That’s Jenny’s number.

I would buy that album.

¯_(ツ)_/¯ not me, just making a funny

I thought juggalos didn’t bathe?

Especially this one. Which is even scarier when you keep in mind it was written 6 years ago.

It is so nice when we find each other, because no one else wants to hear about it. Argg!
