I will love it and squeeze it and call it George

#1152

Oh, good choice. If it's on bond paper, I can call it James.

I'm having my censure dipped in bronze for preservation.

Hay wait a minnit. This isn't going on my permanent record, is it?

#1156

I don’t have a censure to dip in bronze.

I keep reading this and thinking of people having incense smoke thrown at them.

Because "Censers" are those things Priests use to spread incense smoke. Also known as Thuribles.

#1159

That's thuribly disturbing.

I Thought a Thurible was a mid 20th century comedic writer! (might have been for The New Yorker)

Being censured and $8 gets you coffee at Starbucks.

Some churches take their thurible swinging very seriously.

Gotta get that upper body workout somehow.

Thank you, bob, for my censure, which I assume is a hanging censure so it may be dipped.

Saw the word, and immediately the back of my head spit this old Star Trek title out - The Trouble with Thuribles

I believe it was The Thurible with Tribbles. I remember as clearly as if by the Mandela Effect the scene in which the ship chaplain started swinging the thing and the tribbles came pouring out of it.

In the latest episode of Star Trek Discovery, the Romulan President of the Federation briefly considers using an invented outbreak of Tribbles to delay a party of Breen Imperial Warriors from boarding a Starbase to take possession of a prisoner but chooses to claim that there are extradition formalities to get through.

The average American commits three felonies a day.

Congress must avoid over-legislating issues that ought to be left to state and local governments.
