Today, I called my wife to tell her I finally found a job after 6 months. A man answered the phone claiming to be the cable guy. We cut our cable off when I was laid off 6 months ago. FML

All you had to do is ask why the Cable guy was answering your phone to get him caught in his own lie.

Rule 1 of cheating: When at the house of the person you're affair is with DO NOT, under any circumstances, answer the phone. Because it's not yours.

Since when do people working on your house answer your phone? What a retard. And if he was sleeping with her, wouldn't he be smart enough to not answer her phone?

I'm really curious as to what this says...
glorbnakcs 0
It means: "what a sonofabitch!", referring to the cable guy. "q" is short for "que", which translates to "what" "hijueputa" is an informal conjugation of "hijo" "de" and "puta", which translate to "son", "of", and "bitch".

Actually, I'm Hispanic. I was just.. raised in America for the most part.. So.. Other ways of typing/spelling/saying bad words.. and even some bad words... I'm oblivious to. You don't learn a lot fo bad words when you live in Mexico from ages 3-9 ;D
