Fundamentally, you and I are different sorts of bloggers.

And this is why you shut off the pop-over text notification!

The second one was from Labs, I presume?

From F.E. Labs, is my story.

3 is right. Before I did this I had a neurotic fear that someone would text something obscene just at the moment my mother was looking at my phone despite the fact that I don't see my mother very often and I don't think people text me anything obscene basically ever though you're all welcome to now I guess.

The idea of texting my parents kind of boggles, but it keeps me away from having this problem. (In practice, I pretty much only text my wife, though. Some kind of generation gap issue).

Your wife is a whole generation younger than you?

His parents are, by definition, a generation older. So there would be nothing to distinguish wife from parents.

So did your father in law lick your balls or what? Don't leave us hanging here.

LB wants to make it clear that she does not care at all about your balls.

The text was to me, so the command pertained to Labs' balls. You'll have to ask him.

Labs' balls were just left hanging there.

13 refers to Ogged's balls. I argue that Labs' were also hanging.

How do you know that Labs doesn't wear briefs?

My mother's texts are great. She hasn't figured out the spacebar, uses an imitation of headline syntax (amokatcafenow), spells indifferently, and mixes words from 2 languages. It's like a 60-character captcha/sobriety test.
