Pet Peeves
Pet Peeves
- Taking a bullet from a Russian spy, then finding out that you have to declare it as a gift from a foreign government.
- Unlike the Men in Black, you have no cool "flashy thing" to make it go away.
- Can’t make a trip through Dallas without constant POTUS side-eye.
- Just when you get back to the motorcade with his three Big Macs, the jerk decides he does want fries after all.
- Keeping a straight face during the Mussolini poses.
- Eric thinks it’s funny to pop an inflated paper bag in the Oval Office.
- With the change in season comes the task of rearranging Melania’s lipstick holder.
- Vice President Pence keeps asking, "Do you like movies about Gladiators?"
- Turning the White House inside out trying in vain to locate a Bible to be used as a prop.
- You can never remember which family member has the code name "Bumbling A-hole."
- Now *you’ve* started calling them "hamberders," too.
- Having to explain the Marmaduke cartoons to that son-in-law guy.
- No matter how many showers you take you can never wash off the stink of KFC and shame.
- The job just isn’t that exciting when the greatest threat to the President is his own Twitter account.
- Repeatedly whispering correct pronunciations of damn near everything.
And the Number 1 Secret Service Agent Pet Peeve…
