politely avoiding the word 'hag'

Hmmmmmmm, yes, I enjoyed this write, but I think it would have more bite if you tightened it up and made it a bit less chatty. Like the "singing cake" thing. Just an idea. It seems the chattiness is a way to avoid becoming too pointed in how you truly dislike Cheryl and the choices she's made or how she's dealing with life. So, rather than being funny, it's a cover up. This is how it comes across to moi. I say call her a hag. Serve her a plate of haggis and be done with it. Hehehehe....C
