Now there was a real comedian. And man could he horsewhip hecklers. Though to be honest his rape and pillage material was a little too edgy for me.

I’m on team pooper here. Fuck you if you won’t let me use your toilet if I’m in distress. Learn some human kindness or clean up human shit, it’s your choice and the consequences are on you.

I bet they have some really great apps.

Forget about darkness and despair. Will there be tits?

"An entire group of men approached me," she says now. "It made me feel very unsafe."

No need to be alarmist. Thanks for putting it in perspective. So what? Maybe 50 to a hundred cities wiped out and like a few million casualties? I for one am reassured.
