oh, if i could take a red pen to this crap, WHAT i wouldn’t do….
or maybe it’s a parallel universe where homonyms are all loosey-goosey. whichever, there’s no excuse for skink-ing anybody or anything at anytime. it’s just bad manners.

The amazing thing, #1, is that it really is a word:

Just not, you know, a VERB is all.

A skink is not the same as a skank. A skink is a lizard. Does she let her skink chew on it to size down those nice, personable photos? I think I’m having an aneurysm.

I give her points for having manicured nails in the pics. I take away points for the nails not being all similar length. I am not sure if I should add or take away points for her index finger having a checkered pattern or not.

Regardless – I am going to attempt to use the word “skink” in a conversation at some point today.

Three random NASCAR facts:
1. There was a driver named Dick Trickle. True fact.
2. My husband and I used to live in the midwest, slept through races on tv and coined the term “NAPSCAR”.
3. An oft used phrase by NASCAR commentators:
“It’s just one of them deals.”

Classy! it’s Italian, you know

I’m not sure exactly what skinking is, but i’m reasonably sure that it’s no way to treat an innocent reptile, and it’s almost definitely non consensual.

i will never understand the appeal of NASCAR. it seems to me you could get the same effect by getting really high and standing on an overpass. it’d be cheaper too

Urban dictionary tells me that skinking is… “how a cat prowls around the house. It especially describes how smaller, more lithe cats behave.”

Personally, it looks to me like skinking is gluing small pieces of square paper to metal.

I looked through her shop. It looks like the dollar store exploded in there.

I am puzzled as to the lack of cars on her NASCAR bracelets. She went to all that trouble to find the sponsors logos and rip them off, couldn’t she get a picture of the actual car?

“Well I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.”

Reality trumps whimsicle snarking. I grew up in St. Louis, & my friend Tom used to take his lizard for a walk down the street. However, the lizard was a 6 foot iguana & the street was not Skinker. The iguana was also potty trained – I have pictures.
