So that's what happened to RickyBoy! (5534 and counting!)
Bloody brilliant!
Well, bloody anyway
I believe that is the very definition of Darwinism in action
Motorhead = brilliant! Guys who cut their balls off = not brilliant!
400 out of fifty million ( maybe half are women ) is such a low number that this could be explained by retardation or mental illness. They're all crazy to begin with and this just proves it.
The purpose of this should be obvious to you all!
Mr. Singh is simply... Ahem...cutting down on his competition.
