    I hate breaking in new boots in the rain, on a train, or inside a plane. Sounds like Dr. Seuss

    My post from yesterday’s FA:Did anyone see the new(?) rule that we are only allowed two comments per minute? Am I wrong… has this rule been around awhile? The overlords are such crafty critters.-——-6turtle9 about 1 hour agoI commented on that a couple weeks ago, as it happened to me for the first time, but the only feedback I got was that it had occurred to a couple others as well, so not sure if it is a recent addition or not.

    This is what the message says:

    Our comment service allows only two comments per minute, so this can’t be posted. Please wait and try again later.

    Trying leaving more than two comments in a row and this is what you should get. Who knows? Maybe there’s a variety of messages for the same rule. Sort of like fortune cookies.

    If that’s what the friend wants, then that’s a nice thing to do for a friend.

    If it’s something that benefits the friend, but the friend didn’t ask for it, it’s probably a nice thing.

    Otherwise, I guess it’s a prank?

    Be careful doing the Worm or the Coffee Grinder on wet pavement.

    Never judge a person unless you’ve walked a mile in their shoes. Because then, when you judge them, you’ve got their shoes. And you’re a mile away.

    I hate breaking in boots for a friend – especially when they’re a size 9 and I’m an 11.

    Friends don’t let friends wear un-broken-in boots. (I never knew that.)

    Now where did my suede boots go, you know, the one’s that aren’t supposed to be out in the rain?

    Watched Blow The Man Down on Amazon. Somebody else’s boots play a key role. But they have no lines.

    So what’s the word on the street? I hear there’s a whole lot of strides being made to make it more comfortable for others…walking in their footsteps is a start….especially black rubber boots….but never judge until you walk in their shoes, in the rain, uphill, carrying an umbrella, in the Windy City…….

    …don’t touch my boots…

    …yet alone wear them…

    …if they don’t feel comfy has soon as you wear them…

    …trade them in…

    …this is 2022…

    …not 1984…

    …free your mind…

    ..your dokey will follow…

    @painedsmile. Whoa, dude. Rein it in. Don’t clutter the comments with statements or questions that could fit into one or two posts. No hard feelings, man.

    Crap. I was compiling a list of all the creators who actually write in often or on occasion to leave comments for their fans but I messed up and now my list is history. I had a list of maybe 15 creators so far.

    A friendly duck in a bikini with wax and army boots. Birds of a feather wax together.

    “Galoshlessness is foolishness when sharply slants the sleet,” a quote from the late Paul Jennings, humor columnist for the [London] Observer and later for the Telegraph.

    These boots are meant for walking in the rain [that’s called conflation, gentle reader]….
