What In The Blazing Fires of Hell Is This?
This British guy with a big waxed mustache made this show up on my personal facebook page just now. We’re supposed to be friends, but–now I’m not so sure. I showed it to my wife and she said, “Well, if I had to have a penis that one would be pretty cool.” But the question […]
