Now, when the mother in law asks for “some nice music, something nice”, she’s means early 90’s Eurodance. She’s in her 80’s. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I disagreed with Trump pretty strongly that America was a garbage country on Monday. By Wednesday I’ve begrudgingly come to see that he was right.

That set list is strong enough to make any sane person overlook how absolutely insane the premise of Mama Mia is. Watched a few minutes of that with the MIL and thought maybe I had an undiagnosed concussion.
