Like sitting on pins and needles

Great White bands, great rythym and tempo. What happens to white folks when they try to dance. All they do is jump up and down.😢

I was closing down the Bar cleaning the place getting everything ready for tomorrow when suddenly this great song started playing from the Juke Box. Wow! I took a picture of the artist and have played this song on repeat all day. I remember the Talking Heads growing up but i was more in to Nirvana & Guns N Roses at the time. Playing it back now i can fully appreciate this band. Great Band. Great Song. Love it!

Scientific ok it's made up just like physics example Dawn dish soap does not remove Billy goats printer food. What type of programmer is now a doctor and it's the only computer stuff we can get? Is he a real person in Microsoft? Honestly why don't these ppl show up in every city to ask the ppl if they want this nonsense? They know we don't want it. They are not going to show up for ppl to get them arrested are they ppl why dont we see them walking down the street?

Come on now furries, a blow up doll, a table with lesbians I am not being inappropriate it is what it is. Living on the interstate is where ppl will be if this keeps up. The stock exchange is bullshit. 😂
