Henceforth of this moment, when you hear a drummer banging away on a trash can of a snare drum, it should be known as pulling an Astro’s” #astros #trashcans #snaredrum

I learned today that Avocado’s were once referred to as “alligator pears” and I can’t help but think this is a case for progress not always being for the better. #avocado #alligator #pear #toast

With only 60 games this coming baseball season, please consider hitting the the Astro’s players twice as much as you were going to so the numbers work out.

I’m really looking forward to all the “guess who” board game jokes that are going to happen when people see the cardboard cutouts behind home plate, because out of date board game jokes seem like they’re at an all time low

I hate the term cancel culture so much. You are not being cancelled, Karen. You are experiencing consequences. Novel, I know. Consequence culture. The idea of being cancelled is a binary. Either on or off. Consequences can be discussed and dialed in.

So the government wants us to drive on the “right” side of the road? Why? So they can know where we are at all times?? I’m not a sheep. Car accidents are a hoax. I’ve never been in one. PS in England they drive on the left side and they seem to be alive.
