I might very well be the only person on the planet who has not read the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy and has no plans whatsoever to see the movie. (Actually, that’s not true. My husband has no plans to do those things either, so there are at least two of us.) ew. Opening on Valentine’s […]
Dear Totino’s…. do you think we’re idiots?
Dear Totino’s,If these are the Kids In America, then the kids in America (and their parents) need a major ass-kicking. I hate this commercial. HATE! Click here to see it.(I can’t embed it… sorry.) If anything? This commercial serves as a marketing deterrent. signed,A parent in America
The argument for laziness.
Last night we were talking to one of my boys (who shall remain nameless while this is still a Hot Topic Issue in our household).
