They laugh hysterically at their own antics, but no one likes them.

Why is the boat sinking?

Nice. Keep at it!

Personally, I never go fishing in a boat with a plug. Or is it two kids in a bathtub?

Indeed! As a self-appointed workaholic, it’s wise to grab my thrills wherever I can squeeze them in.

With any luck. all of this effort will buy me my own ice cream truck one day. 🤭

🤣 My mom used to own an ice cream store. I worked there part-time. And yes, I eventually grew tired of ice cream. But once I quit, the appreciation returned.
