(last time I'm going to post about this, this week, I promise)

The book is actually live...like real people can actually buy it. So do it. And then read it. And then tell me how great it was. Or how terrible.

Ninjito finally got the checkride for his PPL scheduled. He’s really nervous. So if you’re the type to do the praying thing it’d be useful.

Fun fact about me.

I had a dream once about scurvy. Somehow connected with a "the floor is lava" fear.

Dreams are weird.

[Merriam-Webster @MerriamWebster]

Vitamin C is also called ‘ascorbic acid.’

The Greek-derived prefix ‘a-’ means “not, without.”

‘Scorbutus’ in New Latin means “scurvy.”

So ‘ascorbic acid’ is ‘no-scurvy acid.’

I spoke to the Ninjito's 2nd grade class about being an entrepreneur. I asked if any of them knew what that meant. One of his classmates said "someone who makes a lot of money" & I laughed & then went home and cried.

The "stars on the American flag" question was worse.

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

THEY ASKED ME HOW MANY STARS WERE ON THE AMERICAN FLAG WHEN I WAS IN THE AIR FORCE

Happy birthday to all you Veterans out there.

And look into Tylenol for arthritis. Bigger dose.

@TangyBuckeye The hardest part is gonna be not swearing.

No, YOU’RE nervous about telling a bunch of kids about your military experience on a zoom call.

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t know what day it is anymore.

@RealKhaylee Psych is a good option. Or if you have it available there was a British show called coupling that ran four seasons in the early 2000s and was hilarious.

Nice little sunset

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

So Carson Wentz… oof

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

@ShamashAran I’ll never admit to that.

There are a couple of people who I’ve suspected of not being who they pretend to be on here. Some details that just tweak that part of the brain that says something’s wrong but you can’t verbalize it. And how do you call someone on it?

“There are no women on the internet” is a much safer strategy

Confession time

I’m not actually a ninja

It’s sad that this post has to be made. My kids are both adults but just, and they grew up in the age of the internet, so they just know things that we had to learn the hard way. Like “there are no women on the internet”

I remember when the Manti Teo thing happened and so many people laughed at the guy. I just felt bad for him. He had no idea.

Poor bastard.

People who maliciously catfish… they’re on my list.

@HarmeetKDhillon just wanted to say I was disappointed that you left your position but I knos you’re smart enough that your decision was for very good reasons. Not that you needed my approval or anyone else’s.

Also don’t let the bastards get you down. I’m sure you already know they’re all idiots.

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

CJ Stroud looked a lot better against a Harbaugh-coached defense when they didn’t know what plays were coming. Weird.

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

@Mark68002312 @Joeinblack It really is. 🤣🤣🤣

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

When your first post after replying to a priest's post contains multiple forms of the word "ass"

[Bacon Ninja @baconninja]

To the jackass who called me pretending to be the sheriff's office asking about me missing jury duty: nice try, asshole.
