Think how dumb you’d need to be for this guy to sound smart; that’s the terrifying thing.

My mom, for the last year was nearly immobile because of what the doctor thought was her back but turned out to be her hip. In that time, my amazing Dad, a former blue collar dude that didn’t know how to do anything more domestic than fry hotdogs, now is a wizard at laundry, vacuuming, can cook a marinated pork roast
