Based on an unsustainable agricultural model?

Increases your chances of contracting Kaposi's Carcosa by 23%.

Thanks. That's a helpful description.

Hm, I always thought my Burger King shits weren't black enough. Problem solved!

I thought that maybe she is Mormon and FB is trying to get her to date a nice LDS boy with the magic underwears. Or it could just be more anti-Mormon propaganda from the lamestream media.

Hey, it's happening to me, too! I just now realize that I've been mixing up the names of some of the maps.
