BTW, does the “N” in RNC and DNC stand for Numskull?

lol

It’s some consolation I suppose. But only because I use a QWERTY keyboard instead of a Dvorak.

Buddha:

if it is any consolation to you D and R are close together on the ergonomic keyboard. And recently have been interchangeable.

So RNC/DNC = F . . . d America.

One word solution.

Trebuchet.

For the whole lot of them. Turkey and all.

And Byron! Shame on you. With the RNC’s track record on science and health as evidenced by their stands on stem cells and abortion, ehh, you picked the wrong punchline. See, for a joke to work, there must be some sort of dramatic contrast as well as correlation. In the RNC you have a record of scientific ignorance which correlates nicely to not knowing your own kids have allergies AND contrasts science/ignorance.

I’m not saying it’s a bad joke. I’m saying it could have been better. And more accurate.

I blame too much stuffing. The holidays are slowing you down, old man!

Indeed it is. If you read the article, there is a long troubling history for the family.

I wish that they had had access to the flipping machine. Nah, it would have taken some of the fun out of the good times. Nothing quite like a good all out brawl on Thanksgiving Morning. I wonder what they have in store for Christmas?

The observation that dad was not even aware that the son was allergic to celery shows that the family has more issues than just this.

I’m confused; Daddy Donald Smith wasn’t even aware that his own son Tristan was allergic to celery??? I have a feeling this story is just the latest in a long line of family funtime for the Smiths…

Wow! That is one funky family. It is so sad to see this kind of behavior by “adults”. It makes you wonder what is going to happen to the kids. It may be a good thing if they were separated from these braniacs.
