That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for April 29, 2020

The dog was embarrassed to be seen with his owner.

“Hey lady, I have a gift for you to unwrap!”

Great attempts at phallic portraiture gone horribly wrong.

Mongolian desert – Let’s Make A Deal – "You are from choosing what is in box, Yes? Or, I will make to present to you 40 millions of Mongolian tughrik money of international value fourteen American dollars and thirty two copper coins additionally. Or, you can have what is behind wall Bataar is stand in front. Choose quickly! Or you will be shot!

Quickdraw and Baba Louie

♩i’m not waiting on a lady…

“Only £20, boys”.

“Does this stick coming out of my back make me look fat?”

Who IS Navin Johnson?

The Little Dutch Boy chilling before the flood.

“Is that a sword in you’re pants, or are you just happy to see me?”

“Excuse me, I seem to be pinned to this wall by a spear. Could you please pull it out?”

When he draws his sword, his pants fall down (And if he yanks it our really, fast, other things will fall off as well)

Why yes. That is a pistol in my pocket, but I am also very happy to see you.

Good thing he registered that name, because who wouldn’t want to steal that?

Grabbing life by the horns, but being sensible by wearing a diaper to the running of the bulls.

Just the thing for open carry.

Trying to decide whether to “let sleeping dogs lie”. (“Do I have enough weapons for it ? Are my ‘jewels’ adequately protected ?”)

“Excuse me while I whip this out.”

Modeling the new underwear from Fruit of the Load.

“Yeah, that’s right. I’m a French model. Bone Joower.”

He’s a child of the street indeed/ and the street has long since gone to seed/ so he seems to be schleppin’ / a suitable weapon/ for any conceivable need/ He’s a strange combination for sure/ but for some, he possesses allure/Is the lad in the diaper/ a veritable viper/..or is he merely part of the tour ?

“I’m plugging the dam to keep it from failing and flooding the town”

“That isn’t a dam. It’s a wall.”

“But what about the leak I’ve got my finger in?”

“That’s where the dog peed a few minutes ago…”

I always wanted to make keysters – key holders in the shape of butts

Man holding up a wall so it doesn’t collapse on a dog.

He’s chosen this lonely station/ to achieve “social isolation” / but his shrewd adaptation / of intimidation/ has gained him no appreciation..
