(3) A) Is that a rhinoceros beetle, and is it your pet and that’s why it’s tied to your wrist?B) Is that watch the most valuable item in the whole province, and now you own many cows?
(3) And you said there were no snacks there. Apparently there are!
(3) There’s got to be a better option for TP…
(3) holy shit.
(4) Nice. Looking ALMOST SLIM but not really. Where is this? Do they have TP?
(4) Worst complement ever.
(4) You KNOW I’ve only gained weight. Anything you see there that makes me look remotely slim is simply a cruel optical illusion.
(4) Oh, and no, no TP. Duh.
