twitter.com/shitmydadsays- "Oh please, you practically invented lazy. People should have to call you and ask for the rights to lazy before they use it."
- "You worry too much. Eat some bacon... What? No, I got no idea if it'll make you feel better, I just made too much bacon."
- "If mom calls, tell her I'm shitting... Son, marriage is about not having to lie about taking a shit."
- "I need to change clothes? Wow. That's big talk coming from someone who looks like they robbed a Mervyn's."
- "You sure do like to tailgate people... Right, because it's real important you show up to the nothing you have to do on time."
- "Just pay the parking ticket. Don't be so outraged. You're not a freedom fighter in the civil rights movement. You double parked."
- "I like the dog. If he can't eat it, or fuck it, he pisses on it. I can get behind that."

What's you gut say...is that guy for real, or just the work of an active and very clever imagination?

I prefer not to ask myself that question - I don't want anything to spoil it...

My father would never have said "I can get behind that." At least, not until he had mastered "I can dig it" and "Kewl!" I smell either a fake--or a real young dad.

Look, this guy's dad is probably way younger than me. Can you dig that? I'm with John. I don't want to spoil it.

Uh huh. I'm only 64, and I've never in my life gotten behind anything that wasn't stuck in a snowdrift.

Wouldn't that be a sweet gig. Can I get some lawyer type to set that up for me?

I have it on good authority (he wishes to remain anomymous but his name starts with Z) that lazy didn't even originate with our species. My informant assures me that he has seen Neanderthals using blunt sticks because they were too indolent to put points of them. And going through midden-heaps looking for bits of chipped flint that were "close enough for skinning work" without any further knapping.
When I pointed out that he lived in a cave because it was too much trouble to build a lean-to, all he said was, "Yeah, whatever."
His cave, I should point out, overlooks a valley.
