I hit the linen sales over the long weekend — an undertaking that I, in my naiveté, believed would require little more than a commitment to percale or sateen and an understanding of deep pockets. Wrong! I came away with more questions than answers. For instance, what's the difference between a regular and a California king mattress? (And which is mine?) Why is there a California king? This bed is longer and narrower than a standard king. Is it because Californians tend to be tall and thin?
I probed further to discover Texas has made a bid for the king title. Of course it has! Hardly surprising, a Texas king is larger, measuring 8 inches wider and 14 inches longer than a California, begging the question, exactly how large are Texans? Is it that they sleep in their 10-gallon hats? Or do they need oversized beds to contain oversized egos? (Before you come after me, know that my mother's family hails from Texas and most are still there, both atop and beneath the soil.)
I'm put off by your use of the 'C' word, albeit with the letters *****asterisked out. Also, daily sun, why allow the use of even the redacted word? Also, her use of WTF? Isn't this a family newspaper? Classless.
1) You should stop trying to be satirical, because you're not very good at it. Instead you come off peevish and snide.
2) You should turn off the TV or your computer and get out more. Maybe even engage in some real live conversation with real live people. And if you want to be really adventurous, talk to a few people that maybe don't agree with you and see if they are the demons you believe them to be.
If not, consider seeking professional help. Your TDS is in need of treatment.

Well, two things come to mind:
1) You should stop trying to be satirical, because you're not very good at it. Instead you come off peevish and snide.
2) You should turn off the TV or your computer and get out more. Maybe even engage in some real live conversation with real live people. And if you want to be really adventurous, talk to a few people that maybe don't agree with you and see if they are the demons you believe them to be.
