Can you do your taxes at a drive-through ATM? Because it really feels like the person in front of me is doing their taxes.

Has anyone tried reminding all these old billionaires that they’re going to die like the rest of us? ‘Cause it really feels like they forgot that part.

This zoom meeting could have easily been a phone meeting that should have been an email.
We had pizza tonight and as I brought the steaming triangle of deliciousness to my face my son put his hand on my arm and said, “Dad. You’re gonna burn your mouth. Like last time.” And lemme tell ya, I felt both seen and loved.

When I tell my kid “you missed a spot,” by spot I usual mean everything. You missed pretty much absolutely everything.
I miss the age when the things I worried about were windowless vans, quicksand and the Bermuda Triangle, instead of worrying about every single thing in the world all of the time.

After a long conversation with my wife I now admit that “buckle the fuck up, buttercup” was probably not the best response to our friends announcing their first pregnancy.
Wife: do that thing I like. Me: *winks seductively* *walks over to the closet and grabs the candy we hide from the kids*
