I’m basically immune to poison ivy and poison oak. A result of constant contact playing in the woods behind our house growing up.
Wonder if I could run some on my hands, show up pretending to be a leftscum fellow traveler, and shake a BUNCH of hands? LOL.
Probably illegal, so I won’t. But it’s a fun idea...
I wonder how the Westboro church gets around Jesus statement ‘blessed are they who mourn’ and how they are not declared a fraudulent church and not eligible to be getting a tax break as such.
“A result of constant contact playing in the woods behind our house growing up.”
Eggs Ackley the opposite for me! I used to be able to roll in it as a kid. Then, in my teens, working as an apprentice carpenter, the guys clearing lots burned a bunch of it. Almost ended up in the hospital!
The poison ivy worked well on my signs! Neighbor’s kid got it big time! And,,,, as a 14 year old,,,, I’d bet he didn’t just get it on his hands,,,, if ya know what I mean! 8^D
Also see the thread: Is Fred Phelps a Democrat? (Yes - supported Al Gore).
LOL re the kid.
BTW, constant exposure can result in immunity (me) or hypersensitivity (several buddies of mine and apparently you). Got one buddy who had to go to the hospital last time he was exposed to a little poison ivy. Not fun...
“Not fun...”
Definitely not! Last time I got it was during Primitive weapon/Black powder season in January, in Ohio. I didn’t think the oils would be active in the near zero degree environment. WRONG!
If somebody ever does shoot these steaming pantloads I hope I'm on the jury. They'll be home for supper and it will still be warm.
Fred Phelps has run for several offices, including Governor, as a registered Democrat. And he still is.
You’ve gotta read this. :-)
XCELLENT! I have a whole strip of poison ivy along the roadside. Finally, a good use for it!
Like - who's gonna know? They won't break out for hours
” I have a whole strip of poison ivy along the roadside. Finally, a good use for it!”
Yup! Just buy some cheap, disposable rubber/latex gloves, and have some fun!
“Boy, you a long way from Kansas. We don’t take well to outside folk stirrin’ up trouble down here ”
Thanks for the link, this will come in handy next time I need to talk to one of my democrat relatives/friends ;)
EXCELLENT!!!
My practical jokesterism went into high gear during the last presidential election!
Make them pay! In unpleasant ways!
Nice!
