I received motie2's permission to post this. I didn't want to embarrass or offend him. I am amazed at the resemblance between Tommy Chong's character "Leo" from That 70's Show and our very own motie2.
@motie2 is just a figment of your imagination. Years ago, someone at TPL removed him, had him sterilized, and put him in a pod with other pipe smokers that look like the guy in your picture. What you are seeing now is simply a hologram that is programmed to argue with everyone
I have to admit, the very first time I saw @motie2's avatar I thought he had posted a pic of Tommy Chong. I have never mentioned it until now. The resemblance is uncanny.
Laws not taught in physics but critical to maintaining quality of life
1 . Law of Mechanical Repair
After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and you'll have to pee.
2. Law of Gravity
Any tool, nut, bolt, screw, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible place in the universe.
3. Law of Probability
The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.
4. Law of Random Numbers
If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal; someone always answers.
5. Variation Law
If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now.
6. Law of the Bath
When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone will ring.
7. Law of Close Encounters
The probability of meeting someone you know INCREASES dramatically when you are with someone you don't want to be seen with.
8. Law of the Result
When you try to prove to someone that a machine won't work, IT WILL!!!
9. Law of Biomechanics
The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.
10 . Law of the Theater & Hockey Arena
At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle, always arrive last. They are the ones who will leave their seats several times to go for food, beer, or the toilet and who leave early before the end of the performance or the game is over. The folks in the aisle seats come early, never move once, have long gangly legs or big bellies and stay to the bitter end of the performance. The aisle people also are very surly folk.
11. The Coffee Law
As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.
12. Murphy's Law of Lockers
If there are only 2 people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.
13. Law of Physical Surfaces -
The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet or rug.
14. Law of Logical Argument
Anything is possible IF you don't know what you are talking about.
15. Law of Physical Appearance
If the clothes fit, they're ugly.
16. Law of Public Speaking
-- A CLOSED MOUTH GATHERS NO FEET!
17. Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy
As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it OR the store will stop selling it!
18. Doctors' Law - If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there, you'll feel better. But don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.
I want the remedy for #11, an “Ember” coffee mug. The only problem is that I need to rob a bank, or maybe start small, a liquor store, to buy one. I have actually bought four as wedding presents for two of my nieces and their husbands. I have not received any feedback on the mugs’ quality/usefulness/performance. I did get thank you cards though🙂
So I am viewing these posts without my glasses on; I can read the text but slightly fuzzy.
I mention this because I just noticed that motie2 / Gordon has changed his icon picture and initially it looked like Alfalfa from the little rascals and after looking closer and because of the way the picture was cropped I thought he was wearing a turban.
A few years ago, I remember thinking to myself just before bouncing off the side of a semi-tractor with my Harley Road Glide….”Shit, this is gonna hurt😖”. Thankfully, it wasn’t that bad, I went home and got my Harley Sportster and road it. A year or so later after getting the Road Glide back, a peckerwood in a Buick Rendezvous pulled out in front of me. I just thought “Oh Shit, not again😳”. That one hurt more, my pickup was broken and couldn’t drive my Jeep CJ5 with the manual transmission, or ride my Sportster. I missed a couple of days of work that time.

I have one law for the work I do as an advertising ad designer. It can also apply to just about any job.
"The shorter the deadline for a rush job, the more complicated the job."
“You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think.”
Of course, I also remember hearing:
”Teenagers don’t drive cars. They aim them.”
Thankfully, it wasn’t that bad, I went home and got my Harley Sportster and road it.
A year or so later after getting the Road Glide back, a peckerwood in a Buick Rendezvous pulled out in front of me. I just thought “Oh Shit, not again😳”. That one hurt more, my pickup was broken and couldn’t drive my Jeep CJ5 with the manual transmission, or ride my Sportster. I missed a couple of days of work that time.
Well, since you obviously keep getting back on, I'd say you were born to ride...
🏍😵
OR maybe “Born to Crash”😖
I have to admit, I have not “saddled up” much since that last one.
That does not sound like fun at all!
