You really did pick Minnie! Iā€™m glad I wasnā€™t drinking anything when I saw that. Iā€™ll be laughing all night. Good call on Johnny Depp. Youā€™ve got good taste in men. ---

You doubted me? I think I have good taste in men too. I also think most women have terrible taste in menā€¦ if only theyā€™d learn! I can only save so many, though, you see? The rest are on their own šŸ˜ƒ ---

Iā€™ll never doubt you again. Yeah, I have awful taste in men. Iā€™ll admit it.ā˜¹ But, I never knew you were such a saint! So, you wouldnā€™t happen to have any testimonies of those youā€™ve saved, would you?šŸ˜ƒ ---

Oh well, so much for the testemonials. You donā€™t have a sign that says 8 gazillion customers served, do you? That was hilarious, btw. Best laugh oā€™ the day. ---

And thatā€™d be in less than 10 years too. Thatā€™d be what, a couple million or more a day? More probably. Iā€™m good, but Iā€™m not that good! Actually I could count ā€œcustomers servedā€ on my fingers, I believe. Yeah, that sounds about rightā€¦ ---

Yes, you amuse me. Iā€™ll be nice and not tell you just how easily amused I am. I kid. Sort of. But you are very funny.

Yup, I sure did get those numbers switched around. Thatā€™ll teach me to post when Iā€™m not fully awake. Thatā€™s ok, you understood it anyway. Yeah, I know why youā€™d want to join a womenā€™s group. Thatā€™s why I did the ā€œnevermindā€. What I donā€™t understand is why youā€™d want to join a _bitter_ womenā€™s group.
