It's one of the problems I have with people making up their homemade abbreviations.
In the first group - i d l f - he used the word DON'T. In the second group - s i d n c - logic would have him again saying DON'T, but he didn't. He used DO NOT.
Consistency helps a lot when you're trying to interpret something.

That fits. I considered them insignificant.

Millions of Mexicans serve menudo at holiday gatherings and one of its main ingredients is tripe.
Really? I thought the purpose of menudo was a hangover cure.

I have wondered, for many many years, if Rocky and Bullwinkle have the same middle name.
Their names are Bullwinkle J Moose and Rocket J Squirrel.
Since they both have the same middle initial I have wondered, but no one seems to know, whether they have the same middle name.
There is a webcomic called The Whiteboard. It's an anthropomorphic comic. We have Doc, who is a polar bear and his friend Roger who is a raccoon. Doc owns a paintball store, and Roger is his business partner. He has several employees. Sandy is a fox and PJ is a snow leopard. Business was slow one day so they were working their way through Doc's supply of ice cream. They were eating stuff like walrus ripple, and herring chocolate chip.
Sandy asked if PJ had ever tried the rocky road, and when PJ said no Sandy said that she needed to try it. It had real flying squirrel in it.

Some jokes work better when you read them because of the way words are spelled. Others work better when you say them aloud - also because of the way words are spelled.

For a while people were posting those Karen and Smudge memes in the meme thread. And he let his opinion be known about "that stupid cat and that obnoxious blonde woman".
You need to remember things like that with choosing presents.

I hit a nostalgic bend a while back, went to make Mama's goulash recipe.
Recipe calls for a 16 ounce package of egg noodles. Fine. Except now the noodles are in 12 ounce packages. Throws the whole thing out of balance.
I have a recipe of my grandmother's for a chocolate cake. It has a shaved Hershey bar on the top, sitting on the frosting.
The ingredients list includes a 5 cent Hershey bar.
I read a few years ago that Mr Hershey apparently was the guy that came up with shrinkflation. He wanted his candy bar to stay a nickel. So when sugar went up or cocoa went up, he made the bar smaller so he could still sell it for a nickel. But at least he was honest. When the price of his components went down he made the bar bigger again.

At least I deleted it from my files the second time. So there should not be a third.

Well, I thought I deleted it but I just found it in a different folder. It's gone now.
Hopefully.
Of course they merged. Why wouldn't they merge? They had to merge.

Instead I'm making this Carmelized Pasilla chile tritip.
I read that last word as tripe.
Why would someone serve tripe at a holiday dinner?
Read it again. Ooohhh. Yeah that makes a little more sense.

Three couples die. They are waiting at the pearly Gates. St Peter says to the first man, "All you care about is alcohol. You spent your entire life trying to get more and more alcohol. You even married a woman named Brandy. You can't come in."
Then he turns to the second man. "All you care about is money. You spent your entire life trying to get more and more money. You even married a woman named Penny. You can't come in."
Hearing this, the third man turned to his wife and said, "Let's go Fanny. He's not going to let us in either."

Jewish lawyer met a Chinese doctor. Said he was surprised they got along so well. The doctor asked why.
"Well, you know, Pearl Harbor."
The doctor said, "That was Japanese, I'm Chinese".
The lawyer said, "Japanese, Chinese - I can't tell you apart".
The doctor says, "Well, you sank the Titanic!"
"What!?!?"
"Greenberg, Goldberg, iceberg - all the same to me."

Back in the late '80s I used to watch a TV show called Body by Jake.
It was an exercise show. Many of his exercises, he did them with a 1 lb dumbbell in each hand. And he said if you didn't have a dumbbell go get a can of Mama's green beans out of the cabinet.
Because back then canned vegetables were a pound. Then they went to 15 oz. Now most of them are 14.

That guy with the MG42 10/22 - I don't know who he is. But I was not impressed with his video.
Do you normally turn on a video to watch somebody load a magazine? It just seems to me that if you were going to show a video firing a gun that requires a detachable magazine, and you are going to shoot it more times than one magazine full - you need to have several loaded magazines there. Shoot the 10 rounds, replace the magazine and shoot 10 more. Not shoot and then spend 30 seconds loading the magazine and 10 seconds shooting and another 30 reloading.
That's why I quit watching about halfway through. I know how to load a magazine. I don't need to watch somebody do it again and again and again and again.

It's not only sauce at my house, it's spaghetti sauce. When I first heard the term marinara sauce, maybe 10 years ago, I thought that was what it was called and I called it that until I learned that marinara does not have meat in it. So I went back to calling it spaghetti sauce. I put it on spaghetti. I use it when I make lasagna. I put it on chicken and bake it. But whatever I do with it, it's spaghetti sauce.

I didn't know they made papers that big!
You never heard of Cheech and Chong's Big Bambu? It came with a paper.
It would probably have to be a small turkey though.
