Nine years ago, my Dad asked me to make sure to tell a knock-knock joke at his eventual funeral.

And that knock knock joke is:

Q: knock knock!
A: Who's there?
Q: NOT MY DAD!

I won't even get into the ensuing discussion about potentially rigging his coffin

Today is the USA’s Thanksgiving holiday. I know a lot of you have a lot of things going on that don’t exactly inspire thanks.

Health issues, depression, money struggles, loneliness, grief - and it can all seem even worse on a holiday when everyone’s talking about how thankful they are.

My bff and I have had countless hilarious conversations and interactions over the years. And I mean hours and hours of pure comedy gold.

But sometimes, it’s the simplest things that crack me up the most for some reason. Like these texts:

Me: Gave in and got an iPhone

Him: You’re dead to me.

I like referring to the 1980’s and 1990’s as “the late 1900’s.”

There’s no real reason for that, other than the fact that saying “I was born in the mid-to-late 1900’s” makes me feel like I am absolutely allowed to talk about commuting to school

STORY TIME: When I was a kid, I would look for the toys that had manufacturer defects. (I didn’t know that was the phrase; I was probably looking for “misfit toys” honestly.)

We FoodSavered my Dad: a thread. 1/31

Help me settle a bet, friends.

You see, I’m what you might call “overly verbose,” so I don’t post a lot here.

I told my gf that nobody’s gonna read stuff like “So, we FoodSavered my dad: a thread. 1/128” or “So, this panhandler wanted a pizza: a thread 1/157.”

She insists I’m wrong.

Thoughts?

Listen: Maybe it’s just me, but I somehow feel that having something that looks like the 💩 emoji at the top of your mind isn’t, perhaps, the most conducive to eating Hershey’s kisses.

If you saw my previous thread about my late mom and FB, I should clarify that it’s absolutely okay if you found any of it funny. The birthday messages with “Let’s get together soon” in particular are, at the same time, both extremely funny and not at all funny.

It’s like Schroedinger’s humor. 😂😭💜

Today would’ve been my mom’s 82nd birthday. (She passed a few months ago.) I wouldn’t feel the need to tell you this, except if any of y’all are on Facebook, I have a potential word of warning for you. 1/8

Late to the BlueSky party, but here nonetheless. All my friends from other social media, hit me up!

Me? I’m an actor, singer, writer, teacher, coder, disabled veteran, and basically that one crazy auntie who is probably the family scandal but loves you and supports you in living your best life. 💜
