    Number of comments: 26
    I need an explanation. Because I just don't get it. I don't get YOU. You are baffling to me, like trigonometry or the millions of women who want to have sex with Robert Pattinson. I. just. don't. understand.

    Ya know, the world continues to surprise me every day. And by "surprise," I mean "make me want to bang my head against a wall." Not in a violent way, but more like a wanting-to-get-dizzy-enough-that-this-makes-any-sense-whatsoever way. The ridiculous thing is that many of the things that surprise me actually surprise [...]
