Please, Cyborgs have everything handed to them. I'm sick them taking our jobs and forcing factory workers into the streets.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I read that the phrase black friday originated because it's when retailers got 'in the black,' in other words they turned a profit.

Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
