Didn’t we used to have a rule about Doper couples airing their dirty laundry on the boards? Or am I mistaken?
And if the physical violence was exaggerated or hyperbolic, saying that it’s “honest to God” true really makes that anything but clear…
I thought the jokes in the OP, though corny, weren’t bad at all for off-the-cuff responses.
Both are off line…maybe it was foreplay? 
I think Ginger’s reaction was entirely justified. The only thing it lacked was a stick of limp celery.
Seriously? People are actually mistaking this for real-life drama? Seriously?!
Well, fuck. My bad. I guess I was more inclined to take it seriously because I read the related Pit thread first. Judging by some of the responses, I’m not the only one.
You weren’t the only one I was responding to, either, though…just the example quote I picked because it was the last one posted. 
If for some reason you feel you just have to call other posters retards, do it in the Pit. It’s against the rules of this forum.
Don’t feel too bad, quite a few people thought it was real. You have to consider the source of the OP and realize that attention whoring and stupid jokes do belong in MPSIMS.
Right- I admit this thread would be pretty confusing if you don’t know the couple.
Or know OF them.
Uh…anyone who missed the TOTALLY tongue in cheek nature of my OP needs to get themselves down to the mechanic for a quick humor check, I think you might be a quart low. Ginger did not hit me, she rolled her eyes at my taking the piss out of an innocent teenager. Sheesh! Next thing I know, y’all will have a problem with me helping my wife get high.
I personally thought it was a charming little story. I didn’t get an attention whore vibe. Of course, I know the couple, but still…I hardly thought the OP was “attention whoring”. Corny jokes, yeah, but nobody’s perfect…
FWIW, I thought it was funny. “Happy Familiy is number 11”
If you thought it was stupid would **Angry Irish Lass ** hit him?
Why is it that wives are put across as these moms to their husbands, keeping them in line for joking around? if I had a husband, I would be proud if he came up with an ad lib! 
Christ. Maybe you should trade whatever guy you have in on me. After 6 years, Ginger is sick of it, you might like it.
gleefully! Too bad! That’s the horse she backed, and I’m not changing!
I got it! My favorite part was the Happy Family line. Now I’m craving Chinese and it’s 2AM. Damn!
Weirddave, the inclination to mess with church teenagers’ minds is often considered a sign of Southern nobility. I know that Ginger is “from away,” but is it possible that you are from the South? I’ve forgotten.
Some consider parts of Maryland Southern and some don’t, but I’m thinking more of the demented South. (Those special pockets that seem to produce the great writers.)
I’m afraid a few dopers, including myself, conflated this thread with my related thread about actually being assaulted by my daughter’s mother. Sorry, I did try to not hijack this thread with my drama, which I took to the pit. (post #9)
Don’t worry about it TSLK. I struck an unfortunate chord with you. You did fine, I’m just sorry my jokeish thread reminded you of bad times.
