I'm waiting for the reports that either Skipper or GI Joe were responsible for the breakup.

Ken's already on the rebound, spotted getting comfort from this woman:

Irregardless, if he's referrring to his hand as "Mrs.", then they should assume he's taken. On the other hand, if his hand is just "my girlfriend Ms. Hand," then he's fair game.

Please, please tell me this was a joke -- I might blow a gasket otherwise...

Thanks for the pep talk.

Yeah, but at least chimps have opposable thumbs...

So you've got that going for you, which is nice.

Now that might be a little excessive. It's almost like inviting the SO's family to extend a visit . . .

ET change phrasing above and to note that you may be right, Coltrane advertises that he loves Legally Blond 2.

Joke.

And it's really losing its luster* b/c people are starting to think it's a real word. In fact, I may have recently seen it in a dictionary.

*as a joke

Edited to add that its use in casual conversation used to get some (a/k/a a few) laughs. Not anymore. And I overemphasize it so people know I'm kidding.

Is there an opposable thumb? That's important. For grip.

of course, plus there is a strong liklihood of fidelity from her.

It's really more of an outline than a map.

Uh, so according to some on the FB, this is confirmation of Ken's homosexuality?

actually the last time my mom visited, Mr Man turned to me as she was leaving and said "aww, can't your mother stay another week?" and then we had a nice laugh. it is all in delivery and tone of voice.

As long as you aren't getting a lot of discussion of long-term plans and "let's just cuddle tonight" I think you are OK.

Now, now, Flinty. I'm sure it is not because you are ugly. Ugly people get hit on all the time, and not just on anonymous laywer internet chat boards. The majority of the country is ugly and they are all out there hitting on each other left and right. If you are not getting hit on, I'm sure it has more to do with a personality defect.
