My friend and I call each other "That one" when we are fake exasperated with each other.

Dad's hobbies include: talking a lot, falling asleep while watching tv, working at the church, playing golf, reading the paper aloud (see #1), washing the car, reading (I do generally get him 1-2 books), building Habitat houses.
We gave him some golf lessons for Father's Day.

Always Anti-fascist!
With the added bonus of being vaguely racist and sort of like how you'd talk about the kid who broke your window with a baseball. Heckuva job, Johnny Mac. (Although apparently he's started being honest about his limitations as a speaker with his "prisoner" comment.)

Do any of his tools need replacing, or are there any tools he's mentioned would make his work on the houses easier? I know my dad's expressed some serious desire for a lathe for his workshop, but there's no room so he can't get one.

McCain just replaced "My fellow citizens" in a speech with "My Fellow Prisoners".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, and I know someone who was, until recently, still a pro-Hillary, anti-Obama person, but has just dramatically come around with a huge tl;dr blog post. So that's something. And he's a youngish white male!
