Candidates babble,
Out toward the rabble,
With forked tongue in cheek,
at least twice a week,
In hopes to make brabble.

Hillary and Bernie sitting in a tree
Two Comrades both claiming victory.
It's an aging hippie squabble
A geriatric kind of brabble
A fight to the death for the Democratic party.

Peblian indeed, a worthy contribution adding bramble to our lexicon.

And don’t forget my favorite FR Thread, APOD, from the Hubble!

But I’m rambling...

I have been expecting a post like yours. Agreed, FR is brabble central. A graphic to demonstrate:

"You're about as useful as a poopy flavored lollipop," exclaimed Patches O'Houlihan to his useless and utterly pathetic dodgeball team.

I was talking about Babbling, not Bubbling!!!!

Nevertheless, your “custom post” reminds me of the occult way in which the Hillary Witch defeated Bolshevik Bernie in the Iowa Caucuses!!!!

FR has been a home for strange bedfellows since its inception. I cherish the moments, many, many of them.

Acclaim and victory to you. A perfect tribute to a matched set of brabblers.

No no no. Brabble doesn’t rhyme with squabble.

(Unless brabble is pronounced with a proper Queen’s English accent...or...squabble is pronounced by a proper Southern mountain country hick such as I.)

Yes, yes, of course. I had bubbling on the brain.

What happened in that photo...did someone refuse to get out of her sister’s bedroom? That’s all it takes here!

Per your graphic, there’s no way that would reach the heavens at that sharp an angle. Unless they were going to mount a telescoping building extension on top. Or they were all planning to wear really tall stilts. Or it housed a rocket. Maybe it was to be a hotel for visiting fallen angels.

Anyway, God didn’t like it.
