Devil worshipers, bacon and ancient scrolls. A tasty, guilty pleasure to read about (I am sure).

Yup, they're pretty comparable. Just a few more I must share: *51 Sex Tips Some Tall Women Post On Facebook *This Woman Was Asked To Leave Twitter Due To Her Giant Nostrils.

They need to chill a bit and let the mouse do ALL the work. http://ift.tt/XW0tqv Danger, danger! I've discovered more of these "generators" online. One has inspired me, should I ever become homeless, to become that awesome homeless "Poet" with the "The Awe-inspiring Twenty Second Video" that "Delighted The Internet." http://ift.tt/1c0Ajnl via Facebook
