Very interesting Benjamin.

I like that meme.. at some I might follow suit.

I like the curse DAMN... recently I've started using FUCK and SHITE.. and I really wanna stop doing that and use BUGGER.

You've never been to a strip club? I wouldn't have expected that.

I have more scars than I could possibly even begin to count.
