    I think most men have no idea what it takes to maintain a vagina and should really take a few minutes to educate themselves.

    The larger issue here is that someone can get so powerful that an entire production gets to be scheduled around their bodily functions.


    Next time I star in a movie, I want ample breaks for nose-picking.

    Every woman and everybody with a teenage daughter, please make a list and send him to the store. The list should be as complicated as possible and include the words: super, plastic applicator, light, regular, heavy, and wings.
