I have learned to hate Designer Outlet Neumünster, Shopify, and Danish paid podcast company Podimo with a passion usually reserved for fascist politicians!

Private Squidward: “Sir, yes sir!”
Fuck your entire sector of industry, Tom Cruise.
You mean conning people to join the cult or his hobby of mediocre acting?
You mean on Pornhub?

Do you have any idea how much women’s shoes cost?
At most.
Judging by the picture, he doesn’t really HAVE a few seconds left for repeating, though 🤷
I don’t control American English
Not when your lack of spoons is compounded by social anxiety…
Except you literally just did with your ridiculous strawman version.
