Good Humor by CK Steefel's avatar

Love this!! Spot on. The hilarious truth. It reminds me of the word Gweneth used when she divorced Chris Martin— uncoupling.

I think they were the ones who started this spin of divorce as an awesomely, exciting adventure.

Not realizing that this was a humourous piece because I just saw the name and not who wrote it, I was reading through the beginning and thought, “What the heck is this, this can’t be real.” My husband does affirm though that it sounds very Hollywood so it could be real in some metaverse.

I went back to the beginning and looked at the author and realized that yes happily this is satire ….but very believable satire. Congratulations you were up in the ranks of the Babylon Bee… but even more believable.

I thoroughly enjoyed this piece thank you . It was very Tongue In Cheek, but done so well. I had quite a few good giggles. I love the names of the children, they are actually very believable with what the idiots in Hollywood will call their children ( like Apple and Scout and names that sound like the parents just got released from an alien abduction). Now in this world where everybody is glued to their social media, yes, this could happen.

Thank you for the entertainment. 😉

A beautiful and brave statement. I’m disappointed to be in a stable marriage without any opportunities to evolve the relationship in such an enlightened (and enlightening) manner.

We're not all that lucky, I suppose! I'm sorry.

It's a fine line between truth and fiction in Hollywood!

Oh man. I’m pretty sure it’s only a matter of time before Sauna hits the Top 10 baby name list- it’s too good/bad. I can just see it painted in white script on an all natural wood banner above a perfectly lit cream-colored crib.

Agreed. Little Sauna is probably out there somewhere!
