But enough. We won't agree. Good luck. Ever heard of Cheeb and Bong? They would design a tank like this. It would be even better. It would be the best, in fact. It wouldnt run, it would have realistic smoke. The tank would be as good as some of the puppets on the cheeb and bong tour. Now lookee here, oaknet! You seem to have a problem with men. A real hatred in fact. You should stop covering editorials on your blog. Maybe, make them less extreme, perhaps. You should probably start being a bit more subservient to men. It would make life better for you. You see, men will be less apt to beat the shit out of you, when they marry you. Then you will be a nice wife and you would be more understanding of the penis envy that you carry with you all the days of your life. You must be kind of ugly to feel the way you do. Probably a lesbian, it seems. Maybe you need to step back and rethink your prejudices. Then it wouldn't appear that you are so much of a tight-assed cunt. RE: CNN.com - Armed Bulldozer Rampage |
