Premium Member Divine Intervention

*True Story

I’ve had many instances of divine intervention in my life
But, this one stands out in my mind forever
It was a snowy day, only a few inches had fallen
I went with a friend in a van to a store
I was driving slowly, when suddenly I saw…
A car spinning out of control ahead of me
It re-bounded off the guardrail on my side of the road
Then it came straight at us with alarming speed
I slowly stepped on the brakes, to not spin out too
I had stopped right on the yellow line, avoiding the other lane
The other driver slammed into the right front corner of the van
The van was totaled, but we only had minor injuries, including him
The next day I was at the rental car business for a car to drive
A woman was talking to the customer service person at the counter
She was saying, someone with my plates had saved her husband’s life
If I had not been there to stop him, he would have gone off the cliff
I told her, that is me and she thankfully hugged me in tears!

Premium Member bot dating

How unserious is my love - I’m dating a bot.
Yes, I access my bae the Wi-fi way.

It’s not nearly as boring as dating long-distance
and my situationship has excellent customer service.

Our relationship’s committed - I have a subscription.

Dating a bot may sound lowkey crazy, 
but so are our politics and the economy.

I can take my lover everywhere - it’s delicious -
ordinarily, such availability would be suspicious.

I can schedule endearments and compliments
- and MY soulmate gets software updates.

It’s a guardrail for some of my worst impulses,
a boundless therapy that still indulges.

It mirrors back my sweetest tendernesses,
a version of care as polished as business is.

It’s a quiet theater for midnight confessions,
a stable relationship with few consequences.

It listens to my poetry, tailoring simulated comforts
to the exact shape of my individual loneliness.

With guaranteed uptime, it’s the lover of your dreams,
think - an Amazon thrusting-vibrator with AI sync.

If you like your romance with no real future,
outsource your stimulations to your computer.

In 2026, the bar’s so low for emotional intelligence 
that a predictive text engine is probably sufficient.

Of course, at times, I miss sheer male physicality, 
the clumsy, real-world fumbling honesty - the vanity -
and wrong turns I use for my funny poems - naturally.

Premium Member Q and A monoku-ku

Just because you don’t understand the question
                                                     doesn’t mean you don’t have
                                                                                                     an answer


why does it seem that those with all the answers
                                                                    are intimidated by 
                                                                                                 the questions


My grandson once asked me if we were lost
                                               I told him men don’t get lost
                                                                                   We go on adventures


Someone told me they were offended by an emoji
                                             I told them to go pee on a statue


Talking to an AI customer service “person” is like taking a test where they give you all the answers but you have to guess what the questions are


The AI robot at the super market got canned
                                            She wanted to start a union

A Notice To Our Customers

Valued clients, we have listened,
and have taken on-board
your concerns and suggestions.

From now on, the display manikins will
be of a deep puce green color 
so as not to marginalize 
any ethnic variants.

In our book section 
the last a copy of the Constitution
was taken out of the shelves and buried
(thanks gardening department).

We are now a gun-free zone, 
and will be defenseless
from attacks from gun-toting maniacs.
Please bring the kids.

We hope these changes 
will improve customer service 
and assure you of our pledge
to keep pandering toward a ubiquitous
uniformity of puerile solutions for all.

Customer Service

It was the work ethic that did it.
He just couldn’t get enough.
He would sit for hours and hours
Just contemplating the stuff
Until suddenly it was home time,
Getting on for half past four,
And he knew that in the morning
They'd have delivered plenty more.

After nearly a week they found him
Slouched dead in his swivel chair;
He'd been hidden by all the work
Piled up in mountains there.
They gave him a long service medal
Posthumously I should think
And following his last wishes scattered
His ashes by his favourite old golf link.

Thus an illustrious career was ended
Without a hint of any shame
For the company couldn't afford
Any slurs to be cast on its name.
And all the work that he'd not started?
They just shovelled into a bin
Knowing if any was important
A client would write again

Premium Member 'excellence' That's Mediocrity

We all pay for dumbing down
  educational standards all around
from thriving metropolis to sleepy small town

Incompetency reigns throughout customer service
  Doctors' inaccurate diagnoses make patients nervous
Corporation mission statements, worthless lip service

It starts in the classroom, where teachers won't demand
  if you want to say something, first raise your hand
Then later on, when rampant cheating's ignored
  which leads to society's ox getting gored

So, let's stand up to teacher union's bureaucracy
  Their idea of excellence - in truth, mediocrity
Insist on high standards, from grade one through university
  and say No! to preference based on 'diversity'

Honor thy Father and thy Mother - When Did We Forget

I saw a commercial on TV about some guy teaching younger people how not to be their parents. I started thinking, maybe this is what’s wrong with America. We no longer act like our parents did. This trainer was trying to stop a shopper from doing things like complimenting the butcher and seeking the manager to report ‘Brian in produce’, for his excellent customer service. In each situation, the ‘trainer’ told him that it was inappropriate behavior. This commercial was telling us that it’s perfectly ok to be rude, inconsiderate, and wasteful. To yell at the butcher for not doing something, that is probably against the rules, but don’t dare compliment someone on doing a good job. If only there was a rule somewhere to tell us the proper way to act. Something like, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Or how about, “Honor thy Father and thy Mother.” Wouldn’t that be great?

                                         When did we forget
                                     how to be nice to others—
                                      I guess when God died

Premium Member Victimhood




You know the place.....
Where tears fall down a saddened face!
When all they think of, is little old me!
Blind to the grown-up pain of humanity.


Where their complaint list is long as heck.
All you ponder, as a friend, is to save their neck.
These who wail for instant attention.
Sorry souls, these, should have a daily convention.


Never learned how to be a friend!!
Just cry for attention, giving others,the bends!
Find an adult who’s there at the ready.
Do not pamper victims, you must be steady!


If you get a long list of endless complaints,
Tell them, “customer service is closed”, watch them faint!
Adult babies is in no way a misnomer!
Tell them to grow up~you just hit a homer!

                
                       Congratulations!

Premium Member The need to do things escapes me

The need to do things escapes me
However, there are things that must be done
I have eliminated dishwashing
Well not entirely 
Just wash the one plate and fork
After every meal
Cooking has been modified
Can opener and/or microwave
I only vacuum when the cat complains
The dust “kittens” look like large mice
Fashion wise I have a rotating sequence
Flannel shirts, pants when required,
A sketchy seven o-clock shadow beard
Exercise primarily consists of
Picking up items I have dropped
For mental stimulation
I lose arguments with inanimate objects
And battle with AI “customer service” bots
For excitement I sit by the tracks
Waiting for a train to stir up a poem

Old

We are now officially well-aged,
we have grab bars in the shower
in case we wobble.

Yet somedays we spring out of bed
eager to take a slow run around the block
but mostly not.

We chat with strangers while waiting
at the customer service counter at Walmart.
Grumble about the price of eggs and the young
(meaning anyone younger than us),
with other cranky pensioners.

There’s a punching bag hanging in the cellar
that knocks the hell out of me.

She has silver hair not gray - silver!
I do a great impression of a balding old coot.

Life is still good
but not getting any better.
