FUCK IT LETS DO IT LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got a flashback…
I remember this party a few years back that was at a friend of a friend’s house. Mad people there, everybody getting fucked up. So dude throwing the party had this VHS tape just chillin’ out in the open with a label written in marker that said “Danny Glover & Martin Short”. We’re like maaaan what the fuck is this shit…just giving him hard time [ll] w/e w/e so he’s like “Hey roll with me real quick”. So three of us go in another room, shut the door and he puts the tape in. It was him wearing a latex glove sticking all sorts of shit in some random broad’s ass puss mouth w/e w/e and his short ass homie was in the movie talking shit to her *dies* I don’t condone that shit and I didn’t even know this dude ahhhhhhhhhhhh maaaan fuckin Martin Short and Danny Glover
