we all know I can’t do funny right?
So if this attempt to bring about — a chortle, a titter, a guffaw, or even a polite but disingenuous grin — fails I need you all to focus on the one who solicited this pitiable attempt at humor. Not me.
Today I bring you manly funny, a man being a man, the best kind of man, a brutish kind of lumberjack man. Now we’re talking, right?
But of course, wearing women’s panties and hanging out at bars may not be manly enough or even womanly enough for some. Perhaps there are those who prefer the more intellectual stimulation of a good book and glass of Bordeaux. Maybe there are those among us who prefer a quiet moment of reflective peace at home listening to our parrot's talk. What’s that you say? You don’t have one? Well, I know a place where you can buy one cheap.
But then for those of us who have the same luck with birds as we do plants and just can’t seem to keep them alive, perhaps if COVID ever goes away we can go out for a nice dinner. I’m thinking perhaps maybe a bed and breakfast where we can forget about war and pestilence for a bit over a fine meal.
So if you really don’t feel like lumberjacking in women’s panties or hanging out at bars. If the parrot you bought only moments ago suddenly keels over and stiffens into a plank. If the dinner turned into a disaster because the waiter goosestepped all over your pate.
Perhaps you should just run away.
As I said, this python ain’t code, but it ain’t a snake either. What it is, is tight-lipped British humor at it’s best.
Keep running mates.
