Now I'm a dead man walking walking walking
I hear the angels talking talking talking
Now I'm a dead man
I see you standing there but you're already gone
I'm holding your hand but you're barely holding on
I'm kissing your lips but it just don't feel the same
Am I dead there now, left living with the blame
Oh I hear the angels talking talking talking
Now I'm a dead man walking walking walking
Already broken, already gone
Already know you're moving on
I'm a breathing, talking
Dead man, walking
Already see it, in your face
Already someone, in my place
I'm a breathing, talking
Dead man, walking
I hear the angels talking talking talking
Now I'm a dead man walking walking walking
I hear the angels talking talking talking
Now I'm a dead man

What rhymes with Orange Jello?
That guy should have been out of there a long time ago.
Personally compromised in Hillary emails.

Let's photoshop him.
His face is really a monarch butterfly that flutters off leaving a branch wearing a great tie.
He has the best ties in Congress.
Daring. Daring as wearing spray-on Oompah-Loompah International orangoutang orange colored skin in public. I don't even know what laughingstock is. *looks up laughingstock* yeah, yeah, but why, [laughingstock etymology]
'something solid that things can be fixed to', that is, a butt or stump. So, 'laughing-stock' is just the same as 'the butt of the joke'.
But not laughing stump. And what is a butt that has things fixed to it? What are we building a treehouse or hitching a horse or what? Sometimes the answers raise as much questioning as they answer. You can always rely on a stump for something sturdy to fix things to? What is this stock like a stump that has thing fixed to it?
This is not helpful.
I know a guy named Yagee who fixed a house to a rock at the top of a mountain. It was hit by lightning and burned. So he built it again. Bigger the second time and with an altogether MUCH taller lightning rod. You see, that rock was his stock.
I'm trying to get this stock, stump, butt thing to fit and it's not working.
They spend more time describing what it isn't, the punishment stocks, and that's what other etymology places say it is. What we have here is a dispute.
formed by analogy with whipping-stock "whipping post," later also "object of frequent whipping" (but that word is not attested in writing in this sense until 1670s). See laughing + stock. Compare gaping-stock "person or thing regarded as an object of wonder."
Well, seems like I'll just have to make up my own reason. Here goes. It's the same sense as "stock and trade" you can always rely on having some on hand, he's the herd of cattle with the funny horn, he's the thin but substantial soup made of bone marrow and nitrous oxide that makes you laugh.
I like gaping-stock. It's one of those things that is so perfect that it's instantly incorporated into working vocabulary available for use any time but one hundred percent neglected and never once actually used even though it resides right there available because if it WAS ever used that would assure self-isolation even permanent estrangement unless you dropped your jaw far as it goes when you said it and bulge out your eyes in comical expression of stupefied wonder at an imaginary sight of something unbelievable hitched like a horse to a post. That would allow use of the excellent expression while avoiding self-isolation.
A photoshop would be great!
Mark Meadows is my Congressman. Love the guy. Of all the assholes in Congress, I'd toss Boehner if I could toss one.
Boehner is a boner.

Everyone loves their own congressmen, but it's all the other ones that are bad. And we wonder why these motherfucking spineless golden kneepad cocksuckers are still doing nothing except enriching themselves on your hard-earned labor.
I just heard Kerry, at State, telling Europe to have no fear, America will take up the slack on the Syrians Europe can't handle. Okay, I might be wrong but couldn't a genuine opposition party holding both Houses of Congress say "Wait a minute, Congress will have to debate the issue and then vote approval or disapproval on admitting your muslim horde?"
