Zar-carh-Im…….

Figured I’d give the anti-gun-mites something to cheer about. If there ever was an assault weapon for war it’s the AA12. :shocked:

I prefer Black Russians, they are more rare… :duck:

Try Bison Grass Vodka sometime. Smooth.....Polish. Aka, Żubrówka.

Shotguns are not viable weapons for the battlefield.

I understand there is a global agreement not to assassinate world leaders. That being the case, if Putin breaks the code by taking out Zelensky, all bets should be off. In that case it would be great to see Putin banned from taking another breath of air.

Exactly...hot russian babes...until they turn 40 and become babushkas....dressed like our moms

Did you watch the AA12 video?? Evidently NOT.

I know what you mean, but. . .
 

Speaking for myself. . .

A sense of humor is a study in itself. I think it is on some kind of spectrum. There is definitely a range.

Those of us who have a sense of humor know that it is very much a part of who we are as individuals.

I have known people who take everything literally because they just can’t see it any other way — no sense of humor, at all, I guess. The rest of us run the gamut from the quick and dry to slapstick and beyond, with everything in between.

And, of course, humor can be a valuable coping mechanism.

I will say though that I draw the line where others might have a need to cross it. . .

I have never laughed at a Helen Keller joke.
,
I have never mocked a disabled person.

I think Ricky Gervais goes too far in his stand-up routine. I watched his stand-up one time. Never again. (cringe, shudder)

And, now, I cannot find any laughter anywhere in what we are seeing happening in Ukraine.

I have not even watched Colbert for the past few nights. I have always loved it when he skewers those who need a good skewering. But man’s inhumanity to man, orchestrated by a megalomaniac, is in a different category. (I don’t know how or if Colbert is satirizing this one. I am choosing not to find out.)

“A woman’s got to know her limitations.”

And I just can’t laugh about any part of this one.

PS: Today, I did look up my favorite vodka Grey Goose, just to make sure — made in France.
PPS: And, btw, please do not feel the need to lecture me about what I can and cannot control. I am not naive. I limit my news time and then go on with normal things — but damn, this is HUGE, the biggest thing I have seen in my entire boomer life — so far. . .

Maybe not, but we used them in Vietnam. There are some very decent models that make very good "assault" weapons, especially for urban warfare.

How about blonde jokes? :MOJE_whot:

I have viewed on news shows people pouring Russia Vodka on the ground in protest. It’s a statement but the damage was done on purchase. Just drink it and buy no more.

Dear Boomer,
I agree that there is a spectrum of humor. This is not meant as a lecture, just conversation. I am one of those that spot a double-entendre or innuendo. Sometimes even when it isn't there. I, like you, don't mock the unfortunate, but I can see the humor in some of the situations they may encounter. Even when I am the unfortunate one, there is a humorous perspective. Example: I had cancer in my neck. Treatment was long and terrible. When I could no longer eat or drink, I had to take nourishment through a tube in my belly. When my radiation nurse saw it for the first time, she asked how I felt. I smiled and told her I was a member of the Borg collective. She laughed hysterically, not at me, but with me at my bizarre appearance.
The situation in both Russia and Ukraine is horrible. But I, for one, have no control over these events. But I, and apparently others, can find humor in the sometimes silly protests or bans that take place. Laughter is often a coping mechanism that eases the pain of horrible reality. But it doesn't change that reality.

Russia is sending in nesting tanks. They are easier to ship as 1 tank instead of 6
