tough to pass up this amazing offer
it’s really got it all
charm, the military, friendship, threats, god, a random stranger, a thank you, a blessing,
and a photo of general milley of course
such a smooth operator
but i’m going to have to take a hard pass on this one
too bad, so close!

Haha! Very smooth. This looks like a friend gag. Threatening someone to be your friend is never a great strategy. (Brings back memories of a child saying to a classmate, “If you don’t play with me at recess, I’m not going to be your friend anymore.”

Wow! I haven’t seen that one before! Should I be jealous that I wasn’t considered pretty enough to get this request? I have such difficulty in being thought that I am naive, unaware, or just plain stupid enough to people who send these! I am a bit curious, though, what the success rate on getting a return response is…
