Wanna feel old?
You see it a lot in duel challenges.
This is the slowest and worst version of the Hokey Pokey I have ever seen. Shake it all about already.
As a historian I am inclined to call him a damned rascal and a poltroon.
Iβm on it.
Presumably the family? They wouldnβt have likely had much inside info on whether or not it was real, I donβt suppose.
I just wore my seat belt here in Chicago. Does that mean Iβm more of a βrough manβ than he is?
After my whistle patrol shift I guess Iβll eat some stew.
Itβs his epitaph on his slab, though.
One more sour apple tree to plant.

I wish I could host a million dollar per plate fundraiser.
All funds go to me just going wild with drinks and apps at bar trivia nights forever. Rattle your jewelery.

At least W had the courtesy to spend months hyping bullshit reasons for a war instead of whatever this is.
Hard to believe Dillinger was so riveted that he didnβt notice all the agents coming and going.
Manhattan Melodrama! Mickey Rooney gets orphaned twice in the first time minutes; you have to have a heart of stone to see it and not laugh.
If Trump wants to help his friends get richer on betting markets, why not just throw them a bone if they bet he mentions Bigfoot in a speech or something?
(Of course if I ever get a chance to really fuck polymarket over with inside information myself, I sure wonβt feel bad for polymarket).
