    The Big M was a warehouse store where I grew up: The Middletown Merchandise Mart.

    Mike, your grammar. The way you said it indicates that YOU have your own baby and a little sister. You should have said “I have a baby and a 10 year old sisterS at home.”

    The sign he left for the baby is much more rude.

    That sign is just inviting a whole bunch of toilet papering.

    For all Michael’s annoying traits, he was raised right, and this proves it.

    The Big M. Could stand for Big Moron or Big Menace or Big Meanie.

    I had a very very good lock on mine since both my sister and mother would go in when I wasn’t home and use my make up stuff, spritz with my perfume and wear the clothes most of which didn’t fit them so they would alter them. I went ballistic and my father got me the locks so they couldn’t get in the door or my window; since it was right by the patio that they could have climbed in the window.

    Michael’s rap:

    Now this is the story all about how my life got twist-turned upside down. I would like to take a minute so put your head on your arm, I’ll tell you how I became the Fresh Prince of the Farm.

    In Millborough born and raised, on the playground where I spent most of my days. Chilling out, maxing, relaxing, all cool, and playing some ball outside of the school. When Brad Luggsworth, he was up to no good, started making trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight and it scared me ’marm. She said “You are moving with your aunt and unky to the farm!”

    I did not to be from Martha separated, so my dad told me I could stay if a job I located. I found a job at the pool hall as required, only to learn John was a goddamn liar. He just wanted me out of the house.

    I called for an Uber and when one came near, the license plate said EH and it had a maple leaf air freshener in the mirror. It was going to cause me alarm but I though “Nah, forget it. Good sir, to the farm!”

    I pulled up to the house under a full moony and I told the Uber driver “Thank you sir, here is a tip of a loonie.” I looked at the place full of rustic charm and was ready to be the Fresh Prince of the Farm.

    Oh come on, you sillies. Who cares what exact words Michael used? The point is that Michael actually cares about his sisters after all, and he’s not reluctant to talk about them. Underneath that grumpy teen we suddenly see the man Michael will become. It’s heart-warming.
