BADA BING!

I was born a male and identify as a male.But according to Stouffer’s lasagna, I’m a family of four.

My biology teacher asked what the function of carbohydrates were.Apparently “filling the deep well of sadness inside of me” was incorrect.

Stop buying plastic skeletons for Halloween. It’s terrible for the environment.Locally sourced, all-natural skeletons are much more environmentally friendly.

I wake up every day planning to be productive. Then a voice in my head says, “Haha, good one!”And we laugh and laugh and take a nap.

In Athens, no one gets up before noon.It seems dawn is tough on Greece.

Why buy it for $7 when you can make it yourself with $92 of craft supplies?

Every box of raisins is a tragic tale of grapes that could have been wine.

If it ain’t broke, fix it until it is.
