I must be the dummy because I don't get it.


No doubt..

Do you think that wearing a hat contributes to baldness?
IDK? I heard it a long time ago that wearing a hat does something, decreases the bodies natural tendency to create oil or something?
I've noticed when I live in cold country even though I always have pants on the hair on my legs gets darker and thicker. When I am in warmer climes and wear shorts my leg hair gets thinner and lighter colored?
I had read animals can tell when it's going to be a harsh winter they put on more hair, bugs seem to predict a harsh winter also?
I never wore a hat when I was young but started wearing one in the 70's, by the late eighty's I've got a landing spot on the back of my head that seems to attract bee's. Then the rest of my head hair seemed to slip off my head. Wondered if anyone else had noticed when they went to wearing hat, possibly their head quit making protective oils??

My theory is that people that wear hats are generally less intelligent and less educated.
Then why do graduates wear mortar boards to their ceremony's?

My guess is that is part of the tradition and ceremony because they wear them and at the end they take them off and throw them. I believe it expresses the transformation from dummy to not dummy when they take them off and throw them.

Of course, I don't actually believe that a degree means someone is intelligent.

I would like to do a commencement speech.

And when you throw your cap today... you will now be “not dummy”. Congratulations!

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Funny, but untrue...there are a lot of dummies with degrees. They are just well-educated dummies.

Fascinating case Supreme Court is hearing Wednesday
Jack Daniel's vs a company that's selling a parody for dogs that looks like a Jack Daniel's bottle
The case revolves around a Ginger Rodgers lawsuit and the creative license to parody a trademark

"The toy mimics Lynchburg, Tennessee-based Jack Daniel's famous whiskey bottles with humorous dog-themed alterations - replacing "Old No. 7" with "the Old No. 2, on your Tennessee Carpet" and alcohol descriptions with "43% Poo By Vol." and "100% Smelly."

Biden administration supports Jack Daniel's. I support the freedom to parody Jack Daniels
