Really glad that I closed on my mortgage refinance last week and locked in to an excellent rate. :whistle:

I could wipe my ass with lemon-coated sandpaper for a week and it wouldn't hurt as much as Peez's does right now. Get bent,white devil. :lol: :lol: Dear non-existent God, I needed some lulz right now. Wailing and flailing and moaning about the end of the world isn't going to do any good, but that's...

I can't take credit for "wankcrumpet" - I saw it in a tweet about Michael Gove. The other insult I liked was "confused bag of mince."

PZ you obfuscatory wankcrumpet, it's not everyone who's killing people ... it's a handful of fucking terrorists, usually in the name of "the religion of peace." Moron.
