A bit disingenuous for Alex to say Mike was always working, as if he wasn’t around, when actually she worked alongside him and Kim. Whatever JJ’s failings, Mike more than made up for them. But Alex always has been a bit of a whiner.
Uh oh, they don’t know where the twins are. At our house, we are now dealing with a teen (still fun) and her 92 year old grandma (not so fun), who doesn’t know where she is anymore.
Well, not quite Alex. That’s a faulty method often used to win debates. One debater points out something that has been taken to an unhealthy or destructive extreme, and usually calls for a movement to something more moderate. The other debater points out the opposite extreme, which is also unhealthy or destructive and implies that that is actually what the first debater wants.
I knew a family who had 3 boys. They did a little over-parenting. One kid turned out to be a bank robber. He would up in prison. Another kid grew up and killed someone. He got off on insanity The third one wound up on Wall Street. And he has never done a day in the pokey, Go figure.

It’s hard to follow the new ones when there’s reruns all week.

“Trudeau owes us for passively consuming the comic strip he has worked on for forty years.”
If he’d simply retired, instead of continuing to do new work on Sundays, that would’ve been that. I’ll take what I can get, including the reruns.

I think he’s forgotten about that, even though we haven’t.

Why shouldnt JJ leave it was what her mom taught her. If you dont like your marriage just jump on the back of the bike of two strangers and leave
