Wealth Redistribution Plan

Backstory: I’m the out-of-work Democratic daughter of Republican parents.

Did you apply for unemployment, by the way? or do you still not qualify? Dad has paid into this program for years and paid a fortune doing so, so take advantage of it, please!! (This does not make him a liberal, rather one of those whom the government is trying to redistribute his wealth, so it might as well be redistributed to you.)

Instead of iron cookware, would you like the mechanized toothbrush for
your birthday?
Lots of questions, need answers.
Love, MOM

A Fine Dating Prospect

Backstory: My mum is desperate to get me off the shelf and married with babies. This was her latest “offering”. (Gail = her best friend, Gary = friend of my cousin).

I told Gail about you being out there and being a bit lonely and she suggested you got in touch with Dave, who now lives in Rotterdam and is trying to get a job there, such a coincidence! Do you remember him, he used to be friends with Gary at school? I know he was a bit strange when he was younger, but the thing is darling he is now apparently a lovely boy and has got over his eye problem now and also has got through to the last round on several interviews so won’t be unemployed much longer

"I asked myself the same question many a time during my years of teaching teenage boys! Poor Mom and poor Mr. Harrison.
(No, I never had X is a Penishead written on a desk, thank goodness, but I did have to throw out a dozen textbooks at the end of the year at one point because just about every picture had been, ahem, similarly embellished.)"
