So, I just graduated.

    I graduated from college last weekend.

    The fiancee graduated from college this weekend.

    At the future Mrs. Sneed's graduation dinner, I say, "Man, it's weird, we're all graduated and grown up and stuff. We're not college kids anymore."

    Without missing a beat, the future father-in-law says, "Yeah, now you're just unemployed."

    Found that funny, felt like sharing. That is all.

    That's the cue to drink heavily.

    I think that might be the wrong que.

    You should have told him you already had the inside edge on an executive position -- President of Shaggin' Your Daughter. [/ Leon from Curb]

    It was a joke.

    Did I really need the blue font?

    What was the punchline?

    Not really much of a punchline. In the light of layoffs, etc.; I was merely kidding that, if someone were to tell me that I'm nothing more than just another person to add to the list of those unemployed, I'd be pretty upset by it.

    Sure, it's reality, but I'm not telling him to literally go drink himself stupid.

    No, I'm good with that part. Perfectly good advice. But the word is "cue."

    You do realize you spelled cue wrong, and that's what we're mocking you for, right?
