We’ll have to savor [GTA 6] as we probably won’t see GTA 7 until 2040 at this rate…

Though it’s looking like we won’t be seeing these two members of the Avengers Endgame cast in a Marvel movie together again, we got a different type of reunion between the two.

Can you imagine the children [Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens] will produce?
Bagging an incredibly beautiful girlfriend or wife isn’t difficult when your athletic prowess is on display as an NFL superstar. When the term WAG is thrown around, some may ask, “What is a WAG,” but it’s simply an acronym used to reference girlfriends and wives of professional sportsmen.

I’m just happy my favorite of the Kardashian-Jenner clan made the list this year…
Forbes 30 Under 30 2023 has been published again, and to my surprise (and everyone else's who knows me), I was not included. Maybe next year a new category will be added to recognize those of us who “chill the hardest,” and then I'll get some recognition. Until then, I'll have to content myself with spreading the word about all those who did manage to make it on the coveted list.

If you’re offended by my crude comments, I’d like to apologize to absolutely nobody…
