It was a 'winter party.' It wasn't his birthday. However, with Doug being a Canadian, Feb. 15 fell on Family Day long weekend and a holiday for most of Canada. So we did sort of celebrate with him.

Or simply Random 'official' Doug days. That seems more suiting.

It's not that simple and you know it. People who think it's that simple are why Conman Twitty is back in office.

It never said birthday party anywhere in the video. Why did you write birthday?

My twisted mind thought Doug was gonna shoot everyone. Glad it turned out okay!

u/MissClawdy Feb 19 '25

Thank you for the follow-up! I'm overwhelmed with joy for Doug. In the video above, it shows the food but no one around, I was afraid he would be ghosted with a ton of food and that would have crushed my heart!
