(Psst — most “landlords” don’t own their properties outright and can’t pay their mortgage without rental income — our society is a house of cards.)

It’s the dirty south...I don’t understand why they opt for a zero visibility ride with the nose pointed to space, when doing the opposite makes so much more sense: get that a$$ up in the air, and make it BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE.

Can you really normalize that which is a centuries old tradition?

Goldschläger: the tacky shit you slowly steal from your college room mate while he’s away, one sip at a time.
