I think they pretend they are both husbands when speaking with others.

[secret garden]

Yes, but we have a lot of people around here who jump and look when you yell “Squirrel!”

[SoothingDave]

Right. Instead of some sort of discussion about their experience and what it portends for Obamacare, they want to declare “Gay!” and move on.

It’s pretty sad.

[SoothingDave]

I read it in a woman’s voice and thought about what she was saying about their experience.

Try reading it that way.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

The left was excited and jubilant
Thought Obamacare wonderfully roborant
But Biden’s “Big f**king deal”
Has lost all its appeal
Making democrats far less exuberant

[NeoCaveman]

OK. Now I can’t get over how forty one year old persons flake out and leave their jobs when they have bills and needs like medical insurance.

These people are too stupid to live.

[SoothingDave]

Yeah, I don’t care about what kind of sex you want to have, but you generally can’t have BOTH parties in a “marriage” quit their jobs at the same time.

[secret garden]

Mawwage. That dweam within a dweam.

[hobbes1]

Gee. Thanks pal. Lol

You basically just sentenced me to a barrage of hate...

You had to know...lmao.

[Travis T. OJustice]

4 years of high school latin, I don’t recall this word at all.

[hobbes1]

But If they’re the same size...they double their wardrobe immediately

[secret garden]

A barrage of hate? Sorry. It was not intentional. I’m confused.

[hobbes1]

Lmao! ...i was just discussing the days of AM radio, much to my dismay, it was on WABC’s best list. Every thirty minutes....

I love FM, but...every time one of those songs gets mentioned, it’s...as you said...an instant flashback

[hobbes1]

Rofl..that. 1-2 ping.

I could not resist a bit of puckishness...lol

[hobbes1]

I provoked it. Just figgrd you know me well enough where I would go with that...rofl

[secret garden]

I thought you'd want to see the ranting and raving.
And that's why we listened to WPLJ when I was in HS. Cousin Brucie was for grammar school.

[hobbes1]

Lol..i loved PLJ.

[hobbes1]

Mirth, is a roborant for the mundane travails of life. So, here’s an apple teach.

You should get a shirt that says MirthMan....

[SoothingDave]

I am Mirth from Earth. Nanoo nanoo.

[NeoCaveman]

It all went down hill once the old baby appeared
