Sigh. Once again Republicans with super sexy florescent prison palors (closer than you think guys) and perverted fantasies you have to pay extra for (but they won’t because they’re not just thieves but poor tippers) are complaining that acquaintances who have to tolerate them at work but realistically fear that any off site interaction will …

Totally Innocent
I don’t know what so-called “news” you’ve been watching, but this has been a week of unparalleled triumph (which is only 2 letters away from Trump in the dictionary which smart people know is a really big book with words in it).
