Honestly, I’ve always wondered just how it is these lightbulb manufactures know that their bulbs supposedly last up to X-amount of years (so they say, more like months) . . . like, do they have technicians who live in their manufacturing plants and monitor that lifespan of a lightbulb without ever turning it on to see how long its lifespan is?
You ought to see the poor guy who works for Intel who has to put all 8.2 BILLION transistors one by one on the silicon die that makes up an Intel i9 – 9900 processor. And that, Shannon, is whey we have a chip shortage. Just do not blame Lays® Or Fritos®…
Toni and Brad might as well just take primary custody of the brat already! She’s with them more often than her father. Plus, she already has her own room at their house and the couple can provide a more stable environment.
I’m sure her dad would be more than thrilled at the prospect of jettisoning the responsibility and Brad/Toni can benefit from the tax deduction.
Brad here has some big “Calvin’s dad energy”, but less cynical. I love this side of him, Toni (and Shannon) too seems to love every sides of him really much.
Toni will have to explain what Bull means. Shannon would not understand that she means BS and Toni will probably not want to explain that to Shannon. You should never use terms around young children that you don’t want to explain.
“Bad?” Pffft. Mischeivious, curious, in need of guidance, maybe, but not “bad.” However, THESE children are dreadful! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY0jB2L7Gow
Wow- been a minute since we’ve seen TONI. I feel like they kinda/maybe ran outta stuff for her to do when she was no longer being such a dramatic element in Brad’s life. Or maybe the “Defrosting Ice Queen” thing just didn’t appeal as much to the younger Evans, who probably lacked the interest in a male-focused trope like that, lol.

Poor Brad. The bride came with a lot of baggage. And Dirk, how ironic, he lost Toni but gained a cute little wife and his own baby.

Too bad you can’t explain to bratty children that they’ll grow up to be the selfish, inconsiderate adults that EVERYBODY HATES!!!
WilliamVollmer over 2 years ago
And, you love another bull aspect about Brad as tell Toni. One of these days that aspect will create a cousin for Shannon.

I believe I told everyone to brace for Shannon and here she is! Fortunately she’s being sweet and funny today.

What the heck, in this case, slinging the bull had a positive outcome.

I suppose that Shannon is a practice run for the baby that Brad and Toni will eventually have.

It’s nice that Shannon is curious about the world. It’s a bit of a pity, though, that her questions tend to sound more like accusations.
