Jesus is a biblical figure. Troy and Greece had a war a long time ago. They aren’t related, but each carries its own historical significance. Saying “Jesus” is and has been for quite some time an expression of disapproving surprise, almost like “holy shit.” But one word instead of two. Referencing the Trojan war is…

You do realize Benson was a POS as well right?

This fits in sooooo well with WYTS.

watch out for your dark alleys, billionaire families go in there for shortcuts.

An officer unleashed pepper spray and smacked Bernard with a baton before he was captured, officials said.

My best friend lost his wife suddenly last year. Our families are very close, and that has forever changed our lives even though my daily life is not much different. I can’t even begin to image losing a wife and child. And I don’t want to.
