my acoustic guitar a good cigar where is the justice where? war they say is for the hero what is a hero anyway? perhaps a child that sits on the bus by the slow one. the child that makes a friend of the unlovely one. I saw a girl today at the market half of her face was melting. her name was Lori.

Yes, very good! It's not really the heroes that are heroes, but the people with disabilities who are heroes. Because their heroism isn't in the finger that pulls the trigger, or the foot that kicks someone in the groin, or the entire body that flies an F-19 stealth fighter straight into someone's face. It's in their hearts. It's in their souls. And it's in their hideously contorted facial expressions. Besides, I doubt most of them are even capable of pulling a trigger, let alone comprehending what the strange metallic object they hold in their hands is actually for. 10/10!

This is without a doubt the most appalling piece of crap I've seen on this site since... since...

Well, since Tuesday, I guess. No, more like Wednesday.

A single tit: you just don't get it, do you?

Of course not; 'tis far too deepe and profound for my poor wits.

I like seeing the very deformed. They amuse me.
