It’s “Oklahoma hot” in Korea. Haven’t experienced that taste of home before. But I’m getting out of this place for a few days, and now seems like a good time to drop some more nonsense, in tribute to the nonsensical Larry King USA Today column.

My weather app tells me it feels warmer than the actual temperature. That tells me the actual temperature is WRONG…

Don’t you ALWAYS throw up in your mouth?

Combat infantry means bravery and heroism. Infant combat is just plain wrong…

Whoopi Goldberg is just as beautiful on the inside…

Trader Joe’s? Good. Traitor Joe’s? Nobody would shop there…

Does anything loom small?

I like to read about the Old West and speculate. I wonder what the Indians would’ve thought of Scalpicin…

A man who is not afraid of jail has the courage of his convictions…

"Due process” is a legal term. “Do process” is something that happens at a hair salon…

Does anyone claim one of the OTHER moon landings was fake?

Every pot shop is a joint operation…

Djibouti is probably the funkiest country…

Do the Chinese say, “Look for the chopsticks in the road”?

Another term for a toupee is hair apparent…

I forgot my dream vacation a few minutes after I woke up…

Do priests get gifts on Father’s Day?

I don’t have a wheelhouse…

The Earth is not flat. If anything, it’s a bit sharp…

I feel like if you call someone a trash collector, you might need to explain further…

When we fold laundry, why do we give it that extra pat?

I could never do meditation, because I get itchy…

Who certified that the whip is indeed a “Miracle Whip”? I do not accept it unless it went through the Vatican.

Sorry, but yes, there are coincidences…

A murder complaint sounds a bit whiny…

My friend Eric lost a ton of money on fake Happy Days memorabilia. It was all a big Fonzie scheme…

Calling a guy a soda jerk must’ve hurt his self-esteem. Maybe they all had attitudes…

I saw a Son of Sam documentary. Berkowitz is starting to look like Richard Dreyfuss…

Greek salad is the best of all salads…

Thank you for reading. I must go away.

    They did a lot of business for a zombie troupe.

    I see what you did there, and who am I to disagree?
