Dear Dad Address Unknown

Arthur Chappell @arthurchappell (44941) • Preston, England 24 Oct 15

I guess you can blame a lady called @Jessicalynnt for showing me how to contact you, as she wrote a lovely article online about her letters to people who are no longer with us. It made me want to write to you. Your departure in...

Another Obama Gem Appointee

laglen @laglen (19759) • United States 4 Feb 11

It turns out, $500,000 buys you an ambassadorship to Luxembourg. No qualifications, no desire to do your job and the ability and desire to break rules at every turn. I am talking about Cynthia Stroum. Obama appointed her to this...

Oh Crap He Just Went Inside With a Hammer!

ZaffireWolf @ZaffireWolf (480) • United States 1 May 08

The neighbors across the street from me are a good example of why people should not go to America. They're the typical animal-abusing hick family, with the drunk alpha male father tinkering away on his cars, the mother who looks...

Functional vs. Dysfunctional Families

bojo96 @bojo96 (46) • United States 13 Aug 07

Sims 2: The Game Your Neighbors Can Unwittingly Play!

ZaffireWolf @ZaffireWolf (480) • United States 12 May 07

So I decided to make a household in the Sims 2 based off of my neighbors, a redneck group of angry, violent, abusive sociopaths with more dysfunction than the Simpsons, but not as much as the Osbournes. Almost as much as the...
