Yeah, bad _BOYS_. But who wants to screw an _OLD_ man, for a long time?\*

- From a very old, bad joke.

This was my thought too.  
With that sort of bad-boy cred, that dude is in for some serious sexagenarian pussy.

The \*really _crazy part:_

NJKBCNJ!!

\*Actually, scratch that.  
That article is just \*full \*of crazy.

This reminds me of one of our family stories. When my sweet little brother was six, we were watching an earlier version of _The Hunchback of Notre Dame_. After studying Quasimodo, he turned to my mom and said, “If he combed his hair and wore a nicer suit, he wouldn’t look so bad.”

Or 10 minutes after the wedding…

I was going to post that joke!

Oh, well. Why not…?

‘You’ve been widowed three times? What happened?’  
‘My first two husbands died after eating poison mushrooms. The last one died of gunshot.’  
‘Gunshot! How did _that_ happen?’  
‘He wouldn’t eat his mushrooms.’

Nah, I’m not really into murderers. I mean, I’m sure he’s a perfectly nice guy and all, when he’s not killing people, but he just isn’t my type.

Reminds me of this exchange from _Clue_:

Colonel Mustard: How many husbands have you had?

Mrs. White: Mine or other women’s?

Colonel Mustard: Yours.

Mrs. White: Five.

Colonel Mustard: Five?

Mrs. White: Yes, just the five. Husbands should be like Kleenex: soft, strong and disposable.
