Don't fall for this shit

Oh, you had Thanksgiving drama this year?
Well, I got a little tipsy and watched Whiplash with my grandma after dinner, thus avoiding drama.
My grandmother says "You're wrong" but would like to try
Was my train to Milwaukee delayed an hour? Yes.

I'm a planet fitness person because I have no money. But may move to los campeones depending on where I move next. A bit expensive and fewer locations, but the facilities are A-1 Sauce (plus it feels wayyy less crowded)
