All Hat, No Cuddle

“Dang, some people sure is touchy about their farm equipment. I was just down at the feed store, talking to Matty Dunnigan, and I says that the John Deere S550 series personal tractor ain’t nothing but a wind-up toy for mama’s boys and city slickers, and some yokel gets huffy and pulls my hat down over my head! Gettin’ so a fella can’t express an opinion no more.”

Via Imgur. (“The vet said the anti-scratch cone would be $50.00. Tractor Supply had it for $19.95.”)

    Smart dog. Knows that the only reasonable green tractors are the old Olivers!

      I’m an orange (AC) tractor fan myself (thanks to my Grandpa, Dad, and Uncle), but anything is better than the ubiquitous John Deere green.

        Orange could also be an old Minneapolis-Moline or Case!!

          Lordy be, I love it when you talk farm machinery! It’s something completely beyond my ken so once again I find myself in the company of amazing people. I love this place.

          Just got to thinking, this could be a country version of one of those after surgery anti-scritch funnels.

    As heard when watching a certain Bruce Willis film on TV :

    Yippie-Kai-Yay, Motherlover!

      LOL, my very favorite edited-for-TV swear is in the movie “Fallen,” where the dying villain’s last words are rendered as “Forget you, my friend!” 😀

    I listen to a Podcaster who uses the phrase Sunday go to meetin’. This one made me laugh out loud. ?

    On a side note, I do not seem to have received notifications for the most recent new posts…?

      Uh-oh, I’m still getting subscriptions. Maybe you need to use the subscription form in the sidebar again.

        Somehow the email address they come from got marked as spam. I reported it as not spam and added it to my contacts.

        I just got a new computer and picked it up from my tech guy (aka Dad) last night; I’m finding the track pad a little difficult to control. I must have accidentally hit the spam button instead of delete (I had a whole bunch of replies from several threads in there, all from last night and today).

    That’s really quite fashionable.

    NTMTOM, it’s that ongoing party in your head that we are so lucky to have been invited to. Wow. All hat, no cuddle indeed!?

    Hey everybody, I am considering making a change to the site, and I’d like your opinions about it. Because I only want to hear from regular commenters at first, I’m announcing this here rather than in a blog post. Please take a look at this page and give me your thoughts. Thank you.

    Country ingenuity.

    So they pulled down his hat. But what happened to his pants?
