My lady friend drank too much last night at our friends Xmas party, threw up, has a headache this morning, and I didn't get sex last night.

My holiday is ruined.

And not one of those bulb suctions. Get that tube you draw a vacuum with your mouth

I echo the same sentiment.
This would have been the little guy’s first real, non-Covid Christmas, and we still ended up quarantined.
