“She’s only going to that funeral to bitch about him.”

“I’ll go and watch Live Streaming Dog Autopsy.”

“Well, if she wants to get into that erotic stuff she better start stocking up on veg.”

“He thinks he’s so sick just because he’s got Air Maxs.”

“Left is the Goddess Temple, right’s the toilet.”

We have a favour to ask

We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
