Goal this week: try to work in the phrase “you sil!”
@nightscotsman Another one for the quiz game “1940s slang or gay slang”?
@GayOldTime Poor Betty. Bob needs some serious counselling for his anger issues. He also needs a decent haircut. North Korean chic isn't a good look on him.
@GayOldTime Panel 4: “Cad!” yelled Betty, as she stuffed a can of deviled ham down Bob’s throat. “Make your own lunch from now on!”

@thefalcon That section of the supermarket has a lot of mysterious things in cans and jars — a cabinet of curiosities.
@GayOldTime That brings memories, the product not the ad. I had quite a few sandwiches with deviled ham as a kid back in the day, usually blended with Cheez Whiz.
Oh, and heaven forbid wife gets hubby the wrong coffee. . .
