"Suitable for transporting a bull" would be a pretty niche type of vehicle.
We've had some outfit named "Zip Recruiter" (or something very close) doing a lot of radio ads lately.
I have a grandson who recently entered the age of chatty mimicry. Last week we were going somewhere together and a commercial came on, kid started spouting "zippycooter" and the parents laughed. I warned them, but I think they imagined I was worried about the poor kid's psyche.
I heard from my daughter in law that they are afraid to take him to the grocery store right now. It seems that when he sees anyone he's likely to shout "zippycooter, zippycooter!"
Parents learn a lot on that first kid. Like not to encourage them unintentionally. Actually in parenting it is probably best to be as "intentional" as you can.
Why is saying zippycooter a problem.Quote:

Perhaps it is a regional thing. We've had a lot of people move here from the south since Civil War days.
I've got relatives in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana. Never heard the term zippycooter. lolQuote:

I was wondering if that was the problem. But I've heard it used as a name more than anything else. But the list of possible bad word is pretty long.Quote:

I keep running into things that are moved if not outright hidden, removed, or badly broken. I was tolerant of Windows 10 and it's my daily driver, but 11 seems to be a horse of a very different color. I've been at this for several months and I am no closer to making the switch.
Oh, the humanity!
Hehe, you said "balls" :bigyello:Quote:

Got a new keyboard. lol
I need to do that.
My main keyboard was pretty solid, but it doesn't have double-shot keycaps and the paint is worn nearly off some keys. The shift keys have also become less than reliable.
I'm sure I have others brand new in a box here somewhere. I tend to use old ones I am used to for their multimedia buttons and such.
The last thing I need is one of those "dolly keyboards" with the colored lights under the keys. But then I wasn't born in a Chuck E. Cheese ball pit either.
Huh. Viewer discretion advised:

Pretty gross. Nothing really awful shown, it's just a story. Probably a dramatization of an urban legend.
What’s ET short for?
Because he’s only got tiny legs.

My neighbor called me pretentious.
I was so surprised my monocle fell out!
