1) It's the greasiest, crappiest, cardboard pizza you can find (call up some college kids, they'll tell you where the cheap-ass pizza is at).
2) You can eat your fill, but afterwards there will be a 3-hour speech by the President. No bathroom breaks will be provided.
That's no bowling ball.
(Yes, I know it's a non-seq).
Is there a good food to use as a metaphor for the economy?
Please tell me that is a joke. Nobody could have hair like that.
I thought the gold standard for Austerity Wingnut Cuisine was Cut Up Hot Dog's.
Since when is an RNC chair making straw-man arguments news?
I'd like to order the Kenyan Muslim Deep Dish special (Chicago gangsta style) with the Socialist sauce and extra ACORN topping
