  1. Saw this on the Washington Post site today. It's a classic. Just in case anyone's wondering, Mr. Bad Hair is the Republican, and Mr. Purple Shirt is the Democrat.

    1. Hmm, purple shirt has the bad hair in my opinion but thanks for the note, that's interesting. Sounds like they fight a lot at family holidays, must be a shitshow with booze involved.

    2. They both have bad hair. Brown suit guy is 1950s Brylcreem and the grey suit guy is still hanging on to that 90s tousled hair thing. If they have a third brother, I'd bet he's rocking a mullet.

    3. LOL Karen! Also, I'm worried about any sisters they might have.

    4. Sisters would be either a poodle perm or that 80s hair that Melanie Griffiths & Joan Cusack sported in Working Girl.

  3. Oh wow this is funny. Darker haired guy seems more comfortable with situation, grey haired guy looks like he's secretly shitting his pants.

  5. I love this so much! When the dark haired guy drops his head into his hands and says, "Aw, mom!" I about died laughing!

    "I just want a peaceful Christmas this year!" LOL

  6. Proving you're never too old for a good, old-fashioned what-for from Mom!

    Oh, and they both have bad hair: no winners there!

    1. Agreed. You can be 60 years old, but on word from your mother in that "mom voice", and you are instantly 10 again.

    2. @Karen. My Mom has been gone for just about 30 years and just to remember her "Mom voice" as my conscience is more than enough to give me pause. :) Too funny.

    3. @Meanie Lost my mom 7 years ago. Remembering the tone of her voice when she called any of us kids by our first and middle names makes me pause a little.

  8. I just figured out who she sounds like - Grandma Saracen on Friday Night Lights! "Matthew! Where's the remote? I'm gonna miss my stories!" <3 Grandma S!
