apparently every pornstar out there you can fuck for a couple hundred bucks, I'd stop worrying about morality and the afterlife and worrying about having a life partner and procreating and just have fun. Hell may do that anyways.

And by may, yeah I'm gonna

 

[wakephan09]

No. It's nonsense.

 

[dartsndeacs]
