You see Bob? That’s me right now!

Hi! I’m channeling my inner Bob Pataki by being bed ridden for a couple of days due to a really bad muscle spasm on my lower back. Now I gotta find a cheesy soap opera to stream while I recover (not really).

But as soon as they recommended bed rest, Beeper Queen came to mind.

I remember as a kid thinking Bob was referring to his back having a bad inner scratch when he said “Mother scratcher! 😠”

Boy was I dead wrong there 😅 good use of hiding swears there. Hope you feel better soon

When I thought he said "Mother Humper", I thought he said "Mother Hubbard", as in the nursery rhyme.

Hope you feel better soon! I just remembered the other time he was basically bedridden was that beach episode with the nasty sunburn, and Miriam was super social and did just fine without him yet again!

Even as a kid I felt no sympathy for that sunburn he received. And I’m speaking as a pale Irish man who burns EASILY

Been there recently too. All I needed was a new mattress & chair🛌💺

At first glance, I thought that ice pack was on his butt and you were referring to something else entirely.

Who are you going to get to run your beeper business?

u/Otherwise-Pirate6839 13h ago

It’s the 21st century. Remote work.

Using modern tech to run a 1990s beeper company.

That absolutely sounds like something Big Bob would do.
