Greetings and Salutations!
To all those who’ve asked, Gretchen is doing well post-surgery.
Of course she’s milking the whole “I just had surgery thing” to the max. The nice thing is the way the doc inserted the ‘bubble’ for her eyeball, it seems that the best way for her to be is straight upright, which saves on having her face-down non-stop for the next two weeks. It also allows her some mobility, and her sleeping is done via wrapping her up in pillows, upright.
Works for me.
Of course her right eye is currently is “Hellraiser” mode.
Scary looking AF.
It’s a good thing that Red isn’t here currently to see this ‘cos it’s enough to give ME the heeby-jeebies. I can SEE how they cut on her… think “Event Horizon” sort of surgery… Ugh!
And I’ve seen some horrific stuff over the years… Even the words “Eyeball” and “Surgery” are two that in my book should never be put together… stuff that nightmare fuel is made of.
Now a quick note: I have to give my man Borepatch some props. He made 17 years in the blogosphere the other day, which is impressive as all get-out. Far too many people like JL pack it in early, or others who like Mike Vanderboegh of the “Sipsey Street Irregulars” blog, who unfortunately ‘die in the saddle’ so to speak. Another one who passed FAR too early, who was the inspiration of this blog, Bob Owens of “Confederate Yankee” who was a GREAT friend and the guy who actually got me started in blogging WAAAAAY back in the day.
Requiescat in Pace, my fren… you will be avenged.
I’ve personally never bought in that Bob “aced himself out”.
It was waaaaay to convenient. Bob was the guy who busted open the entire “Baghdad Diarist” Bullshit Story back in the day, with me being his on-the-ground in-person witness and gopher. His expose pretty much fried the editor at the time of the New Republic, Franklin Foer… We got to be frens from that, and as he grew as a major 2nd Amendment Rights advocate, I always found his quote “Suicide” unquote to be BEYOND sus.
Just another casualty of the truth…
Anyways
Tonight’s rant while I’m in between taking care of Gretchen, the dogs, the cats, the garbage and dinner is about Wasson Watches. Now by no means do I have a dog in the hunt per se.
HOWEVER
Wasson Watches, which is/WAS a right wing ‘based’ watch selling company just committed “Brand Suicide” over the “Jewish Question”.
I.E. In their opinion, anyone who questions Israel, the Jews, the Holocaust or Gaza is a Nazi who needs to have their head bashed in. Unfortunately, I didn’t grab a screenshot of it, but OMG… for a ‘supposed Christian’ former Infantryman, this guy is out of fucking control for his absolutism when it comes to the Izzies.
Case in point: Dissident Soaps: They happened to make a couple of comments on Wasson Watch’s twitter account… calling them out for the extreme support of what any normal person would…. i.e. the incessant bombing/killing of unarmed Palestinian civilians…
Now me being me? I’ll tell your right off the bat:
I think what’s going on there is a crime against humanity. My fellow bloggers can roast me all day long, but I grew up with a Palestinian ‘older brother’ if you will… one of DeadDad’s students who moved in for about a year at the house, and I learned a LOT about the Infitada, and about Islam in general. I had a VAST exposure to BOTH sides and I CAN NOT allow nor ignore the deaths of children…. I don’t care who’s side you’re on… If the Palestinians attacked little kids, I’ll condemn them and rightfully so… and when I see lil baby-kids sitting either by their dead parents, or blown up in an airstrike, well then fuck them fuckers dropping the bombs…
Side rant complete.
So anyways… Dissident soaps Poasted the following after some serious foreskin sucking by Wasson Watches:
Funny right?
Lord knows the Mel Gibson Meme of the same lettering?
That was mine… about 3-4 years ago.
If I had a dollar for every time someone poasted it….
Anyways to continue…
DS (Dissident Soaps) pulled the meme shortly after as -someone- from Wasson Watches complained about a potential copyright violation.
BUT
That wasn’t enough
Nope.
The foreskin-suckers COMPLETELY doubled down:
Yep.
They doxxed the fuck out of the owner of Dissident Soaps
Not that it wasn’t public info.
HOWEVER!!!
The public backlash is/has/has been INSANE.
First off, there were some assholes who made some memes that completely mis-read the fucking audience:
Specifically, some asshole made this:
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah
The overall reaction was “Where/When can I buy this!?!”
I even said it needed to be a T-Shirt.
Other Memes Quickly Followed:
and then:
as well as this:
and:
and lastly:
Now mind you, This is a SAMPLING of what I found…
The amount of sheer destruction of the brand is something for the ages… this’s even worse than Black Rifle Coffee stepping on their cocks when they decided to shit on and disavow Kyle Rittenhouse… and yes, interestingly enough, the CEO of Black Rifle Faggotry is a Jew. Go figure.
If BRC had ‘stepped up’ and backed Rittenhouse INSTEAD of going the OTHER way, they’d STILL be at $24.45 or a share on the NYSE or HIGHER, as opposed to the current $1.24. So yeah, Fuck those guys… seriously.
So Wasson Watches, AFTER doxxing the owner of Dissident Soaps, kept it up…
For a while.
Until as they say, “turnabout is fair play” and people doxxed the fuck out of the guy who owns and runs Wasson Watches. And add on that Musk actually shut down Wasson’s Twitter account for a couple of days, well… it doesn’t look good for the guy.
Add on that EVERYONE… from ‘normies’ to ‘right wingers’ have jumped on board? I mean sheeeeeeeeeeeee-it…………
NOBODY like a narc.
So I give it about 30/45 days before Was-son Was-Watches are out of biddness… I mean when you have normie articles out of the Wall Street Journal calling out Twitter Battle and your own e self destruction of your own brand?
Yeeeeeeeeeeeah… you’re dead…
You just need to get instructions on just -where- to lay down.
‘Cos you’re a fucking corpse.
“Dead Man Walking!” Aye?
But anyways… I’m glad some of y’all enjoyed Karl’s post. I’m grateful he stepped in, and I’ll see about having others come onboard in the future as guests. I invited JL (the “Bitter Centurion”) but he unfortunately declined…. (Dude… note to you: Your input and thoughts are missed you Canuk Cockfag!)
So let me know in the comments
More Later

JL! Surely you can squeeze out some words wisdom or interest.
Your fan, Tree Mike
Glad to hear about the bonus medical situation with the Glamazon (my 5’4″ wife LOVES than title). Eyes are the fastest healing things in our bodies, so they heal and the “looks” will go away quick enough.
Oh yeah, phuque Black Rifle Coffee!
The scofield bible is the most cost effective lie a jew ever told. The fallout from that luciferian plot is still falling. As the meme says, “what part of synagogue of satan did you not understand?” I am going to calm myself by reading Romans again.
But to Israel he says:
“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”

It is fucking stupid for ANY business to wade into political shit because you will piss off a chunk of your customers and cost you $$.
It is BEYOND stupid if like Black Rifle Coffee the vast majority of your customers are veterans and those on the right side of the spectrum and you start spouting Left Wing BS. Those dumbasses will be filing BK soon and screw them !
Thanks, BC. I never heard of Wasson Watches before your post, but now I know to despise the fuckers. Not sure if they are before or after Ted Cruz on The List though. Christ, I finally listened to a bit of Cruz’s Tucker interview. Only lasted 3 minutes (yeah yeah “that’s what she said hur hur hur”) before I had to shut off the feed.
As to BRCC: on a business trip. We wanted coffee and breakfast at the convention center but the only thing open was a Starbucks. “I’m not giving any money to Starbucks.”
“I don’t like them either, but I’m hungry. Look, I’ll buy you breakfast. I don’t want you going hungry.”
“Thanks, but I won’t drink their burnt swill anyway. Only thing worse is Black Rifle.”
Then I had to explain BRCC and Evan Hafer. I mean, the hell with Howard Schultz (and yes, of course he’s one too), but to my knowledge, he never pretended to be one of us. Hafer? Fuck that guy.
BRO–
The smarter half in this casa had a small tumor wrapped around her optic nerve.
The doc whose hands were literally the size of my palms removed her eye-ball and CAREFULLY peeled that sucker off the nerve, back well past the socket.
Since the Bride is also the artsy-fartsy one here, we were concerned as to just how much of her vision would come back (we knew about the issue, e agreed to wait until her vision SERIOUSLY changed and one Friday she called and said, “Uhm, it’s gone.” She hit the chair Tuesday, and then we sweated how much vision she’d have.
A week later she came downstairs and REJOICED with me that her colors were back and the next day, we got the best news available: It WAS NOT a cancerous growth!!!
May you and your Bride heal as fast as RELIC did!

My friend gave me a handful of BRC pods. Despite my annoyance at the company for their shabby treatment of Rittenhouse, I gave it a try just to please my friend. It’s really kind of mediocre, in my opinion. Looked up those watches…nothing special, though apparently they dropped the price by $150, I wonder why.
Any trashbag who markets their mediocre shit based on politics and not quality can suck an unwashed corpse’s hog, IMO. It’s tribalism at best, only their tribe is gay and forgettable.
Come but my watch! It’s not as reliable as a Casio, and I have a 1200% profit on margin ‘cus its made in Chy-nuh by 6 year olds but muh politics!
Come by my coffee! It’s coffee! It comes in a package! I do stuff and stop at yard sales!
I was a lobsterman when I lived in MA as a yoot. I didn’t market my lobsters by talking about my GOP membership at the time. It was ‘Hey, you want some fuckin’ lobsters? I got 600 pots out there in the hahbah. They’re wicked fresh.’
Too many Goddamned people watching Shark Tank.
Hi Billy!!,
First off…. My Best Wishes on Gretchen’s recovery!!!!!
As for the “I&I Fiasco!!!!” Bubba, as we both know….. “War is HE2xL!!!!” No if’s, and’s or Butts!!!
We both Been there, done that!!!!!
Ya’ mention my buddy “Borepatch” doing the years and Mike Vanderboegh of “Sipsey street!!” ‘Had the good fortune to become friends with Mike and met with him several times!!!! Great Guy!!! As you said,”Taken too early!!!” I always wonder what he’d have to say bout today’s Schenegans????
Anyway, my whiskey glass is gettin’ a bit sparse and I need to go for a mid air refuel…. Jim Beam is waiting!!
Audentes, Fortuns, Iuvat!!!!,

It is very clear that nearly everyone in Conservative inc and Politics still thinks it is the late 90s or early 00s with regards to the sandbox and Israeli nonsense.
Everyone is done with the unwinnable conflicts and millennia old dudes that that area represents.
We spent two generations of soldiers and trillions if dollars for what?
The arguments and manipulations are always the same and it is tiresome. Add to that the demographic destruction we have had to endure and the constant abuse from our “betters”.
They think we are stupid and that the press has the same power, but the noticing has accelerated and the lies are revealed before they can really be effective (though the still work for those who want them to).
The American people are war weary, abuse weary, and far more cynical than they were even 4 years ago and they are done.
The D candidate in NYC just reinforces all of the above.
I am also done with the pandering. Wasson was just flagrant about it. BRCC was at least funny before they misread the room.
Good News on the Glamazon 🙂
Keep a kind but tight leash on her please. So many disrupt the heal process by doing “just a bit more” than the Dr. Ordered.
Heal up BOTH of you. The caregiver MUST take care of themselves or become a casualty.
In my house we have a saying “ONE Patient at a time”.
If you ever get an urge to cleanup a cap and ball revolver or a BP shotgun that I can use in our biweekly Cowboy action shooting let me know. A dab of bling like Big Country was here would be a fun point of discussion at the shoot. Cowboy action shooting, where the targets are moving and the hostage scenario is common.
“One patient at a time.” Damn!! We SHOULD have thought of that! Oh well, misery gets company…or sumptin.
May I suggest that Wasson may want to apply their expertise in the design and manufacture of timepieces to a related product line, for which I expect there will be a growing demand: oven timers.
That is all.
Is this the post ya’ll are talking about?

or did I miss something?
The Menorah-W logo in the first meme is priceless. He could have used only that and it might have flown under the radar for a while.
Does DS doe “Face Toward Enemy” soap bars?
Thanks for the shout out, bro. Almost gave up on it 10 years back, but the monkey is pretty firmly on my back …
And I didn’t know that you were “boots on the ground” with that Franklin Foer asshole. Very cool.
Best wishes to Gretchen. Pretty scary stuff. Mom had that way back in the day but didn’t have to go through what Gretchen has.
