I make a pretty mean chicken salad that my wife and daughter both like: chunks of canned chicken breast, mayo, spices, walnuts, celery and sliced grapes. I got home last night and asked my wife what she and our daughter had for dinner and she said that she'd made my chicken salad, but it hadn't been very good. Something was just "off" and it tasted really weird. She and our daughter managed to eat 2 or 3 bites and decided it wasn't edible. They were trying to figure out what was wrong and why it tasted so funny when our daughter said, "Well, I don't think grapes belong in tuna salad." My wife then realized that she'd been distracted and thinking about work and had used tuna instead of chicken.

At least they knew something smelled fishy.

"Spending $1,100 to save $250 seems too reasonable to pass up...it will be an honor to pay the credit card bill this month." lol
Reminds me of a Blondie cartoon from way back. "You spent $500, but saved $200? At this rate we'll be millionaires in no time.

Here's one just for you "U".

Until this year, the wife has never been a big fan of landscaping or even cutting the grass. She'd always say something when I'd pull out the chainsaw and cut some branches. Always worried I was going to kill the damn things. Not sure what happened, but she's out working in the yard all the time now and reminds me that she plans to cut the grass the next day, so I won't do it when I get home from work, lol. Yesterday I get home from work and she's working on a little landscaping project. It's an area where the trees block most of the sun, so growing grass in that area is hard. I comment that it looks pretty nice. She then proceeds to point out a number of branches on different trees and tells me I need to cut them so more sun gets through. I decided not to tempt fate and didn't mention the possibility of killing the trees. lol

My wife signed us up (without asking me, weeks ago) for a company "gala" (glorified circle jerk) in Cincinnati on September 3rd
"We didn't have anything on the schedule!"

Now I have to watch the game in a shithole state. With shithole people. In the shithole city with the team that knocked ND out of the playoff chase. My life is a series of unfortunate events.

I'll be at a fu*king wedding so I feel your pain. Fall weddings are the worst. Friday wasn't cheaper? Cmon people.

We made friends with the neighbors and I told the guy a while back how Fall weddings on Saturdays are diabolical because cfb.... so,... they're getting married on the 10th and invited us to everything. They are Mexican so it's a morning wedding, afternoon reception and evening dance,.... it's literally all freaking day and then another reception the next morning. 'friends'

Ever thought of waking up on September 3rd and not feeling well?

First of all, fuck you.

Second, where is the event and where are you staying? I can give you some tips on where to catch the game if the event is over early, and where to get good food and drink if you're in on Friday or early Saturday.

Come to the tristate area and I can show you to some quality Mexican cuisine along the Ohio River. It will change your mind on the whole city!

If you don't quit taking shots at Cincy, I'm gonna send you 8 lbs of cooked Skyline via Fedex.

Your whole house will smell for weeks.

This is all just a joke, right? Nobody actually plans a wedding for a Saturday in the fall. Only an uncultured, inbred, obtuse savage, or a Tennessee fan does that.

There's only one real tri-state area and it has nothing to do with Ohio. #NYNJCT

Probably uses flour tortillas for their skyline tacos. Don't forget the skyline quesodillers.

I should not have called Ohio residents shitholes. I was angry. And I didn't mean that. (This is me apologizing to Freeman, Quinn and all the other Ohio greats)

But it really is a shithole state
