either way, they’re not getting more ice cream

Tony asked, about 4 hours ago on Twitter

What are you saying?

Unless there’s no more ice-cream left or she wants the rest of it, I see no good reason for her remark.

Well, I’m saying “please pass the ice cream.”

Tigressy…

You’d let a 10-year-old boy stuff himself with all the ice cream he wants?

is this becoming a running gag now?

Ice Cream Yum!!! Makes me want a RootBeer Float!!!Who cares if the kid can’t have anymore! I can LOL!!!

I haven’t got any ice cream. That’s what I’m sayin’.

She’s ticked off theat tehy didn’t notice her new hairstyle.

Could I get firsts?

@Tony:

Well, what I’m saying is that it’s time to ask today’s…

Second “Daddy’s Home” Question:

What do you want more of?

It reminds me of that speech lesson I received, in which I was taught that “It ain’t right to say ’ain’t.’”

now why would the husband listen to her

Well, ain’t still ain’t gonna pass spell check…

It was only after I moved away from the Chicago area that I learned the word ain’t isn’t acceptable….

…or at least it wasn’t when I was a kid.
