    I upvoted it even though A, I don’t like the threat of violence, and B, I saw it coming.

    Now flashing back to an early episode of M*A*S*H when the camp had a shortage of heating fuel, and someone had broken into Col. Blake’s office to pilfer bits of his desk for firewood. “I know they’re desperate, but to cut off a man’s legs and steal his drawers….”

    He does not treat you “like crap”. He treats you like furniture… bad enough.

    No, Rat. Finally he’s back to puns again. You really want him to go back to the gloomy 2020 bad thing again?

    Best pun yet! Although the bar was set pretty low, like under that table low. Stephan’s not a quitter, sounds better than Stephan doesn’t know when to quit.

    The man had cancer in his leg, and had to have it removed. However, the surgeon removed the wrong leg. He ended up losing both legs. He tried to sue, but the case was thrown out of court. He did not have a leg to stand on.

    Pig wanted the top to be smooth but he felt roughed up instead.

    It must be an occasional table—sometimes it’s a table, sometimes it’s not.

    Reminds me of that joke.

    The police station was robbed and the thieves took all the toilets.

    The police were very upset as they had nothing to go on.
