Freaking neighbors!

[swampratt]

TIL swampratt will eat anything except veal.

It is not veal it is pink slime but red and yellow kind of like catfish slime feeling.
Very odd.
I ate all of it but wife passed on it and stuck with the ground deer instead.

Not major damage by a long shot, but it’ll cost a few grand to get it fixed.

Coming home last night from playing dominoes with friends at almost 11pm and get about a mile and a half from my house and one of my long time “neighbors” had cattle out in the road-as usual.

I slowed and swerved in a controlled manner when I saw a 500-600lb calf had jumped out from behind mama and then jumped into the side of my truck.

Called and texted neighbor last night after getting hit and calling county sheriff, no return call neighbor. Called this morning no answer then texted his son and daughter in law. Did have a Highway Patrolman call me, take a report and give me a case # though.

Neighbor calls back finally, told him what happened then he starts his B.S. crap saying Oklahoma is considered an open range state and it’s pretty much like an act of God sorta like when a deer hits you.

I tell him I need you to get with your insurance guy and get a claim started cause your calf hit my truck, he says the same line of crap over and over. I say to him how many times have I called you about your cattle being out?

I’ve known this jackwagon my whole life, never thought he’d do this to a “neighbor”. Now I’m gonna have to call his insurance guy tomorrow and start what I’m feeling is going to be a hassle.

Just a little peeved off rant and a PSA for ya’ll to be aware of your “good neighbors”.

Next time load it up, put it in the freezer, say nothing.

Isn't rouge some kind of makeup?

Yeppers...

"rouge

roo͞zh

noun​

1. A red or pink cosmetic for coloring the cheeks or lips.
2. A reddish powder, chiefly ferric oxide, used to polish metals or glass."

As a noun, yes, as a color, it's red. As an adjective, it’s a rouge (red) NOUN. Francais no less. vin rouge or whatever silliness my sister says...red wine. So calling the calf a "rouge calf" that means it's a red calf like Clifford the dog red.

You know what purple is but I should have said something silly like Iris, and Chartreuse, well, that's bright almost fluorescent green. Yay, color lesson.

What are the five base colors in painting/art? I'll send you a cherry dum dum if you get it right without google and in the next 3 minutes. Time now 2109

My wife once had a student turn in a paper with a great spellcheck failure.

The student kept talking about saddam hussein’s ‘rouge regime’ and not his rogue regime.

It really put world events into a different context

Just here to say that this is a FABULOUS exchange of culture on OSA.

The use of the word chartreuse does not qualify the use of "fabulous" by manly men. lol

Chartreuse is made by the Carthusian monastic order and is a holy liquor ordained by God. So totally not fabulous in the modern sense and infact very manly.
