Was it okay for me to enjoy this tea? In the future should I bring tape to … Continue reading →

This is the link. (The video in the link is NSFW.)

People fail to realize when you saw off the branch for others one should not go out on a limb.

1, 2, 3 … “This is different because these people offended MY beliefs.”

The name of the coffee shop is Bedlam. Hmm … No, even I don’t want to make a joke on such low hanging fruit. (No pun intended but I don’t feel like changing the idiom.)
