I really like how you got specific with your husband comments because it made your commentary more relatable. It seemed like you were providing real-life insight about dealing with men which was funny.
ReplyDeleteThis rings entirely true in most cases, and the reality of it is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI really liked how you pointed all the hypocrisies of "your" husband. My favorite part was when you talked about him complaining about a high phone bill over text, while you're in the house together. It was funny. Overall, good job!
ReplyDeleteI like the amount of detail you included in this. The charm was in the small, everyday aspects that you included.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Alyssa. I like how realistic your examples are. My Dad has to have his ties color coordinated and organized by day of the week and what color suit and shirt he is wearing.
ReplyDeleteI loved this, its the perfect sterio type. Who wouldnt want a husband like this?
