    My late, lamented goldfish probably remembered the day I won it at a high school carnival.

    No, goldfish aren’t related to elephants. I checked

    Correct. Birds excrete both urine and feces from the same duct/orifice.

    I wonder who the opening band was for Nirvana at that opening show? The Raincoats perhaps? Whatever, this story is thin gruel for the real RBION buffs like myself. Sometimes I think they’d be better off just making stuff up. The bird poop story is completely lame too, wowsers, you say there’s pee in that poop too?!? Sorry descendants of Ripley, this installment just don’t cut the mustard. Now where did I put the Ding-Dongs I was gonna have for breakfast?

    And you don’t want to know where eggs come from. Or more to the point, pass through.

    You’re welcome.

    Nirvana’s opening act was Calamity Jane. And the concert was on YouTube once upon a time. Nirvana did do some well known tunes, Lithium, About a Girl, All Apologies. But no Smells Like Teen Spirit.

    I met a girl named Nirvana yesterday. I asked her “Did your parents give you than name while you were still In Utero?”.

    She was like “What?”.

    I just shook my head and said “Nevermind.”

    I have a date with a girl who loves Nirvana. She asked me what to wear on our date next week.

    I told her, “Come as you are.”

    Until next time.

    Thanks for clarifying on the bird poop content. I feel so much better knowing that.

    The Nirvana jokes I posted all feature the names of songs or albums recorded by the band Nirvana.

    Two goldfish are in a tank.

    One turns to the other and says “do you know how to drive this thing?!”

    A Goldfish dumped his date.

    Goldfish: I can’t believe this, She photoshopped her body to be beautiful, how did this happen? Then he realized he was dating a catfish.

    A nerd went fishing and caught a very small goldfish. She spoke to him with a human voice begging to be left alive because she was so young, and if he let her go, she promised she would grant him a wish.

    The nerd thought a little and said “Ok, i will let you go, but don’t let me die a virgin”.

    This is how he gained immortality.

    I’ve found the bird poop info to be handy most of my life. Because I’ve almost always had pet birds, people would ask me why bird poop was so messy. Since it’s a combination of urine and feces, it’s usually very wet, and therefore sloppy, and a small amount smears all over the place.

    Lol! An audience that is abusive to the opening act deserves the second-rate songs.
