“And she seems to have loads of fun doing…
…all those boyfriends. Duh. Let’s get the obvious one out of the way first.”
…the splits above every sprinkler head in the garden just before the automatic timer turns them on.”
…my hairstyles for me. She said today’s was inspired by the bush right behind me.”
…the laundry! Because nothing’s better then the satisfaction of seeing your clean underwear swaying in the breeze on the clothesline and thinking to yourself, “I made this happen. Good job me.” ”
…it. Whatever it is. She’s never really specific about “it”. Only that she does “it” and does it quite frequently. Sometimes four times a day. And she makes a lot of money doing it too. Enough to buy that guy she lives with all the fun hats with ostrich feathers in them.”
Jams, you are one twisted, very funny genius. Love it. (For some reason, the hairstyles-bush gag was the one that made me laugh hardest. I’m not sure why. All of them are hilarious.)
Forget the past? Ha!
William Faulkner: “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
Great quote, Dave. And coming from Faulkner, it seems especially appropriate.
Forget the past? The woke community is sure trying to erase it.
Hey, John. (Catchy name!) I don’t believe in erasing the past or ignoring it. But I think it happens on both ends of the political spectrum. It’s all a matter of what you object to.
I’ll shorten the setup: a man asks his wife to make him happy and sad, all at the same time. She says “You have the largest penis of all your friends.”
Now that’s the kind of humor that keeps me coming back to read comments! Thanks!
