I've discovered low-carb granola!!!!

Now, instead of gross-ass protien bars for breakfast every morning (I eat at my desk, eggs are sorta out of the question) I have nummy nummy Flax Snacks granola with half and half.

Not entertaining, but it makes me happy.

The bartender points to a sign that says "No Strings Served Here" and refuses to serve the string. Which is all wrongheaded and all because there is nothing wrong with being a string. Well, cosmic strings are just weird but this is a regular string in the joke so no advanced physics here.

Um, anyhoo, the string leaves the bar...

Outside the string takes a bite of it's low-carb granola bar and thinks. Then, it decides on a disguise. The string ties a knot into itself and and frays the ends of itself into a mess of tiny strands. Yeah, it's a lot to go through, but strings really like their tequila.

The string stalks off back into the bar...

This is the frayed knot joke, isn't it? It has a prominent place in "Homicide: A year on The Killing Streets" A cop who was shot and blinded in the line of duty makes several attempts at telling it to his old squadmates. He was absolutely Lucky To Be There, okay? Had to learn to talk again and stuff. But still, when he got to the punchline they still said: "Even for a blind guy, that joke sucked." Somehow, I love them for that.

Oof. To complete the girly medical experience, I had a mammogram this morning. I cannot imagine how women with itty bitty tits get enough into the machine for an effective reading. It's definitely a chocolate morning.

Hey, i'm still telling the joke here! Jeez.

... The string goes up the bartender and orders a shot of tequila again. The bartender looks at it for a minute and asks, "Hey aren't you the same string that just came in here a minute ago?"

The string replies, "Nope, I'm a frayed knot."

Bwah!

I think it's cute. Of course, I don't have detective-grade levels of ball-breaking experience. It's also in "Motherless Brooklyn" but that version is kinda endless because that character has Tourette's.

Hey, i'm still telling the joke here! Jeez.

Hey, good comedians can deal with interruptions.

Yeah. That's where you tell me you don't stand over my shoulder and tell me what word to type, or something.
