He's using it as an insult. Apparently the guy on the other end of the phone had ditched a fight.
We use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry and you, if I understand correctly, poke them with a sharp stick.

Ugh. Accidentally facebooked this morning. Nobody let me do that again until it's tomorrow?
Sheesh, I was up at 2:30 a.m., and a local friend (she has a baby under 1 year, so I'm not surprised that she was up) had just posted a "Never Forget" picture, but it was a picture of the towers after the first plane had hit. I immediately hid the post. I wonder if I'll have to do that all day.
"Never Forget"? Really? I don't need the visual to remember. What the hell.
On 9/11, I found out what had happened because I was dawdling going in to work and was online -- I found out from you guys (possibly Betsey?). I used to reread that thread every year on this day. I don't know about today. I probably won't.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Nova is in my lap, kneading away.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I might just watch Drag Race related videos on YouTube all day.

Yeah, I already yesterday saw a couple horrible pictures I didn't need reminding of, so am a bit scared of FB. Ain't gonna forget, but don't need remembering.

....ooh, or "How It's Made"! Always a favorite.
I've also got to get my dinner game back on track. Maybe I'll take a kielbasa out of the freezer and do that with cabbage for the week?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yep, I'm watching Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and GBBO. With maybe a sprinkling of other shows.

I'ma go paddle around a lake in a swan boat. (Or a non-swan paddleboat if all the swans are rented.)

I'm going for a run with my brother and then to an A's game. Which I just realized they'll probably have some kind of "remembrance" at. Damn it.
Having a visitor who is a restaurant professional means we've eaten out three times in two days, and we're going out again tonight. This is ... not good for me. Bleargh.

Punishingly Intricate
I'll be working for as long as I can stand and trying to figure out what to make from all the produce I got yesterday. Definitely tomatillo salsa!
