No illegal fireworks?

Death to spitters! Unless you literally just swallowed a wasp, keep your mouth fluids in your mouth.

“In the 1980s, Los Angeles had the fourth largest Canadian population of any city in North America...:” Huh.

Oh good, more misunderstanding of what “free speech” means.

Oh my god, you are a genius.

I was also that kid!

It bears repeating: you are doing the lord’s work.
