>I skimmed a few Bitcoin and El Salvador articles and felt glad that the Good Lady didn't want any more children as their reading rendered me practically sterile.

good grief...can't survive one of your posts without laughing my eyes out. It appears that daily post is fast becoming a ritual for us...you should be thankful it wasn't worse...lol

Every day I thank my lucky stars it wasn't worse!! ;OD

Every time I read the word HUGE I think about a former el Presidente de la Unitades Statos del Americanos. Was that not something about some wall, a huge one, it's big, but really big, it's huge...!?

Has Bitcoin already moved accordingly? BTC Mining will now move from Tjaainaa to those countries I guess. Motivation maybe behind it all is like that: "If Tjaainaa do not want it then we will offer our selves." Might be a smart move of them "Toga toga toga!" party countries.

Somehow I did not get even the slightest tickle out off all that huge news. But I forgot to take my 10mg anti-cynica, so that might be the reason why.

> I thought back to Lynn, an erstwhile girlfriend who, in a Tardis-Esque way, was larger on the inside than she was on the outside.

Now that Tardis thing indeed was HUGE inside. But I'm not gonna ask exactly in which way she was. 😂

https://c.tenor.com/mr3e_CYWd4AAAAAM/bitcoin-crypto.gif

The wall!! Thats right, it was gonna be huge and keep everyone out!! Or was it in? You never knew with him.

He is a proper FUDer too with his ridiculous commentary on something he knows nothing about.

You must remember to take the anti-cynica!! How else can you survive!?!? :OD

Just to make sure I shall ten fold the anti-cynica dose!

Just ten-fold? I thought we were like GODS! Make it 100-fold and you have yourself a deal!

We arrrr, cor blimey, Clan Mc Brilliant anol!
Deal mate, a hundred fold it is! May I's never ever be cynical again!

There wont be no room for them cynics in the Clan! After a hundred fold dose there might be no room for cynical ever again! :OD

Just remembered some song lyrics I wrote back in them days of the previous version of this blochchain of which its name we shall not mention. Where in the Clan Mc Brilliant first was mentioned.

"If you upvote me, I will upvote you, that's Hive for me and you!" Easy peasy to change that part.

But with: "It's your life long dream, to be free on BEEP" I could not fit in Hive.

Some'in like "You know you'll thrive, when you post on Hive..." Now that might lead to something usefull.

(Excuse me for the diversion. 🤡)

That's Hive for me and youuuuuuu! 🎸 YEAH!

(Dang, I should have taken more of them ACs way earlier. Now where is my fogging guitar!)

I remembered that song! It would definitely take some tweaking but it is amazing how much of it would still fit.

Now, where is your fogging guitar!

😁

I think "Hyuge!" is the word you are looking for?

Hahaha, yes, it was more pronounced like that! 😁

Hahahah, I was gonna go with YUUUUUGE!! :OD

> What the fuck? That wasn't a country? Wasn't that a fancy robe that the Romans wore or something? Unless it was that country where everyone was fat? Or was that Samoa? Not for the first time I shook my head at my own ineptitude at Geography.

Ah C'mon @meesterboom. Just swap one letter of that unknown country and you instantly will become an expert in Geography. Let's call it Tanga! That's indeed a country that really needs to know the world regardless if it adopts Bitcoin as legal tender or not! };)

Tanga!!! I have been there!!! Ok, I have not been there. I have worn them. It was just a joke you understand. I didn't find them at all interesting. Oh no, all is above board here! ;OD

> It was just a joke you understand. I didn't find them at all interesting.

Uhm, weird. To understand well and justify this part of your comment in the quote... I suspect it was because the Good Lady suddenly leaned over your shoulder while you were replying me just to spy on why the heck you were typing the previous comment with such excitement. :o)

Haha, it was my inner Good LAdy that was looking over me. I have been over-conditioned and am now second guessing myself!! I confess! I confess!!!

Gee, then you are indeed a lucky man buddy. You've already managed to have a lovely inner & outer Good Lady living with you. LoL

I never thought of it that way! I guess I can let myself out of the basement now. Phew. Thats a relief!

Yeah, get out of the basement and begin to master the histrionic art like the true masters. :D

https://media1.tenor.com/images/4da9a2eaed464d579a6ca7cae34afd75/tenor.gif

My MAster! You have found footage of the very dog that taught me all I know!!

I already imagined that in the lupine and canine world you had to have had the best teachers around. :)

I am happy not to disappoint!! :0D

In the least wolf! So let's go back to the next geography lesson....

¡Cuz it's Tanga time!

http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/wolfeyes.gif

Its images like that that have stayed with me since childhood. Like that one where the wolf jumps up on the table and wolf whistles. That was how I approached women for a very long time. No wonder my success rate was low :OD

> No wonder my success rate was low :OD

Yeah! your success rate may well have been low sometimes. But you should also confess how many times Mother Luck rewarded you when "surprisingly" your messy wolve's aim finally hit the mark. ;o)

>I'll take the cat puke.

You really should sell it as an NFT.

I could, if I could get one to dry out and not look like one of Burt Reynolds old moustaches that managed to escape one night whilst he slept!

Hahahahaha!!!! 😂🤣 Every time @meesterboom... It's every time... You have a gift for working stomach muscles into cramps. We might be able to market your posts as a solution to excessive abdominal fat.

Lol, I am sure that some might say they are the equivalent of excessive abdominal fat! :OD

Ahhh... But isn't that why bacon smells so good in a pan? It certainly does enrich the task of opening morning-laden eyelids. And it's nothing short of a miracle atop a sandwich with some cheese. 😁

Aaargh, now you have me wishing my life away till the morning so that I can make that happen!! lol!

Lol... smelling tomorrow's bacon... are we?

For some reason that sounds almost wrong but yes, yes indeed!!

That's some hot meat!! 🤣🤣

My wife's almost home... I better get off this thread before she finds out what's cooking. She might leave me...

For what's in the pan...

Lock the doors. Lower the blinds. Tell her it never happened!

Dumbest thing i have read all week.

Lol. You should try reading some of the shit you write! :0D

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

They are indeed! And that makes it a splendid old world :O)

I like and appreciate the honesty in your comment. The honesty alone is respectable. But writing it under one of the posts of one of the most successful authors of the Hive blockchain takes some bravery/courage not many of the users has. This is admirable. 99% of the users probably would not (dare to) do it.

@lucylin am I going to get spit roasted in the bunker for this?

Only in yer own depraved fantasies, matey !

Every year the same thing 🆙 and downs

True and every year the same people weep and getting their teeth at the same old same old!!

Out here, there area few women who out-hunt and out-fish the menfolk. Let's discuss that. Anything to avoid writing about the Bitcoin BS!

It would be far more interesting!! It was a genuine thought when the image of all of those trophy fish photos flashed through my mind. Women hunters for the win!!

It's not as prevalent among the female population, but the general outdoorsiness of rural America does still generate a fair few. And I know of families where everyone who can gets a tag to fill the freezer with venison. I suspect some don't bother with permission or paperwork, too.

I have always thought that if it lives on the land them it is fair game. Me and my friends used to fish on a permit only river. Always say under the sign for extra giggles. With the freedom of guns I can imagine that most people especially in the outdoorsy bits know how to shoot, it would be daft not to

You have a great one too! :0)

Yes, I was watching the news on TV this morning.
One country is making BTC legal and another is making it illegal.

The drama never ends with Bitcoin thats for sure!

Well, more exposure to people is certainly better.

Dang... really well written, colorful (if unpleasant) imagery, and a poignant point.

I'll take a post like this over more El-whatever news any day.

That said, perhaps we have different feeds because I've seen more ppl talking about said news on Reddit than I have on Hive, lol.

Thanks for a great read man, and if it helps, I aim for much higher quality content and have been posting a LOT lately. 🙏 ;)

Unpleasant imagery is my bag, I would be lost without it!

That is funny, we may have opposite style feeds on Reddit relative to here. My feed here is awash with such nonsense and on Reddit it is blissfully free of it all. Ahhhhh, such joy!

Post more, 40 times daily, there is no other way!! ;O)

(grin) I picked up on that, and it definitely does the trick. :)

And lol, that is funny, the mystery of the algorithms strikes again!

I posted...uh... again... if that counts...I guess... 😁

I just saw!! And I thought... I have the cooler phone...

:0D

LMAO, you probably do, but mine gets the job done for now. 😁

Posted yet again, but still not at that sweet 40x daily mark, bro. I can only apologize. 🤣

The reading was so powerful it's rendered you sterile has it XD

damn

At least now you don't have to worry about accidentally making more babies!

I wonder with the villain characters in any given kids' show if the names are self-fulfilling prophecies or if they were monikers that were adopted because well everyone was accusing them of doing this thing anyway so they may as well and if the same applies to pets XD

I had a little mini-tantrum last night, was searching stuff trying to find some hints to resolve a Blender problem and saw a promising looking headline only to discover it was basically a copy/paste of one of the manual pages and I was like

WHAT IS THE FREAKING POINT.

Cleaning up cat puke is definitely preferable to "writing" that drivel XD

J would probably still end up cleaning it up as I would take too long requiring too many breathers in between because pissweak stomach x_x

https://technonaturalist.net/sites/default/files/styles/sensible_display/public/art/2019/09/heartfyn_0.png?itok=QHDoN0HE

I may not have to worry about making any more babies but my heart goes out to the young uns that hunt for tadpoles at the pond in the local park. Without my overflow being flushed away, it will be a bare pond this Summer!

Ewww, I think I just horrified myself??

Whats worse about those kind of posts is that often they do a worse job of copy pasting it that the original itself. Its not usually hard to improve something but it seems all too easy to make it worse.

We are at the Winter coat moulting to summer coat stage and Shady (the little beast) is contorting herself into all manner of shapes houking out the acres of fur she has licked off herself. Its foul!

I'm a little concerned about your biology if they're tadpole sized, sounds like something you should probably see a doctor about (or not because if they find out you're not human you might "disappear" D:).

Now please forgive me for finding you inadvertently horrifying yourself hilarious XD

Oh no, is Shady a medium or long furred cat? D: I'm not looking forward to that with gorc's medium furred cat x_x

She is just a plain old medium but boy when the seasons turn does she shed like a maniac and because she licks it all up the hairballing is spectacularly gross. Nothing seems to help either. I comb her like mad and still she vomits up tons of ratty looking things!

Tha tadpoles will see no Doctor! ;OD

Shave her. That'll learn her.

Then sleep with one eye open ;D

[IMAGE: https://media.tenor.com/images/350c6e507703fb24c89167c05689356c/tenor.gif]

Arent they the most horrifying things though, hairless cats, so damn creepy looking!

I have been tempted though, lol!

They're so ugly they're cute XD J keeps saying I can't have one though :<

LoL! XD

They are kinda cute, someone on the chain has them. I can't remember who and the more I looked the more I thought it might be nice.

Well, it would be nice for my allergies that's for sure

You'll be able to buy it ugly seasonal jumpers just for the lolz and the content when it's cold and have to sleep with one eye open the rest of the year XD

[IMAGE: https://media.tenor.com/images/d39107f00961b24fa16c0a4650b073ef/tenor.gif]

Lol. I like the idea of crazy jumpers on a bald cat. It is making me giggle

>Will people trot out any old shit in their desperation for a daily post?

err YES....but I'd have still let have loved to hear your take on BTC as legal currency!

Hehe, if it turns out to actually be something that is useful and not some crock of workaround for someone that doesn't actually mean something in the end, it might be good. Then again. Its El Salvador... :OD

Funny thing was, last night I was watching Kevin Bridges on YT last night and his routine about Cameron starting the work experience thing when he said it was to help improve the unemployed's self-esteem and the guy trying to pay his gas bill in 'self-esteems' ! Not sure why I created a link between that and BTC becoming a legal currency in El-Salvador though....

Kevin Bridges is hilarious. I was watching one of his videos the other night as well. Cracked me up. I am proud he is a fellow Glaswegian, he portrays us exactly the way we are!

I bet he would be quite blunt about Bitcoin, lol

My favorite part is the many people who give hours upon hours of financial advice, saying exactly what tokens will be going up and down and why and how, and then keep stuttering out the b-b-but this is not financial advice! every 5 minutes

That is my favourite bit too. As if it lends them extra validity. They always seem to call out their successes after the fact too. hehe

Hairballs are really something nasty, this is why almost nobody wants to clean up that. Maybe this is why cats are so cute, so they could get away with this. Brrrrrr just thinking about it gives me chills😂😂

Imagine wearing a wig made out of them, yeeeurch.

Of course, I do not know what I said that but it just popped into my head. They are disgusting, feegy awful things!

Ewww furry sticky wig. Well at least the wind wouldn't take it as it is too smelly even for the wind😂😂😂

There is no known wind that could remove that from your head! lol

Klick baits will always be around us :) Probably when something really huge will happen we will be already "aaah Bitcoin, I remember that thing"

I wonder if that day will ever come or we will all be in thrall to the great daddy bitcoin forever!!

It will come when it will be adapted. I am thinking about 5-8 years from now

I think that is the first realistic timescale I have ever seen!

But hey, credit card adaptation took about 40+ years... I can still remember old ladies yelling "I will never use this plastic shit, they can steal your money from it, blah blah blah" and today they are paying freaking bubble gum with cards. Everything new needs time to adapt, but in crypto, it will be much much faster. Why? Because of the era, we live in "everything must be super fast, now now now, yesterday is too late" and globalization.

I remember when cards started making an appearance. My mum still used to go down to the bank and take out her weekly money in one go. Even up till the end she rarely used her card, it was cash cash cash. Me, I am card daft. I swipe everything!

So yeah, hopefully, now we are in the 21st century it will go a bit quicker

Thanks for continuing to make Hive awesome.

No, thank you!!

You are a very funny guy. I hate reading about crypto and usually flick past but so glad I read this. Funny as fuck. You should add the #lols tag. Maybe I'll repost it in there.

Cheers mate! I didnt even know there was a #lols tag.

I hate those posts as well, they are all the same Run to the hills, prices are up/down blah blah, Its good to have spoke at them :OD

@frot do you think this should have a lols tag? It made me lol
I meant all crypto posts, if they made them understandable or entertaining fine, but they don't so can't learn from them or laugh at them either. It's like a club and I'm not in it.

https://peakd.com/hive-101750/@lols/lols-a-new-community-for

Hah. Well said. What you just did is an example of how you are going to do it if you do.

What do you bring to the table? Why should we read what you wrote as opposed to simply going and reading one of these many articles?

Exactly. I always like reading from the source rather than a rush job of a translation to avoid plagiarism detecting which is what most of them do.

Long time no see dude! I didn't know you were here!

I've been back for about a month, month and a half so far.

Oh and by the way I like your image for this post. It looks like you are channeling Devin Townsend and getting ready to sing Kingdom. :)

Tis good to see an old face, you know what I mean. Hope you are enjoying it? Its a bit more different and yet a bit more exactly the same.

Old Devin.. Haha, oh that takes me back. I haven't heard of him for a while, I will of course pretend that is exactly the look I was going for!

So far so good. It feels a lot like when Steemit was still a fun place to be. I'd say even a little better. The spam down votes are not nearly as bad YET.

Not yet, hopefully never but I will go with not yet!!

Yeah, it defo has the early vibe going on before the bots wrecked everything and everyone became gnarly!

By the way...

IF that is not you then someone may be trying to draft off of your momentum. :)

I noticed it because it is the only account to downvote a post I did a couple of days ago. If it was you then that is fine as I can see why someone might want to downvote that particular post. Though with you I'd think you would be pretty vocal about why you did so. This person said nothing.

Hehe bells, that was me. I didn't even notice the author which is quite shameful. Sorry about that.

Its a terrible case of skimming a post for STEM and in STEM I can be a bit trigger happy as it suffers terribly from misuse of the tag. Which I mistakenly thought this was. I used to drop an explanation to posts I downvoted over there but it became quite an arduous task explaining the same thing over and over. Usually about the price of coins not being very STEM. In this case though, it was a genuine case of mistaken STEMity. I have fixed it now and even read the piece properly so once again, I do apologise.

Hey. If you have a legit reason then down vote. I just noticed the name.

I could actually see it as downvoted legit for the #science tag. I am not sure why I used that tag for that post. Likely because I wanted some people with scientific minds to chime in.

Nah, despite the hypocrisy I tend not to downvote authors I know when 'policing' the STEM tag. I think that is a very legit reason to use the tag and I should have paid more attention!

'policing' not being a term I am comfortable with btw but it seemed easiest way of describing it

I haven't written any METAL posts yet. Though I can feel them percolating back there somewhere in the gray matter.

Oh you need to get on it, there ain't enough metal in this ...

Bloody tried to embed it and failed

Heh. The first Anthrax song I really liked. Though I loved "Among the Living" in its entirety when it came out... played the hell out of that album.

Same here, I had sort of liked them in passing, then this came out and I listened to it non stop and then had to go back and re-listen to them again with a bit more intent. Great band

I had to do it. I liked your intro image so much I had to reblog it. :P

Lol, cheers man. Now if anyone else says Devin Townsend I must remember to say yes of course that's what I was going for :OD

Check it out if you haven't seen it...

Just toss some glasses on him and you're there.

Lol, you might be right! :0D

Reading the comments on your posts is way more entertaining. I cannot even add a decent comment as I am a day late and a dollar short.

However,, thanks for the entertainment. I knew I could count on you!

A day late is the fashionable thing! A dollar short however... It sounds like a movie!

Paycon (CON)

"A revolutionary crypto based off some open source software. We plan to change the world by devoting 1 hour to making the client and building the world best website in under 5 minutes. Paycon promises to cure cancer, aids and all deadly diseases through the power of thought. World hunger?? We will fix that. PSN network down? Trust Paycon to save the day. Wonder who Satoshi Nakamoto is? We found him. Still looking for Kony? We caught him.

Paycon will do everything you can imagine and more. With no buy support and a floor price so low we can even see it, Paycon will be the best investment you could make.

Version 2.0.1 comes with a the change of Multisend GUI which replaces the CON for Charity function. Multisend allows you to send up to 100% of your Stake to multiple addresses of your choosing. Link to the Cryptsy market has been added to the social/exchange tab and a small fix to the Hashsettings."

"Paycon is a parody, has no value, meaning or guarantees. If you mine it, shame on you."

I will mine it. I will buy it. I might even fuck it and by that I mean... I'm in!!! Show me the ~~monkey~~ PAYCON!!!!

But not if it's wind powered cos that's just weird.

;0)

Well it is a rough business, but I think we all are entitled to write a crypto shit- post now and again. In fact this post inspired me to do just that! Yes it is true some times I like to poke at the bear a bit and call everyones' baby ugly as it were. Indeed a title like Has Crypto Jumped the Shark is not going to win over many supporters lol. The best bet though is to cover it with insanely random photos that are questionable quality at best. Well that is my personal strategy and you see how well it has worked for me lol.

Random photos works well!!

I actually like a good crypto post is there is something behind it. I know I would be reading one with that title. It's the straight up copy of other articles I hate but where they feebly try to rewrite it.

Questionable quality... You do yourself a disservice!!

Ah, how I miss you me boom!! I finally did it, short and sweet and lots of pictures, but I posted something...we'll see if anyone can offer inspiration to keep me going ;)

Big hugs and a smooch to you and all the booms!

Yo Missy!! Nice to see ya!! I hope you are well?

Hope all the dreemits are doing good too :0)

It's ye olde Steemit debacle, innit? I mean, I get that people are trying to milk the system, but come on. At least add something to the conversation instead of profiting off someone else's work. Jesus H. Christ.

Hehe, exactly. Milk away but put a bit of effort in :0D

Hi @meesterboom ,You are right, there are many publications about BTC here, perhaps it is because the leo finance community is one of the most desired, you go to hive engine and by publishing in this community your income increases notably, I am telling you because I published in this community, leave to do it because a very, very arrogant lady made me forget that I am a man respectful of women and I told him everything he deserved, it was wonderful to do this, another topic to be looking for a daily publication, it is a bit complicated, but not all we talked about BTC, my last post is funny, well I laughed from the beginning until I finished the post.
Greetings and you do not need to search for a community, you are suitable in your post, you already know perfectly what to do, the experience is not improvised

I am glad to hear you are doing well in leofinance! It is the hot of communities that they give us the opportunity to pay and perhaps earn in different sections of the hive!
