When that's done, we can curl up our toes and sink into the pit. That's work enough for a lifetime.
I have never voted in my life... I have always known and understood that the idiots are in a majority so it's certain they will win.
So many vaginas, stomachs, cocks, snouts, and flies you don't know what to do with them ... shovelsfull! ... but hearts? ... very rare! in the last five hundred million years too many cocks and gastric tubes to count ... but hearts? ... on your fingers!.
The more one is hated, I find, the happier one is.
