FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work! So i hope this woman is not like kfc chicken, otherwise she'll be pulled to pieces. -organized confused project Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/42600-the-legendary-midway-games/#findComment-950696 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Diao Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Maybe this will force them to buck up and make something decent again.
