Young, single ladies: America is worried about you. You just keep going to college, moving to urban areas after graduation and finding yourselves outnumbering, sometimes dramatically, the available men of your demographic.

My wife really gets p!ssed when I “rearrange” her accent pillows so that I have a place to sit.
I'd say that every single women is being pursued or asked out by about a 100 men. yeah sure the numbers are in the men's favor the media says.
My big dog likes to chew those little pillows my wife puts on the couch.
She gets mad. My wife, I mean.
Oh, it's slate, never mind.
Thanks a lot pal. Now that I know what accent pillows are, that must make me one them there metersectules. (snicker)
Amanda, shut up and get me a beer!
“All right, what is an accent pillow? At first I thought it said accident pillow. I don’t know what that is either.”

All right, what is an accent pillow? At first I thought it said accident pillow. I don’t know what that is either.
-——————————————————————————————Accent pillow I am familiar with, being married. I still can’t put them in the right place though. But the sweater draped over the shoulders? Fill me in on that one. Probably a demographic (old person) and geographic (southeast) limitation on my part.
This Kaelling is shouting at us and it’s all a lie. Read it carefully and you’ll see she’s just making it all up.
