When Mom got mad at my brother she’d yell THOMAS CLINTON! Clinton being his middle name.Sorry...please explain the above humor.....I simply don't "get it"....
Yep. The hierarchy for me was:When Mom got mad at my brother she’d yell THOMAS CLINTON! Clinton being his middle name.
I'd know I was in real trouble because my mom would use my first and middle names, sometimes adding on the last as well. While my transgressions were benign by comparison, it would make me think of particularly heinous serial killers - they're often mentioned in the media as Firstname Middlename Lastname. Average criminals are usually just Firstname Lastname.When Mom got mad at my brother she’d yell THOMAS CLINTON! Clinton being his middle name.
