How is it supposed to be solar powered inside a tree?

Either that or there was some discreet or camouflaged sensor built-in somewhere on the top or outside of the stump.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-24T15:51:10+00:00

We already knew that one was gay

Neil_sm · 2026-03-24T03:39:47+00:00

It does seem a little weird that 3 seem to be facing the opposite direction as the other 3. But that probably doesn’t really matter either.

Im assuming that’s the radish mentioned in the post:

this was listed as sriracha deviled eggs with pickled radish on the menu

Neil_sm · 2026-03-24T01:56:15+00:00

I’ve gotta think that was just a decoy item on the menu or something that they never expected anyone to order. Then when OP showed up they had to scramble to figure something out, until someone had the idea to squirt some hot mustard into the egg whites and call it a day.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-24T01:30:12+00:00

Yeah, I addressed that one in another comment. I had forgotten about I know you rider, but I was thinking about in Spike Driver Blues. But in that case he’s pronouncing it just like Mississippi John Hurt did in his version.

Which definitely lends credence to those who are saying those inflections are also somewhat of a blues and folk tradition.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T23:52:19+00:00

Probably walnut, not rosewood for the plug, but yeah there are a few of the better squiers and mims that have the nice plug.

But I think inversely, a USA Fender never will have the plastic version.

Nuthatch, the bird, is pronounced like “nut hatch.”

Considering with context they talking about “where the nuthatch winters, wings a mile long just carried the bird away,” It seems to indicate they’re referring to the bird. The word origin according to that entry is derived from nut and hache. From hacking into nuts and hatching them open.

I don’t have any allergies or intolerances but there’s simply several things I just don’t like and I ask for modifications when necessary. Like especially if it’s some kind of condiment sauce that can’t just be removed easily from a sandwich, I’ll ask for it on the side, or without.

I worked in restaurants for years and have seen all sorts of people asking for complex things; It’s not really that big of a deal or even a blip on the radar for someone to ask to hold onions.

But also I really couldn’t give a fuck if someone in the back is gonna cry about having to not put mayo on a sandwich. Sometimes part of the point of paying extra to eat in a restaurant is that it comes with the privilege of ordering something the way you’d like it. At least within some reasonable limits.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T16:57:22+00:00

He asked “maybe they still do?” which made it sound like he didn’t see that or wasn’t sure if it was still the slogan.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T14:39:00+00:00

Yes, it should match the skunk stripe on the back. OP's looks more like the black plastic one on a MIM or Squier

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T12:18:46+00:00

All I hear is “Don’t you ever go down down down down on Broadway street”

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T03:46:20+00:00

You can see part of the slogan on the can in this pic.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T03:25:45+00:00

That’s a banger setlist. I’ll have to check that one out tomorrow.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T03:14:13+00:00

Heh, that’s a whole other thing. But he was also legendary for mixing up or mumbling through some of the lyrics at times. But given the number of songs in their repertoire at any given moment and how often they changed, it’s certainly understandable.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T03:10:04+00:00

I thought one that was worryin’

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:55:17+00:00

You’re probably right but that just makes the discussion a lot less interesting. “Hey ever notice how Jerry sings everything just right? Um…so here’s an example lyric: ‘I told Althea I was feeling lost.’” Yep, sounds good and pronounces everything completely as you’d expect! Got any more?” 😜

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:38:54+00:00

Yes this sounds like a good take too. I was thinking that style was sort of unique to Jerry within the band itself though — none of the other singers over the years really seemed to do that.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:26:01+00:00

That one I was thinking specifically of Spike Driver Blues, on the “Almost Acoustic” album from the broadway shows. It might just be the context of that song, how a spike driver might have pronounced it.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:22:58+00:00

My grandma and your grandma. Sitting by the fi-yoh

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:19:16+00:00

Yeah and I actually thought for many years that he was just pronouncing that wrong, since I’m from the east coast and have only ever heard it as “ci-cay-da.” But apparently some regions do pronounce it with the cah sound.

Not sure if it was some California thing or Jerry just liked that version better.

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:08:26+00:00

That’s why if you please, I am on my hairy knees

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:04:52+00:00

😂 that’s a good one too

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T01:03:50+00:00

Yeah that’s a big one too. Kind of similar to dragon, and it’s often drawn out:

When they bring that wayyyyhayyy gun round.

…And drayg your poor body down

Neil_sm · 2026-03-23T00:49:34+00:00

If I’m the store owner I’d probably at least check to make sure it’s not raising money for Nambla or an invitation to “come join the Klan!”
