Gotta get that "I'm into birds now" money

Jealous of the tech guys who got so rich that now they just post about birds

@Wharrrrrrgarbl i don't like the sound of that

Eating a breakfast sandwich in a strip mall while my mom is in surgery and wondering how they make the egg taste 3D printed

It would appear banana guy and the laboratory are two different guys called Cavendish my bad

@tmcw he also intended to make me throw up in front of my crush, rude
