@jimmyd103 There aren’t any aliens on the ISS. And they can’t see anything from their base on the far side of the moon. Besides, they’re already here and living among us.
On the plus side it fits you. Reserve wearing it until you are in a white out and then you will be seen instead of blending in. Or during the hunting season if you are in the woods. Seriously though if you live where there is nasty winter this would be a coat you could put in the car for emergency use. And if it gets stolen out of there you wouldn’t be as upset. I have a bright orange (yuck; the inside is gray and I am tempted to use it inside out) North Face sleeping bag I bought at a remainder place for $25 that I keep in the car for just that purpose. Actually if you live up north enough selling it to hunters would probably get you a decent price.
@theycallmemrmoo Well, it’s better than trying to write poetry about oranges like my friend was trying to do. He yelled: “What rhymes with orange?” And I yelled back: “No, it doesn’t!”
It is well known that phones are cooler/blue color biased because it stimulates our retinas more to trigger attention and responses. The two things advertisers are paying for - your eyeballs and attention.
It is not a coincidence we are subliminally “drawn” to these devices. Doomscrolling is the intended behavior training.
@Kyeh@OnionSoup i noticed the jacket being red immediately, then i saw the cones and thought “they look orange.”. Looking again now i agree w OnionSoup that they are not as orange as an IRL traffic cone, but orange compared to the red jacket.
I liked the blue tint comment, @mike808, that made sense. Of course i understand so little about tech or photography, you could have said it had something to do with the rajahelix filter and i probably would have nodded.
@Kidsandliz@mike808 that was just pith poor! And hey…even though we have a plague of shite citrus jokes, at least we don’t have to worry about getting the scurvy!
@carl669@f00l I don’t know about OrangeQuarterly but I’m pretty positive we know that MehQuarterly has little to no standards. Besides you’re the Orange Coat Goat. That seems obligatory for a cover… now I’m going to have to make you a magnet when I get back to Portland!
@sillyheathen, as evidenced by a forthcoming magnet, has bestowed upon me the title of Orange Coat Goat. please add this to the list of honors under my username.
Are you CITR(i)US?? I can’t believe i MIST this the THIRST time a-ROUND! I’m BITTER and CRUSHed. Ok, I’ll end this MINNEOLA tantrum before I FAYGO off on a BIZZARIA TANGELO & really embarrass myself! Yep, too late. I sincerely apologize. And/or you’re welcome. Please don’t be BITTER, I don’t want any bad BLOOD amongst us. Somebody SLICE the mic!! PIECE out!
@Thumperchick just need to get some reflective tape and i’ll have my next halloween costume.
@carl669 @Thumperchick
Please post pictures of that when you do!!!
So freaking orange.
I love it.
I am fucking overwhelmed. Stick a fern on your head and you’ll be a carrot.
@OldCatLady if only i had a fern

Orange you glad it fits properly?
@Koolhandjoe i believe i heard the world do a collective facepalm just now.
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe
Based on the color I’m guessing the label is written in mandarin?
Orange dad jokes for days…actually more like minutes.
@sillyheathen I appeel to your humanity, sir!
@mike808 citrus got real but the zest is yet to come because I can’t concentrate! Also it’s ladypants!
@carl669 I feel roadwork construction zone vibes
@cbooboo2
More like court-ordered supervised Community Service vibes.
@kdemo Phoebe would love this jacket! Just look at hers!
@RiotDemon - She saw her own reflection.
That is one fucktacularly orange jacket, @carl669.
@mike808 That might be my new favorite word…
On the bright side, you are now an easy target for alien visitors. Easily visible from the International Space Station.
@jimmyd103 There aren’t any aliens on the ISS. And they can’t see anything from their base on the far side of the moon. Besides, they’re already here and living among us.
@mike808 how did you know?
@jimmyd103 @mike808 Maybe because he is one???
@jimmyd103 -
Brilliant!
@kdemo well played…
@jimmyd103 @kdemo
How could you not see that (jacket) coming?
On the plus side it fits you. Reserve wearing it until you are in a white out and then you will be seen instead of blending in. Or during the hunting season if you are in the woods.

@Kidsandliz No, no - don’t sell it, I want to see the Halloween traffic cone!
I love the shoulder pads.
That gave me a good laugh. Both the fact that it was in an IRK and the way it was presented. Traffic cone is a great idea.
I feel the orange puns are really getting juiced
@theycallmemrmoo So then like the knock knock joke, “orange you glad I didn’t say banana?”. I would imagine bananas don’t juice well.
@theycallmemrmoo Well, it’s better than trying to write poetry about oranges like my friend was trying to do. He yelled: “What rhymes with orange?” And I yelled back: “No, it doesn’t!”
@theycallmemrmoo @rockblossom @Kidsandliz
I’m sure the folks here will squeeze out a few more.
@mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo
Probably because now this sub thread set of posts got everyone’s creative juices running.
@Kidsandliz @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo
That was kind of seedy to reuse the same pun as the OP.
@Kidsandliz @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo Bob Dylan would love that jacket. After all, he did write Mr. Tangerine Man.
@Kidsandliz @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken
The extended middle fingers for the photo were a particularly zesty move, @carl669.
@Kidsandliz @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken
i feel like we’re just going rind in circles with these puns now.
@carl669 @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken Yeah at this point I think we are just punting the ball back and forth.
@carl669 Then there’s the guy who lost his job at the orange juice factory. He just couldn’t concentrate.
@carl669 @rockblossom
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
I’m sure we can wedge a few more puns in here.
I should write these puns down on paper first because they’re tearable.
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
Well, @Koolhandjoe started it, so he’s the most pulpable.
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974 I think we need some kind of orangement here… no more pulpy puns no matter how apeeling or orangeinal they might be…
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974 We will C if others agree that @Koolhandjoe’s response a healthy one.
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
Ok now I am done
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
But Koolhandjoe, I found one more perfectly suited to you!
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
We don’t need an orangement on where to put bad puns. They already have their own section – right here! Orange you glad now?
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974 Mike the trouble is putting them here is that this neighborhood is pretty seedy, being meh and all.
@Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
they could re-orange all the threads to put the puns at the top. str-oranger things have been done in the past.
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @mike808 @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
Heh. All of these made-up stories about oranges! It’s just pulp fiction.
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Kyeh @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974 I was telling my son about these orange puns… I said “Sunny -D’s orange jokes are getting bad”… even at their Florida Best
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @mike808 @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
I can’t believe this hasn’t showed up yet:
@carl669 @Kidsandliz @Koolhandjoe @Kyeh @rockblossom @theycallmemrmoo @ThunderChicken @tinamarie1974
Orange you glad I didn’t post the 10-hour version of that Annoying Orange video? (Yes, it exists. No, I won’t help you find it.)
I will post this 10-hour video of a solid orange screen to play as a desktop backgroud.
Does the jacket look red in the picture to anyone else? Or is that just me?
@mollama It is on the red side on my Nokia.
It is well known that phones are cooler/blue color biased because it stimulates our retinas more to trigger attention and responses. The two things advertisers are paying for - your eyeballs and attention.
It is not a coincidence we are subliminally “drawn” to these devices. Doomscrolling is the intended behavior training.
Huh… Looks red on my phone. Must be my screen.
@OnionSoup @mollama
Do the traffic cones look red too?
@Kyeh @mollama a little… They look slightly orange. Not like traffic cone orange. So must be my phone. Never noticed this before.
@mollama @OnionSoup Interesting!
@Kyeh @OnionSoup i noticed the jacket being red immediately, then i saw the cones and thought “they look orange.”. Looking again now i agree w OnionSoup that they are not as orange as an IRL traffic cone, but orange compared to the red jacket.

This thread is so segmented!
@sillyheathen What? You expect us to stay on topic? HAHAHAHAHA (grin)
@Kidsandliz @sillyheathen
/giphy squirrel
@Kidsandliz oh hell no. I was making another crappy citrus joke.
@Kidsandliz @sillyheathen
You say that as if we haven’t already beaten the bad citrus puns to a pulp.
@Kidsandliz @mike808 that was just pith poor! And hey…even though we have a plague of shite citrus jokes, at least we don’t have to worry about getting the scurvy!
@Kidsandliz @sillyheathen
At least scurvy isn’t Buggery on the High Seas.
@Kidsandliz @mike808 don’t knock it till ya try it!
Orange’t you going to model us more “third finger salute” poses?
@f00l i’m saving the model poses for the next issue of GQ
@carl669 @f00l GQ or OQ? Or MQ?
@f00l @sillyheathen i haven’t been approached to model for OQ or MQ. it’s like they have fucking standards or something.
@carl669 @f00l I don’t know about OrangeQuarterly but I’m pretty positive we know that MehQuarterly has little to no standards. Besides you’re the Orange Coat Goat. That seems obligatory for a cover… now I’m going to have to make you a magnet when I get back to Portland!
Dear meh,
@sillyheathen, as evidenced by a forthcoming magnet, has bestowed upon me the title of Orange Coat Goat. please add this to the list of honors under my username.
sincerely,
Orange Coat Goat
(seriously - i love the thought of a magnet, but do not feel obliged to actually make one)
@carl669 @sillyheathen
@carl669 @Koolhandjoe ugh! I so need Inkscape on my phone! There shall be imminent manipulation of graphics once I get to my laptop!
@carl669 oh the magnet is happening. It’s in my head so I gotta get it out and only way to do that is to make the thing. It is the way.
@sillyheathen in that case, it will be displayed in all its orangey glory!
wow, such orange. much reveling.
Don’t go hunting with Dick Cheney…
Saw this holiday gift idea for the SO.
Or even better, get one for yourself.
