After this, I’m not going to be able to complain about Meghan Trainor and having to teach my son that "All About That Bass" is talking about girls with big booties.

If you kill a tortoise, even on accident, you probably shouldn’t have children.

I’m not there yet. But I need to be honest—I’m closer to 40 than any other multiple of five.
