One of my favorite things about both my birth family and my married-into family is that at least once every few months there is a hysterical email string that circulates. My siblings just had a rousing back and forth about Lyme Rage. Hysterical.
So, the other day a picture circulated through my married family of The Husband at the July Bride’s wedding. In his own words, Kevin was “overserved” that evening. The picture is living proof of his suspender obsession that grew exponentially with each Gin and tonic.
We love the Budweiser Real Men of Genius commercials in this family, so true to form Cousin Megan gave this picture a Real Men of Genius title. Then Kevin took the ball and finished the entire commercial-proving that he is pretty funny sober too.
I just had to share. So-I now present our guest posters Megan and Kevin: (You have to sing everything in parens just like that creepy falsetto that commercial guy does.)
“Here’s to you, Mister Smiles-like-Penguin-from-the-Batman-movie, suspender-wearer”
(“Mister smiles-like-Penguin-from-the-Batman-movie, suspender-wearer”!!)
“Most people just smile regularly and wear a belt, but that’s not your style,
and you have had way to much to drink”
(“Bombay Gin’s delicious!”)
“Creepy smile? Check. Excessive sweating? Check. Large scale family embarrassment?
Double check.”
(“That guy’s not my brother.”)
“So here’s to you oh Super Villain Smile Guy,
because you make looking bad seem sooo good.”
(“Mister Smiles-like-Penguin-from-the-Batman-movie, suspender-wearer”)

I just sang this. Out loud. It's even funnier that way.
I'm coming back to this post just to see that picture again. And again. And again. 🙂
That's hysterical!
