She Obviously Wants To Outsource
by Steve West on April 10, 2013

Recent conversation with Brenda:

me: Oh, really.
Brenda: Yes, really. And after that I'm thinking a new kitchen.
me: I can fix the kitchen with a hand grenade.
Brenda: That'll get me new cabinets?
me: No, but it'll get you Linoleum Blownapart.
Brenda: (obviously wasted joke on her) But I want new cabinets.

Eat me, Arnold Palmer! Go »
