Speaking of wigs, is Joni Ernst wearing one or is it just her lizard costume doesn’t fit correctly and the head part keeps sliding around?

Counterpoint: if it was a warm day, no tights is vastly more comfortable than wearing tights. It’s ridiculous to force a small child to be uncomfortable because of “tradition.” That has nothing to do with Hollywood or Instagram.

“Resolute Against Partly Cloudy Days.”

Oh, so THAT’S why her hair is so voluminous: it’s full of secrets AND it’s a wig!

Seems like nepotism was yet another prerequisite to be a part of the corrupt 45** regime. On par with the 45** family.

“The mercury in the thermometer read 47 degrees, but I knew with the wind factored in, it felt like 45, maybe 42. This presented a challenge, nearly as stiff as the breeze I encountered, as I had chosen to leave my scarf at home, and my neck quickly became kind of chilly.  Also, my hair was blowing, which was…

Expressing honor and filial respect towards one’s parents is a beautiful sentiment. And Chao is another corrupt weasel who needs to be in prison.

“Fearless against the wind” makes about as much sense as titling it “Brave in the face of a slight incline.” 

We wanted children, but were never successful. Over the years when people asked if we have children and I said “no”, it was so often followed by how children are one of life’s greatest joys, or “you should do it”. Now that I’m turning 40, I’m coming to the sobering realization that some people still don’t just stop at …

It’s almost like wage stagnation (for people working low/minimum wage) for 40 years and inflation has less of an effect on rich people. Weird!

Exactly. Even countries with incredibly generous social support systems in place have seen their birth rates drop consistently over time.

My better half makes his own sauce so I have to tread carefully here. But I'm too intrigued to turn back now. 

I doubt Ina Garten wants a tv network. She’s already very busy and has to be ready when Jeffrey gets home. (Not a criticism. I love their relationship.)

Prosperity gospel and trying to save heathens.

Store bought humus can be quite good and comes in many flavors that you may not want to buy just one or two ingredients for.

OMG that crap at Target!! I saw it for the first time a couple years ago and I could not believe how over priced it was. Like $15 for a 4 inch unscented pillar candle, and those crappy fake plants. JFC on a cracker I can’t believe people buy that shit. 

Put that sippy cup down! JUICE IS FOR CLOSERS.

They are prosperity Christians. They believe that they are entitled to rule the world.

Well kid, I’m glad to see you taking initiative on putting color into your presentations, Mom has definitely noticed, so keep that up. We still need to work on the outbursts in the office and the pants shitting. Definitely a distraction to the rest of us here. Though, to be fair, the dog hasn’t complained.

I had to Google Rao’s and now I want to try it. Extravagant indeed!
