KWICK KWOTE: Let’s Plant Some Flowers and Drink Some Wine
Besides using the chalkboard paint in the girls room, I also used it on our pantry door…an ugly white eyesore. Originally when I thought to use the chalkboard paint, it was intended for this door.

I’m sitting outside…guess where…yes, Starbucks. I see two male teenagers sitting in their car, ready to leave to get to their next destination. Teenboy 1 to teenboy 2: “Dude, do you mind going thru the drive-thru of Chick-fil-a for a sec?… …Oh fuck! It’s Sunday, dude. They’re closed.” Now, how many of you have said [...]

“I know why it hurts more for boys…because they have tails that’s why.” -Louise ??? Ding!Ding!Ding!Ding!Ding! (Tails=Penises, Get it???)
Kwik Kwote: A Key for the Men’s Room…WTF?!?!?
“Why the hell do we have to have a key for the bathroom? That’s some bull-shit!! Like, that’s SO ridiculous that you have to, like…. …get a fuckin’ key… …then go piss… …then like, have to go give the fuckin’ key back. I mean, I don’t know….that’s stupid!!” -An Unhappy Starbucks Male Customer [...]
