None of This Would Have Happened If Prince Were Alive

Like, us telling her to go potty is another way the man is keeping her down.”

Jerry has a long, wooden fence, most likely to be blown over in an hour, separating his property from my mother’s. Which makes me wonder how their trysts occurred, mainly if my mother made this Coastal Walk of Shame or if she scrambled over the rocks that buffer the water along the coast. It’s awkward to dwell upon and you’re sure as shit I’m doing it.

It seemed like with the second one, my belly and boobs exploded right after the plus sign showed up on the test. They were like, this isn’t our first rodeo.

It’s about this giraffe named Gerald who can’t really dance at the jungle party and all the other animals are dicks to him, especially the lions, and then he figures out that he needs to find the right song and dance if he’s feeling it and the other animals can just fuck off. Anyway. That’s what Taylor Swift makes me think of. Gerald. So good for her. Dance your heart out, Taylor Swift.”
