I’d rather get the call from Cankles. Telling her off would be amazing!

Grayson another Gaia-worshiper?

We’ve saved lots of flowers, whether on Mother’s Day or not, by encouraging them to develop roots. Not any of our fault that these dialectic heretics refuse to learn to do that.

My mother has flowering fruit trees in bloom right now thanks to me.

Jennifer Grayson can kiss my ass.

Jennifer Grayson hates her mother.

So I mowed my lawn today. When's the trial for genocide?

Liberals now oppose motherhood.

I suppose it makes complete sense with their celebration of gay marriage.

And archaic traditions such as giving flowers are sexist.

I Just burn a tire instead. Often in a closed environmentally sensitive area. On an endangered somethings burrow. Under a spotted owl nest. And throw the ashes in a creek with snail darters.

Is it wrong that I just don’t care?

Liberals are also highly susceptible to vermin and disease.

And serve no useful purpose.

Everything needs to banned because it ruins the environment, preserves venerable traditions or just makes people’s lives worthwhile.

The Left really hates humanity.

I’ve no doubt in my mind that once the world is 100% on renewable, the Left/media will invent/find a problem with renewable energy that require massive injection of money to fix

Funny, the tradition in my family has always been live plants because Mother’s Day is the kick off of the gardening season.

WaPo hates flowers? Especially cut flowers? In houses or corsages?
