Suburban humour

The Grass Is Always Greener Over The Septic Tank - Erma Bombeck

Erma Bombneck is quite funny, she is sarcastic as all get out and while you know she exagerates for effect you can see that it's based on reality.  She describes life as she lived it in the suburbs in the 1940s and 1950s and while instagram/pinterest perfection wasn't a thing there was an expectancy of perfect white picket fence living that people tried to conform with that was just as draining.

 

Entertaining as always and an interesting look at how things haven't really changed, just the technology.
