yukky and just plain old wrong

I understand. I make the most delicately balanced flavorsome meal and my husband just destroys it by drizzling hot sauce over it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Why would you do that?!!

The butter addition must be a hillbilly thing. 😜

At Christmas time we have brandy butter that we put on mince pies. It's seriously good.

"We". There's no "we". Back home isn't quite right either. "Where I come from"....?

You're missing the whole point. The mince pie is the backdrop. The brandy butter is the thing. It's butter with powdered sugar and brandy beaten in.

You gotta send James Bond to kill him...

That's a bit extreme. I don't want him to harm anyone but a death sentence is harsh. Also James Bond is a fictional secret service agent that works to secure national security. Some weird pedo guy is not a matter of national security. However I would like to protect my babies from any threat and have felt a deep need to hold my daughter close today and reassure her.

I ran out of southern words. Because I'm not from the south...

I have 2 girls. I know what you mean. 

 

If you don't wanna use MI-6, America has Jason Bourne...

You gotta trust that they will know how to handle themselves when you've taught them the best you can. And if that fails then I would kill the jerk, absolutely.

She'll be fine. I'm sure we all come across people like that all the time. I see one of the local religious organizations settled a case that involved several of their religious leaders and children. There is a big Scandinavian owned corporation in our area who seems to have no problem hiring felons, including ones on the sex offender registry. Such is life. We learn to live with people we find morally repugnant.
