It is hilarious. Remember the experiment of cross pollination vs same peas in a pod pollination and how many mutant peas were bred from the same strain? Welcome to Tracy!

"Police checked with the woman, who said the man took complimentary candy out of her store after she told him not to and then he ran out."

ROFLMAO!!! Please stop, my sides hurt! "Let's see, I think I'll put out complimentary candy and then complain with someone actually takes some!!"

OMG! Is this what happens when your family tree doesn't branch off? Why are these people breathing my air?

Doesn't sound to me as if the 17 year old is going to get a second date out of this relationship.

And the poor 2 year old should be placed in protective custody . Mom should go to jail for child endangerment.
