I don’t remember that. I do, however, remember thar you made the majority of users on my old forum so uncomfortable with completely inappropriate sexual comments that the moderators had to ban you. And you got mad when I declined to let you write my IP for publication and $. Which ain’t fan fiction.

We had a great day celebrating Grandma’s 100th birthday, and then a great evening out with my sister, brother-in-law, and my cousin. Good weekend.

I’ve lived from Lyndon B. Johnson to Trump. My parents tuned me in to current events from a pretty early age. With that in mind, Four Seasons Total Landscaping will probably always be the single funniest political moment in my lifetime. Five years ago today. Never Forget 😎💜
