Jesus, shut the fuck up you dumb know-nothing.

Did Andrew Luck lose like 50 pounds? He looks skinny as hell in that photo.

The following joke is popular among my family’s circle of fellow Jewish immigrants from the former USSR:

I don’t know, I work from home and I do go days at a time without speaking with my coworkers, and let me tell you, it’s kinda lonely.

Is there ever a time when Zach Randolph is not carrying a large amount of weed?
