My favorite this year was a family discussion about Shark Tank.
Uncle Paul: I hate the fuckin’ Mr Wonderful. That guy is a Mr. Asshole. Hey Brad - if you were on Shark Tank, what would you pitch? (does’t wait for Brad to answer)... yeah mushrooms. I know, I know. Hey Ray - what would you pitch?
Uncle Ray: ... uh... uh....Truck...........Tires.
