Texans Season Ticket Holder "Gift"
« on: April 13, 2015, 07:20:17 pm »
Maybe I have a bad memory, but I can't remember a worse selection than this year.  Granted it is a gift, so I need to remember that and not complain.  However, it would be nice to get something I would actually use.  This isn't confined to the Texans.  If one signs up for a golf tournament, conference, or something else of the same issue applies.  You might, and I mean might, get one useful thing out of it.

I liked the apron and of course the football in years past.

What is it?
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

l like when I get a mouse pad, or better yet, a comb.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

When I go to the dentist, they always give me a new toothbrush.

Well, that's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.

And a fucking lollypop.  Mixed signals.
You may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"

Well, this wouldn't be the first year they give the latter. They've done that at least once before. And as for practical, I have much more use for a folio than a football.

An old girlfriend gave me something once. I remember her calling to tell me, and me saying, "Clam dip? WTF?"
