My wife should go so she can hang out with her native peoples, lmao. But then she'd have to pee every ten minutes, being pregnant and all.

concerning James, maybe he was the lead singer and it was autobiographical. Possibly NSFW due to lyrics.






This is generally how TECORE works, we have a big group that appears to be going, then a week before half the guys drop out lol
