Covers: Pickup Lines & Flirting, Roasts & Insults, Excuses, Fun Ideas
Mary edits the pickup lines, roasts, excuses and fun ideas, which means she spends a lot of time deciding what is cheeky and what is too far.
Her roasts are written to be laughed at by the person being roasted, her pickup lines are rated honestly, and her Elf on the Shelf ideas come with how long each one takes.
She believes the best excuse is a boring one, and the best pickup line is the one so bad it works.
