50 Shades of what?
Published on 2012-05-23 07:30:00
Right now the hottest book on the planet is '50 Shades of Grey' which is part of some trilogy that my girlfriend is reading and has the apparent side effect of making women really really horny so I'd like to ask the author TO KEEP MAKING THESE BOOKS PLEASE and thankyouverymuch.*ramps up cardio trainingIf you're unfamiliar with the book, I pulled this off wikipedia to give you an idea of what's inside:"It is notable for its explicitly erotic scenes featuring elements of BDSM"For those unfamiliar [..] > read more
"Man buys Axe Body Wash, Waits for Orgy"
Published on 2012-05-21 08:00:00
I use Axe Body Wash regularly for a couple of reasons but mainly it's because their marketing department still has me sold on the fact that if I use it, hordes of women will just jump all over me because it contains pheremones or something (I am not a scientist).Plus, I have coupons.So this is an actual conversation I had with my girlfriend, Kerri, while in a store browsing the display of available Axe products:*************Kerri (picking up one of the bottles): "Here...try this one for a change [..] > read more
