This photo has absolutely nothing to do with this post.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Its Wednesday and if you’ve had a week like mine, you probably need a laugh. For starters I suggest you check out Michael Bane’s latest blog<\/a> which is his satirical application to be an editor at NRA’s American Rifleman magazine<\/a>. Funny for sure but it left me wondering, do I really write like that? I didn’t know it was possible to express nostalgia and ballistic bull crap all at the same time.<\/p>\n

But before you head over to Michael’s blog, check out this funny I found on Facebook. No, really, this is not<\/strong><\/em> something that happened to me.<\/p>\n

Husband comes home drunk on St. Patricks Day and breaks some crockery,\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>vomits and falls down on the floor.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>Wife picks him up and cleans everything.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Next day when he gets up he expects her to be really angry with him.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>He prays that they should not have a\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>fight.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>He finds a note near the table and it reads,\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

“Honey, your favourite breakfast is ready on the table,\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>I had to leave early to buy groceries but I<\/strong><\/em>‘ll come running back to you, my love.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Surprised, he asks his son,”W<\/strong><\/em>hat happened last night?”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Son says, “W<\/strong><\/em>hen mom pulled you to bed and tried\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>removing your boots and shirt\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>you were dead drunk and you said,<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Hey Lady leave me alone I’m married.”<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
