I Would Be Happy To Work The Marching Band Bake Sale!

I would be so happy to run the bake sale tonight that benefits the marching band. I firmly believe it takes a village to raise our kids and I want to be part of that village! I have a couple questions before I “fully” commit. I realize you have a ton on your plate with scheduling the entire volunteer force, but these 10 questions and several follow-up emails shouldn’t take you but 3–7 hours to answer.

My Name is Rick, and This Boat Ride Across the Delaware Was Misrepresented To Me.

There I was at McConkey’s Tavern drinking whiskey, minding my own damn business when out of the corner of my eye I saw a bunch of men in uniforms approach me.

They were all nice-like and said, “Hey, Rick, you look strong. Wanna go on a boat ride?”

In retrospect, it was an odd way to frame a party invitation, but what did I know? I was hopped up on whiskey and besides, boats are fun!

How To Restart Your Social Media Accounts After You Take The Moral High Ground And Quit

You posted: “I need to spend my valuable time composting, feeding the poor, and calling senators. Social Media is such a COLOSSAL waste of time.” #donescrolling #carestoomuch #aboveitallforreal (▀̿Ĺ̯▀̿ ̿)

It’s a douchebag move, for sure. But what do you do when you want back on?

It’s tempting to chalk up your misstep to a stroke. But this will backfire spectacularly because physical evidence is expected. A speech impediment and paralysis are super grueling to maintain for a lifetime.

So, if a fake stroke is off the table, what can be done?

Can’t find jeans that fit

How To Seduce Your Quarantine Sweatpants.

Phase 1: Stir up your sweatpants’ desire

Unfortunately, you’ve already shown deep interest by wearing your sweatpants the entire year, non-stop. Typically, you would want to appear aloof and unattainable, but you cannot turn back time, so press on.

A controversial tactic at this point would be to notice something odd about your sweatpants. Calling attention to a flaw can make your sweatpants insecure, thus making them easier to seduce. “My, my, you do seem to be wearing thin in the crotch.” Or “Have you always been so purple?” Your sweatpants will wallow in self-doubt.

In Loving Memory: Girl Self-Esteem

When Girl Self-Esteem was young, there wasn’t anything she couldn’t do. She never read about the perfect size butt, and was unencumbered by wishing she had smaller pores. Girl Self-Esteem could be counted on to voice her opinion forcefully and without reserve. “That isn’t right!” and “Don’t touch me!” Those were the glory days.

10 Things You Do As A Parent That Deserve A Fucking Medal

1. The Fucking Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, and Easter Bunny.

The amount of time you spend writing in your non-dominant hand on behalf of these fictional slackers should alone earn you a prize. Not to mention the sneaking around at 3:35am to make sure the gifts, money and chocolates are placed without detection. But don’t worry, all your efforts will be met with, “I don’t like this kind,” “Only $1!” or “I wanted it in blue, ” so it’s worth it. Fucking gold star.

Jaden is an Ass Hat and Will Never Write You Back

Dear Jaden,

I know it’s been a while since we’ve spoken. Haha! You just left 1 minute and 30 seconds ago 😛. Please forgive this email, but there are some things I need clarity on, relationship-wise. I would have discussed these with you in person, but you were pretty anxious to get home after we had sex. I’ve never seen anyone move so fast! Were you on fire? Haha!

So, Ya Wanna Eat a Cannibal Sandwich? Please Fuckin’ Don’t.

Dear People of Wisconsin,

I would like to address your holiday tradition of eating raw meat sandwiches.

First, allow me to take this opportunity to shine a light on what’s happening vis-a-vis the Earth right now.

To that end, dear Wisconsinites, I would like to say, ‘what the fuck,’ in response to hearing you eat uncooked meat at the Yuletide. Might I suggest a cocktail wiener (baked) or some cheese (refrigerated) for your holiday tables? Too tame? Too safe? Too life-sustaining?
