Update Season X - "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Vol. I."

[Joe Biden 2020]

Why don't you walk with her on Saturday?

Believe me, I'm thinking about it!

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

It'll be great. You can both walk and talk about your future at the same time!

Have you talked to her today?

[Eraserhead]

Why don't you walk with her on Saturday?

Believe me, I'm thinking about it!

What is there to think about? Bring Blondie with you.

I'm not really clued into these heteroweird macho pickup things (the 4ish years I was a guy post-puberty were full of social awkwardness and sexual confusion, and now I don't need to bother with this sh!t), but even I know that bringing your dog out with you is a classic way to get girls.

[Mr. Morden]

He really is going to to get engaged before Halloween. Then we just have to wait for the other shoe to drop.

Who knows?  If she's not bipolar, but is simply immature and reckless like Bushie, then it's *possible* that the engagement won't fall apart, and that they will actually get married.  If not with Allison in particular, then maybe with someone else at some point down the line.

Of course, there would inevitably be problems at some point along the way, even if they do crop up after the wedding.

You have a home there? You have a home here???

If home is where the heart is, then yeah, it's home.

So...if that is your second home, does that mean you have two hearts?

Just a split heart.  I just got a new handwritten letter from both of my sponsor kids as well as an updated picture of the both of them.

Yep, plus she also does need the social interaction and the exercise. (Bushie obviously needs those two things as well.)

[Sopranos Republican]

Are there any real Italian restaurants run by any of us real Italians? I couldn't bear the thought of not being near at least one.

They don't have Italians in Oklahoma. They probably eat that Olive Garden crap. *Shudder*

Awful, awful place.

I don't even touch Olive Garden, fwiw.

If I want Italian, I will go to Zio's.  Not sure the proximity it is to authentic, but its pretty good.

Bushie are your parents encouraging you to marry?

[Joe Biden 2020]

Bushie are your parents encouraging you to marry?

Yes, but not anytime soon.  They want me to finish school first and get a good job.  Mom said, though, it doesn't hurt to talk to someone now, just don't go "all out", yet.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Dates 1 and 2 are planned.  Date 1 is lunch and a chat this Saturday.  Date 2 is the Tulsa State Fair on October 6.  Dates 3 and 4 are already in the planning stages!  If dates 1 and 2 go well, we are talking about introducing the parents in 3 and 4.  First thing I want to do on Date 3 is meet her parents and get her father's blessing to start getting serious.  Date 4, she will drive down here and meet my folks and we might go to a dinner and a movie in Moore.  The dates for Date 3 and 4 are to be determined.

It is rare that such lunacy is so expected and predictable.

[Mr. Morden]

First thing I want to do on Date 3 is meet her parents and get her father's blessing to start getting serious.

Lol, you haven't even met her in person yet.

I might have missed this, but in all of this planning, have you actually been talking on the phone, or did you just FB instant message, as you were doing early on?

[Mr. Morden]

Also, "her father's permission to start getting serious"?  You're not teenagers.  And you're not even talking about marriage here, just "getting serious".  What do you need her father's permission for?  (And why her father's, but not her mother's?)

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I love how all of the things Bushie is talking about are merely expected by all of us. Nothing out of the ordinary for him to ask her father's permission to get serious. Nothing at all.

[Lief 🗽]

I'm confused, if you don't believe in sex or living together or even handjobs before marriage, what exactly is "getting serious"?

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Giving her a ring. All Update fans should know this by now. He is going to ask her dad for her hand in marriage!

[Eraserhead]

Yep, the engagement is coming.

[opebo]

Are you 'briefly relaxing' while thinking about it?

It means The Update is getting good again after the CAD nonsense. Truly the writers are back in the game.

I ask for her father's blessing twice.  Once in October to start getting serious and hopefully once again later to ask for her hand in marriage.  First things first, though.  I've actually got to meet her in person.  This is not going to be speed-dating like I did with Tiffanye.  We're going to go  at the speed at which she is comfortable.

[Mr. Morden]

I ask for her father's blessing twice.  Once in October to start getting serious and hopefully once again later to ask for her hand in marriage.

Why do you need to ask either of her parents for permission to get serious?  And why just her father, and not her mother?  Does she need to ask your father as well?

You must be logged in to read this quote.

Have you even talked to her on the phone yet, or just instant messaging?

[Hatman 🍁]

Don't play dumb, Mr. Morden. Why would he need the mother's permission? Women are 2nd class citizens in the great state of Oklahoma! Might as well be asking the pet goldfishes permission in Bushies view.
