Well there ya go lol

Yeah no trust me bro’ing

It’s the only sensible thing to do.

Exactly

Daughter: It's dangerous outside. Be safe. Mom: *Immediately finds the closest exit and opens it*

😉 ~ ALWAYS ... sure you're not also a 'Dad' ? 🤔

This is why I setup a camera inside the safer area of the house, I’m watching the safe place so it makes me safe by proxy right?

It makes perfect sense to me

That is a law, is it not?

I always thought so

Every tornado warning here elicits a speech from my spouse about how most of our tornadoes are not as bad as in Texas. Which I always respond to by mentioning the Tri State and how it almost killed my grandma. This also happens on our porch. It's like a ritual.

As one does.

A true Midwesterner!
