It's a bloody shame that we we'll have to keep you in the dark about party chiefs, voices, the art of burning f*cklets, Beast resonance at 60 km/hr, mon frere, peanut butter bucket traps, Hunger Games, Game of Thrones, P.O.O.P., fiber and its effects on the bowels (the previous two things were actually entirely unrelated), Croser specials, first impressions, red and blue colored hats, bulrush-induced stigmata, 'would you rather', Hugh Jackman and Tina Fey, wtf topology, burping talents, and much more. Sometimes, what happens in the field stays in the field.
