The Conquistador's Picture Of The Day

Fuck, he looks creepy. McDonalds had a campaign several years ago to attract younger consumers. It didn't work... One, they got "Millennials" confused with "Gen Z" as many do. Two, the campaign sucked. "Selfies, here I come." Three, in 2016 there were "evil clown sightings" worldwide and basically Ronald was toast.

But his "makeover" got me thinking... Maybe this is what I should wear for my date with Dove Cameron?

As if the news wasn't bad enough...

Today, CNN reported coronavirus can exist in semen and may be passed on to your partner during sex. Here's what they had to say:

The new coronavirus can persist in men's semen even after they have begun to recover, a finding that raises the possibility the virus could be sexually transmitted, Chinese researchers said Thursday.

A team at Shangqiu Municipal Hospital tested 38 male patients treated there at the height of the pandemic in China, in January and February.
About 16% of them had evidence of the coronavirus in their semen, the team reported in the journal JAMA Network Open. About a quarter of them were in the acute stage of infection and nearly 9% of them were recovering, the team reported.

"We found that SARS-CoV-2 can be present in the semen of patients with COVID-19, and SARS-CoV-2 may still be detected in the semen of recovering patients," Diangeng Li of Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital in Beijing and colleagues wrote.

"Even if the virus cannot replicate in the male reproductive system, it may persist, possibly resulting from the privileged immunity of testes," the team added. Privileged immunity means the immune system cannot fully reach the region to attack viral invaders.

If this is true maybe I'll just have to cut them off...

More news weirdness... Really, I have no idea how I could have made it all the way up to Connecticut overnight.

(Sorry couldn't resist. In the post above, I'm sure the one on the right is thinking "He lives in Zionsville?" Works every time... )

Another "fake ad" from CNN. Why "Millennials"? Shouldn't complain though, at least it's not that "80 year old man" from those "Born before 1985" ads. Was getting tired of people mistaking me for him...

But look closely... Do I have too much time on my hands or do I just have a dirty mind?

Even though Indiana has eased some of the coronavirus restrictions, my wife and I still always wear our masks when we go shopping…

(If you are wondering why her mouth isn't covered it's because of the "hotness" of the girl. I liked that picture. It is a shame to cover that face up at all. Me on the other hand...

Today’s “fake ad” once again confuses anyone “over 18” with the Baby Boom generation (those born approximately 1946-1964). But what would you expect from “clickbait”?

Shit, she’s not a “Boomer.” Hell she’s probably still in her 20’s. And our kitchen looks sort of like that. Our home was built around 2004-2005.

Here is a real example of a kitchen from the late 60’s or early 70’s. It’s an ad for GE. But I know she’s not thinking about cooking dinner… “I can’t wait for Andy to get home from his job in ‘Data Processing’ all that Fortran programming must be frustrating… a night of wild sex would take care of that. Especially on our new waterbed. We could put on the Doors and drink a bottle of Boone’s Farm.”

Of course, I have nothing against “Boomers.” To me it looks like that period in our history was awesome. Christ, they went to the fucking moon! And developed early versions of the technology we use today. But I especially like the women. You’ll hear no complaints from me!

Wish I’d added this to my previous post above: My “wife” from 1969 (center pic) continues “In fact Andy was telling me the other day his friends at UCLA and MIT were working on this far out idea to network computers around the world. Who would ever use something like that?”

(I told them it was an awesome idea but just to look out for Spam, Trolls, Haters, Pornography, “Fake News,” and Ransomware. They looked at me funny… See you later, got to go to another “WebEx” meeting. Maybe if I really could travel back in time I could stop this whole thing? Except in 1969, my wife would be the girl in the third picture above. )
