When I was a kid, most families didn’t want dad at home, sitting on his @$$, writing poetry, playing the guitar and “spending more time” with them. They wanted him at work and bringing home the bacon so they’d have something to eat.

B-b-b-b-but he may not have discovered his real calling as a hair sculptor or a hipster poet!

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I can’t decide. Either Dave has been thoroughly brain-washed and now enjoys his new, unencumbered life or this article was written with tongue firmly planted in cheek.

Pajamas and hot cocoa— that’s the ticket!

One of the nice things about learning to write poetry is that a lot of words rhyme with fart.

[Cyber Liberty]

I’m voting for the option that includes a cheek and a tongue....

Either Dave has been thoroughly brain-washed and now enjoys his new, unencumbered life or this article was written with tongue firmly planted in cheek.

It was tongue-in-cheek.

I felt the sarcasm in every sentence.

[elkfersupper]

I would echo that sentiment, as I have had similar experiences.

I recall a poem about beans...

[Ditter]

Are you thinking about that old favorite “beans beans the Mexican fruit”? :)

[Army Air Corps]

Ah, your knowledge of classical verse is well rounded, sir!

Bttt

My father used to recite that to us frequently (with appropriate sound effects). Strangely enough I had never heard the word “fart” until my husband explained it to me( again with sound effects).

Now I just have to get my family used to having me around.And find something to do with my time. I’m Dave, and I love this new America.

Sadly, within a year Dave's wife will leave him. He'll start drinking too much. And he'll realize the government has taken his spot as father and provider.

Obama's elite friends were wrong - Dave didn't take up poetry, art, or polo... but on the plus side, he can see a doctor - in a year or two - he's 300th on the list.

You mean that fruit that’s good for your heart?

[Jim Scott]

This wickedly satirical piece sums up the idiocy of the Obama administration telling employees that are seeing their hours cut or job disappear entirely due to the Obamacare debacle, that not working (and qualifying for taxpayer-funded Obamacare 'subsidies') is some kind of 'liberation', which is insulting rubbish.

When a society starts believing that it's parasites are noble then the people still working and footing the bills (via taxes) are made to look like fools. If too many workers decide to become takers then who will pay the costs? Apparently, leftists never ask that question, assuming that there will always be enough 'rich' to pay for 'government' handouts. This doesn't end well for anyone.

You may not have heard the word, but I am certain that you were aware of its presence. ;-)

[Ditter]

“The more you eat the better you feel, so let’s eat beans at every meal”. I guess that means your heart.

[Ditter]

OH yes! :)
