Just sub “going to the basement” for “in the bathroom” and you’re 99% of the way. I LOL’d and will hafta remember this one. Also, that’s a great euphemism for “dumb.” As in, “I ain’t sayin’ she’s slow or nuthin’ but she thinks …” Sunday night is one big trash can party 'round the MMP. How lon… Something about hand-painted boxes I didn’t quite comprehend. FYI: to find this I opened the Discourse search page, picked your user ID, the partial hint word “tradit”, and dated in the last couple of months. That gave me four (!) posts to look at, and three of the four were obviously wrong from the excerpt shown on the results page.
