A loveseat with a baby-chair on the way.
Excuse me, but his book VERY CLEARLY said he used a rubber glove.
Or was he raw dogging another couch while he was cheating on his wife with the couch he definitely wrote about in his book? (Chapter 11, page 180.)
Sofa, I haven’t read any clarifications on the matter. It seems like a story someone should chaise down
Here, take my up
holsteryvote.Doesn’t require lofty Eames either.
you all are really chairing me up
Wait . . . Is JD Vance . . . a Sub-Genius??
I don’t blame him, that sextional has got a lot of cusion for the push-in.
That deserves at LEAST sensible chuckle.
Bravo.
Now all I can think of is the my pillow wife comic that I cant fucking find, but instead its couch fucker Vance and the couch he fucks.
Take your up vote you beautiful thing
That’s what vetting is all about, you moron.
That said, I hope they also asked him when he wasn’t around his wife.
I hope they didn’t, and that surprise is still yet to come
The ottoman looked studiously away.
Footstool: “Daddy!!!”
JD:
“You’re not my real stool! You’re just a stepstool!”
He was asked by his Mamaw if he wanted to suck dicks. Unfortunately he was too weird to learn from Mamaw
“I’ll never forget the time I convinced myself that I was gay. I was eight or nine, maybe younger, and I stumbled upon a broadcast by some fire-and-brimstone preacher. The man spoke about the evils of homosexuals, how they had infiltrated our society, and how they were all destined for hell absent some serious repenting. At the time, the only thing I knew about gay men was that they preferred men to women. This described me perfectly: I disliked girls, and my best friend in the world was my buddy Bill. Oh no, I’m going to hell.”
When he brought up the issue with his grandmother — known to Vance as “Mamaw” — she replied bluntly: “Don’t be a fucking idiot, how would you know that you’re gay?”
When Vance explained his reasoning, she laughed.
“JD, do you want to suck dicks?” she said, according to the book.
The young Vance, apparently “flabbergasted,” said: “Of course not!”
“Then you’re not gay. And even if you did want to suck dicks, that would be okay,” she replied. “God would still love you.”
I had to actually check that this was real. Mamaw seems like she was a decent person. What the fuck happened to him?
He is just too weird to be decent
I don’t think that’s it, there’s plenty of decent weirdos out there.
Ah, you are mistaking cool weirdos with conservative weirdos
He’s probably that kind of weird and trying to act like it’s normal.
Sure, I guess my point is: Weird isn’t the problem, lol
You gotta get with the program friend. They are fucking weird and they don’t like it when we say that
Just seems unfair to weirdos to compare them to someone as awful as JD Vance I guess. Creepy seems like a better word but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Would he have answered differently if his wife wasn’t present?
I said above that would I hope for their sake that it was both and here is why… if you ask him in private, he might say yes or no whether or not that’s true. If you ask him in front of his wife, you can gauge her reaction to his answer. If he says no and they notice she reacts to that in even a way that shows she is doubting his answer, they should notice. Whether there was something to notice and they noticed it, I don’t know.
Lawyer: do you have any secret family?
Vance: no
Wife: pulls out controller and presses X
From the article:
“Oh, by the way, if I did, I’m not going to admit it in front of my wife,” Vance said, laughing.
Regardless, I wouldn’t consider an answer to that as dependable with his wife present. Similarly if a doctor is asking about sexual activity, I wouldn’t expect them to ask in front of their SO.
If you want an honest answer, make sure it’s in confidence.
That kinda bugs me. When I had to take my wife to the hospital, they asked her if she felt safe at home, and if someone was abusing her, while I was in the room. I offered to leave the room for a few minutes so she could answer clearly and they were like “no, that isn’t necessary.”
It really should be standard procedure. I’ve never laid a hand on her, but it should be standard to protect the people whom have been abused by their partners.
Or have a good body-language interpreter behind the glass. Though with his response, may not even need to look to the wife to see how nervous she was about it
So what was his answer?
Oh no! It seems like he couldn’t answer this question truthfully with his wife present. Now, a secret family isn’t so secret anymore if you tell your wife about it, is it?!
JD Vance, most likely: “So Usha’s not white, but she probably still wouldn’t like that.”
His secret Canadian family…
…his even more secret attic family.
Unexpected 30 Rock. Lemmy is really becoming home!
Damn. I need to do a rewatch. I can’t remember what episode this is from.
I think it was when Don Geiss (Dan Goose? LOL) died.
His secret Canadian family…
Keep us out if this shitshow.
He’s America’s own problem to solve.
Did they ask him in front of his normal wife or his secret wife?
In front of both; Normal wife was sitting on secret wife.
Is it face sitting when fake wife is a sofa?

Why is he complaining about the fact that his wife was present when he was asked? Surely it would only be a problem if he did. The fact he’s complaining about it kind of raises a red flag.
Y’all opened the floodgates for weird, absurd conversations. Blame yourselves, again .
Guy: dude don’t ask about Emily and the kids in front of my wife, wtf is wrong with you?
It’s a thing the GOP doesn’t need to worry about since this idiot was elected as my local borough president after having been caught with a secret second family years ago
