Hi Mikey,
Talk about an escalation in hostilities! LOL
Ah, how the little things get so out of hand. Love it.
Great job meeting thee prompt.
This is getting' out of hand - either remove the 'g' or the apostrophe.

What? Whadda mean, little things? I hope I don't open your freezer door and ...
Well, no, you wouldn't dare ... would you?
Nah, not after reading this, that would be silly. Why risk it, right? mikey
Comment from I am Cat
ok, when I stop laughing my ass off... (and I needed that ass for my daughter's wedding, it looked damn good in that dress, Mikey!... I'll review this prose. lol)
"Ha! Talk about out of order, you have to pull that pathetic thing out just to pee. I thought only belly buttons came in innies and outties. Christ, when's the last time you even saw the teeny thing anyway over that beach ball of a belly?"
OMG, scrape me off the floor with those lines LOLOL
What's for dinner, honey?"
"Not that limp cock, you can bet on that."
(lol, omg, you can always bet on the woman to get the last words! lol)
This is priceless... do people actually talk to each other like this?
I'd leave and never come back. LOL
Too funny! Well done, I'm STILL laughing!

Yes, my friend Jerry talked to his wife like that so I took his wife away from him. HAHAHA!!!! Just kidding. (Of course, you know I'm not.)
I've been known to rant about empty ice cube trays and the house clears out. I guess I'm scary or something.
I'm glad you liked my study of couples behavior on this serious topic. Most of my op-eds have an element of humour, but some topics, such as this one, are serious. I've noticed that about women, always the last word. I just let them have it, why not. What's wrong with, "Thank you soooooo much, Mikey"? I think it's very sweet and respectful. mikey
Comment from Bananafish308
I laughed my ass off, Mikey. Vulgarity can be an art form, and you nailed it. When I was younger, we used to insist that the trick to a truly profane rant was not repeating the same word twice. You exemplified that with the following passage:
"..want to know who put this cock-sucking, fucking, ass licking, empty tray..."
That is classic!
You definitely took the empty ice tray pet peeve to new levels. Great job!

You're welcome, Mikey. The challenge was a lot of fun. I look forward to tomorrow's. Bill
Comment from Mary Wakeford
Wow!! Following a conversation like this I think I'd be afraid future ice cubes might be doctored up with some unpleasant surprises!
You've definitely gotten in the head of some folks with some issues far beyond the crystal cubes ;)
Just a few needed corrections noted:
cubes if ice to chill -> of
finals. Maybe ,she's in -> spacing error

HAAAAAAAAHAHAHA! I never thought of that. Jeesh. Hmmm. I wonder.
I fixed that as soon as I read this, took me long enough to thank you, yes? Sorry. :))
I've seen this scenario first hand. A few shots of vodka helps esceltate matters. LOL mikey

You always make me smile, Mikey, most especially on the threads of conversation on various topics 😊
Have a great Friday!
Comment from Ric Myworld
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Lmfao! I'll probably be getting an avalanche of mail for giving you six stars for this foulmouthed rant. But it's fun. And I would bet my ass that everyone on here, if they told the truth, has either been in or around to hear a conversation real damn close to this one. Maybe not with as many expletives, or hell, maybe even more. GREAT job. :-)

I must admit I get a little bit miffed if someone puts an empty tray in the fridge. Especially if I'm drunk off my ass. LOL
Yeah, people aren't always at their best!!! mikey
Comment from Dawn Munro
Koipgqbaydfgi&#$!??? LOL. Holy crap, do people actually talk like that? Methinks they need a vocabulary or SOMETHING. Potty-mouthed is a vast understatement for these folks, but I must admit, it WAS rather funny...I wonder what happened to those last three cubes of ice...(HAHAHAHAHAHA!)

They melted while the argued. More ice abuse. Yeah, people do talk like this, especially if they're drunk. LOL Not that I would, of course. :)) mikey

LOL - oh, of course not! :))
Comment from CD Richards
Oh geez, someone forgot their meds... or a couple of someones.
I can see this taking place - I can even see what they look like. I think that means you did a good job! Although, the apparent ease with which you have managed to produce this vitriolic dialogue makes me wonder...
Great job, and a fun read.

Meds? Yeah, they don't help. Just put the water in the tray, it makes ice. Yeah, use the ice, make the ice, everybody has ice. Well, so I've heard. Just a story really, a potlatch thing. Trivial ice tray thing. Fun, yeah, that's it. Nothing to see here. Thanks, mikey
-
Oh, sorry. This is a deep social commentary piece, and I missed it? The references to ice were crystal meth, maybe? Well, I come from a hick backwater place where not everyone is up in all that stuff, so it wasn't clear to me on first reading. Maybe because I didn't know people actually stored the stuff in their fridge and put it in drinks. Or is it a metaphor? Anyway, I'm sorry, I'll try and get better edumacated so I can say the right thing in future reviews.

Cool. So, you're going to keep the ice trays full. Right on. Good to hear.....

Hi, Mikey

Comment from nordicgirl
Dear. If they only knew. Hee hee hee. I`m not a writer, but I am tempted to give a real life version of this including gang bangers running out of the house in fear. I know quite a few people who always refill ice trays. You have made your mark. NG
