You look fine to me. You look great. You look good. I’ve got a… but it’s nothing like what you have. I can’t complain to you. Anything else going on? Is there anything I can do? Can I…. for you? … Continue reading
“Things You Can Say,” for $500
Cancer looks good on you. You look tired, is the cancer getting you down? Radiation, Chemo, Work… you’re under-doing it. I see you’re limping, your life is getting shittier by the step. I know you don’t want anything, but nothing … Continue reading
Laisse-Moi Tranquille
