Thanks Tennesseer . Meme makes sense now
I didn't even recognize him and I've seen most of his movies several times. Either I need new glasses, or Hopkins has aged significantly

First time in a VERY long time I need an explanation. Tried and tried, but I just don't get this one Don’t feel bad. I finally decided it was Lecter but not a real good likeness of Hopkins so it took me a while before I gave in.

I think we've all run into the prove you are human thing at least once online!! I hate that thing. I’ve actually failed a few times so I may be a machine. Not a smart one, more like a talking can opener or something. I always seem to get tiny blurry pictures. They want you to find the ones with traffic lights and I think there’s one showing the backside of a traffic light but at such a distance it might also be a sailboat.

Thank you for this. My dad used to say it during my childhood. I think he got it from the Army...?

This is odd. Do you know why there is a slice of pie under the couch with what looks like a bird hanging upside down? The lit stick of dynamite under the chair is an interesting touch too. Ah, I found that the pie of opportunity among others are intentional symbols. Nevermind.

We honestly haven't decided if we'll be traveling this year. Between the price of gas, and Covid, who knows?

I was too you to realize (2 years old?) that one does not stick the tip of a common pin into an electric wall outlet. Shocking experience. Shocking I say.

Budding Electrical Engineer here learned that 3 turns of wire around a screwdriver shaft and plugging it into an ac socket doesn't make an electromagnet. It makes a black mark on the wall and a 6 yo on the floor across the room.

I was too you to realize (2 years old?) that one does not stick the tip of a common pin into an electric wall outlet. Shocking experience. Shocking I say. When DD1 was about 4 or 5 yrs old, after I put her to bed one evening, she came back out crying and her thumb was black and burned. Upon checking, the wall near the electrical outlet near her bed, was also black, a bit. She is now in her 40s, and to this day, she swears she didn't put anything in the outlet, or touch it. And to this day, I still don't believe her. SOMETHING happened that she didn't tell me about.

He had the ability to climb to places no 2yr. Old should be able to reach! He just had a problem with figuring out how to get down. Once I found him up on kitchen counter. No sign of chair, step ladder, or any object in sight he could have used to get there. The only thing out of place was the open cabinet door of bottom cabinet. I just shook my head and got him down. I lived in fear of finding him on the roof at age 3.
