Define "obsessed." It hasn't seemed that bad so far. Any time you turn on the radio it's still mostly a Trump-said or Trump-did

Jesus Christ. Stop being so literal. The couch is irrelevant to his point. He just means you need to actually venture outside your house once in awhile instead of living your life as a hermit.

You only think people are obsessed with the wedding because you live your life doing nothing but watching TV and reading the internet. If you actually ventured outside your house once in awhile, then you would discover that nobody in the real world is actually talking about the wedding. It has never been a topic of conversation at my workplace.

You don't experience the real world because you don't have a job or anything. You never leave your house. Everything you "know" comes from what see and hear on the TV and internet. Go out and get a job, you lazy bum, and start experiencing the real world.

Someone needs to quote me too because I am pretty sure NMB has me on ignore too. I try to give him good advice, and he calls it trolling. LOL

I'm American and I have no idea what you're talking about.
I can only guess it has to do with disgusting heinous rich twots and their detestable crotch-spawns and endeavors of which I would rather get shit on by an elephant than know the details of.

Not all of us, pal. No offense taken though because I do agree that there are plenty of women who are insane with this stuff. Crazy bitches...

and unless people have hidden camera's outside my house they don't know what I do or what my life is like...since anyone who talks about their life is typically trolled to the max

fuck my dad dying didn't even get anything but scorn here and someone on the comics board saying my dad's lucky to be dead cause he doesn't have to deal with a horrible son like me anymore

if anyone had my kind of life most of you would be insane or begging to go back to your regular plain old lives

nobody understands it they try to but they don't....and everytime they google where i live they get town center which is where i don't live

i live in a far more rural part of the town and getting anywhere is a pain....My Mother has MS she's not manipulating me to be some docile meat puppet like gamefaqs unwashed masses believe
