Sometimes I just despair of people
I mean, what the hell was wrong with this person? How do you get to be so entitled? I’d say they ought to be banned from driving, but they’d probably continue doing so anyhow.
Just sayin’
Apparently some winners have reported that their 2026 Olympics medals are falling apart. Well, this is Italy we’re talking about 😀
All I want to do with my life is work
