Michelle Obama and Barack Obama have different styles when it comes to showing and receiving love — something that took time to get used to, she said on an April 25 episode of her Audible series "The Light Podcast."
(snip)
Michelle said that her husband is more verbally and physically affectionate because he and his family lived far apart and didn't get to see each other very often, whereas she grew up surrounded by extended family and considers expressing love as being present.
"One of the things that's different in how we show love is that because his family lived far away, and traveled a lot, he had to learn to love at a distance," the former first lady said.
Marriage counselor Gary Chapman created the five love languages in 1995, categorizing how each person wants to receive love: words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch. While Michelle said Barack leans more towards words of affirmation and physical touch, she prefers acts of service and quality time.
"I grew up with everybody within eight blocks of each other," she said. "All my aunts, and uncles, and great uncles, and cousins, and everybody celebrated birthdays. So we were with each other, every weekend, twice a weekend. We were always together. So it was like, 'Mmm, bye. I don't have to tell you I love you because I'm going to see you Saturday.' So love, for me, was showing up. It was like, 'Yeah, yeah. Stop kissing me. Just do the laundry.'"

TMI
Sounds about right for what she'd say to him when he tries to kiss her. The more I hear this woman speak, the more I almost feel sorry for Barry.
In reality it is more like :
Can I borrow your jock strap tomorrow...
Agreed. Way TMI.
Euuuuuu. TMI.
DWLLWGAFF?
Do We Look Like We Give A Flying F.....?
Suck my c*ck instead, Barry
"...and put this dress on."
"But, Mike, the dress is too sma..."
"I said put it awn!"
Lol!
Anyone got that Team America gif of Gary puking in the alley?
Gawd, that is disgusting on SO many levels. First that anybody would think to ask these questions and write this drivel. Second that those people would respond to these questions like that. And third that anybody in their right mind would read it.
Seriously, when was the last time either of them went through a laundry basket matching socks?
Finally a photo to go with this classic Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly hit song True Love (from High Society, 1956)
Suntanned, windblown
Honeymooners at last alone
Feeling far above par
Oh, how lucky we are
While I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love
For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
Love forever true

I did not read. I came for the comments.
Big Mike’s having a mad ...
In grammar school the nurse’s name was Mrs. White.
She had ‘green bags’. They were waxed paper. For emesis. Throwing up.
I want to go to the nurses office and get a green bag.
Barry: “Get that thing away from me. I’m still sore from last nite”
Big Mike: “ Okay, but you’ll get twice as hard tomorrow!”
That dialogue is what Saturday Night Live should have done with the Obamas.
