HIS SEX LIFE
This “standard” Tuesday evening event still ranks as “a highlight” of the “busy week”; the foreplay, though “charming” and “consistently good”, can sometimes “drag on” for “what seems like forever”; the “infamous” “swirl maneuver” continues to live up to its reputation as a “crowd pleaser” while the patented “grinding motion” is “wonderful” and certainly “worth waiting for”; opinions are split on the “use of dirty language” but there’s no question that the “creative exploitation” of garters is “particularly tempting” and “swoon-worthy”; hipsters will enjoy the “casual” “blend” of “wacky” bongo music and incense sticks as a “tempting” “soothing” backdrop to this “ultimate display” of “Zen-like” “debauchery”; the inclusion of the “bizarre” and “creepy” robot leaves longtimers smarting.

HIS SON’S SCHOOL SCIENCE FAIR
Billed as a “fun-filled” and “entertaining” afternoon, the Sabal Point Elementary science fair was “a total letdown”; the exhibits were “amateurish at best” and most “resembled the work of a child”; “even casual observers” will notice “blatant inaccuracies” like the “inclusion of Pluto” in the “crudely designed” solar system which was “nothing more” than “a collection of different sized Styrofoam balls”; though “a few exhibits” showed “insight” and “an attempt at scientific discovery”, this “so-called celebration of science” was “basically a lame-ass showcase” of “paper mache volcanoes.”

HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW
“So what if she lives 2,000 miles away?” ask aficionados of this “crabby” yet “grumpy” “routine” visitor; her “frank commentary” and “overbearing opinions” make this “formidable” woman a “constant threat” to “everything you hold near and dear” including but not limited to “your sanity”; “look out” for her “compliments” as they often “mean something else”; “details matter” with this one so “it’d behoove you” to ensure the “linens are freshly ironed”; though she’s “technically family” and therefore “unavoidable”, most agree she’s “tolerable” only in “small doses.”
