So virtually every Hollywood actor and actress as well as a great many politicians, CEOs, medical doctors, and nurses are all slobs. Great to know.

Its alos pretty well know that any palces that servces alcohol in a area is a vilolent meca.So I say tax liquor especailly by the drink much higher.
No Way!!!

Hey man [MOD CUT/vulgarity] that's not cool. I think people that grossly generalize are largely slobs hahaha how's that? Now excuse me while I step out for a smoke, hopefully i can infect someone's lungs.
