The next Post Of The Week will be announced on Sunday evening.
Please note that nominations for next week cannot be accepted until then.

1. Boobs, Injuries and Dr. Pepper- Shock Therapy-
Nominated by Peach.

He put the collar on Dusty and took the leash off. Dusty immediately ran full-tilt-boogie across the yard and when he reached the perimeter, I literally saw a blue flash and the fat little shit did a complete back-flip.

2. .Don’t Call me Joe-Differences.
Nominated by asta.

You take another bite of the fish and wonder if cuisine is a good enough reason to stay with someone. Possibly not if between mouthfuls you are trying to decide which the more attractive option is: jamming the fork into your own arm or into his.

3. Little Red Boat-Photo Phursday: Never been horsey. Never.
Nominated by bob.

I was scared, because they are large, and powerful, and have enormous teeth, and could kill you without a second’s thought. They are scarier even than cows, and cows, as we all know, are hellascary. They are not as scary as mice, but then nothing is.

4. May Contain Notts-10 Reasons Why Nobbing Off the Night Bus Service Is Another Stupid Idea by whatever Greedy Mingebag Lead Paint-Licking Gibbons Run this Town.
Nominated by Mike.

For many people, it was the last opportunity to get your end away before the night was over (because, c’mon - if you’ve pulled in town, you’re never going to take them home on the fucking Night Bus. You might as well tell them that they’ve got to be quiet when they get there, so as not to wake your Mam up).

5. Mommy Has a Headache-I am Belle de Jour
Nominated by Peach.

Another problem with Madame Giselle was that she couldn’t see a thing without her glasses. Now, I’m not going to be prejudiced and say a blind person shouldn’t be working with whips and nipple clamps and hot wax in a near dark environment. All I’m saying is that I can’t imagine it was easy, and that it probably added an unnecessary level of strain to her already perilous sense of sanity.

6. Neil writes the Blog-Billy’s Boots
Nominated by Gordon.

Journeys across the pitch which used to be measured in minutes now seemed to take mere seconds and such was the constant speed and associated wind-rush generated that I had real trouble trying to light my mid-game cigarette.

7. Walking Data Loss- Brothers or Sisters
Nominated by Stray.

Characters in drama series and sitcoms exacerbate awkward or uncertain situations by avoiding communicating directly with a particular person (or several people), especially when frank communication with that person (or those people) would undoubtedly resolve all of their anxiety and/or uncertainty. (This is known as Frasier’s Law.)
