It was when they whole heartedly supported Trump. Then they bitched about existence level “DEI” things.

Pay your taxes, use your blinker, and don’t preach at people. As long as you follow those guidelines have a fucking field day with your life.

This is an actual event that occurred. While we were engaged for about a year my wife came to my work to drop off some coffee that she had gotten me. So I came from behind the counter took the coffee from her and gave her a quick peck on the lips you know just a quick kiss. And a lady that was coming up to my desk from there looked at that event and said “Oh is that your daughter?”. Now we do live in a very rural part of the southeast United States and if you’re familiar with the stereotypes involving that, that question was just creepy.

People assume I’m my wife’s older brother or friend. They often ask her if she wants her check separate from mine. It drives her insane. She makes a face and snaps “No, my HUSBAND and I are on the same check.”

Here’s mine.

And for the same reason. This was The Ex and my song. It was a toxic, on again off again, 4 years long thing from when I was 16 til I was 20. It used to be every time it came on I scrambled to skip it, especially if my wife was in the room. Now, I can listen to it if it comes on I just feel a little uncomfortable.

You can train your kids at McDonalds. And while I’d acquiesce about Applebee’s, if alcohol is served, children shouldn’t be. Sure that may limit what you can do as a parent. But I’m sure the joys and triumphs of parenthood will outweigh the loss of having a beer while your child knocks into other customers at the restaurant.

Oh yeah you’re that dude who was commenting on my meme about kids being annoying in a restaurant. I didn’t feel the need to comment there because I had thought “person doesn’t realize that few people have problems with well behaved kids or understand that people know that kids OCCASIONALLY act out.”. But it looks like you’re doubling down.

First, did you see anyone complaining about kids on playgrounds? Play places at fast food restaurants? Public parks? No? That’s because those are places for kids to be running around. Restaurants where adults are trying to relax is not for kids to be running around. Full stop. There is no “but”. YOU need to teach your child that their actions affect those around them.

Secondly, YOU choose to have children and where you take them. If you take them to a place where you know they have the potential to inconvenience the people around them and they do, then you are inflicting them on others and that makes you a bad parent.

And lastly, I can’t even remember the amount of children who stayed at their table, where maybe a little louder than would be necessary but ultimately settled down, or were well behaved and well mannered. But I do remember that the parents of those children were usually well put together and maintained people who seemed to have control over their life. An unruly child who was running around the restaurant is usually a symptom and not the problem.

It is indeed a .ml thing.

The guy who sings “Take Me Out” was killed for some reason is what I remember.

I’d plug in a bunch of psychology books and start getting profiles on every politician in every G4 country. I’d find their dirty laundry and air it on the news. I would make being a politician such a risky job choice that the rich would do everything in their power to avoid it. Then once a crop of people with differing ideas and a willingness for good faith compromise appears I’ll do everything I can to support them.
