Also is it pulling the cord or pulling the chord?

The last one makes the least sense to me! The first one would be more sensical since it may have to do with parachutes...

Cutting the cord, or pulling the plug.

It would be substantially more damaging in that situation to pull the cord... which makes the idiom better!

Just imagine...

You're standing at the delivery table, your wife is lying there with her legs spread, delivering a 7 pound baby, and after the deed you just yank the cord as hard as possible.

The resulting outcome of that single action would be a pretty apt description of what I am considering doing.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

The cord connects to the placenta, not the uterus so you're ok. The worrying bit is that the other end is connected to babby, and by extension babby's circulatory system, which is where yanking would not be a good idea.

I have a rifle and a frying pan and I know how to use them
My family does the holiday season get together thing on non-holiday weekends. It’s easier for everyone to get tickets, travel is nowhere near as crowded, and you can jam Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, and about 4 or 5 at last count family birthdays all in one neat and easy to survive weekend.

I was at the in-laws with a poo poo-ton of other people a few weeks ago. Since I can’t stand the mother-in-law for any significant amount of time, the wife and I went to the local outlet mall. She gravitated to clothing stores and since I hate that poo poo, I went to the various kitchen stores. I wasn’t on the hunt for anything in particular, but ended up finding a nice cast iron comal. Tortillas ahoy! Better than the frying pan I’d been using in the past. Easier to use with the low sides.
I’m working my way past the various “as seen on TV” stuff as well as the entire walls of Food Network celeb branded cookware. Nothing especially exciting and most of it is mid-grade cookware at best. Eh, what do you really expect from something with Rachel Ray or Paula Dean stamped on the side.

Then I came across the Guy Fieri products. Holy poo poo. From afar, they looked all flashy and overly gaudy with the tattoo-esque decorations and odd color choices. Then I got close and saw the product quality. The knives were super-thin stamped blade pieces of junk. The cookware was the worst quality paper-thin aluminum with plastic handles. The kind you may have remembered from the 70’s and 80’s with the single Phillips head screw holding the handle to the pan, those pans. The ones that warped permanently if you left them on medium heat for 2 minutes? Yep it’s those pan again.

The ones you found in the lovely yard sale with the cigarette burn in the handle on the top side and the electric burner coil melt marks on the bottom side of the handle? Yep, those pans. It was much like Guy Fiere, all flash and no substance or quality.

I never understood the hate of this spike haired goofball because I’ve only really seen him from internet clips, but now I get it.

Yuck.

I made a version of the Japanese mushroom hotpot featured in the ICSA mushroom entry, and it was absolutely delicious. Quick and easy too. I recommend it.

I think the whole humor and appeal of cats lies in the enormous distance between how dignified they appear and how intelligent they actually are. That is to say, they appear to be more dignified and collected than any human could possibly be but they are, you know, pets. It's why I find catnip so funny.
