ReplyDeleteSend Kyle back to jail.
ReplyDeleteWas there a file in the cake?
ReplyDeleteNo, Lube.
ReplyDeleteTo make KJ's stay as the ward of the state nicer.
Personally, I prefer jazz. Not the smooth kind though.
ReplyDeleteApparently TKC prefers jizz. Why else would he promote the likes of KJ, Alonzo, And Craig.
ReplyDeleteIs that guy just going to lay around in his gallery?
ReplyDeleteRadkeu = Kings X on steroids
ReplyDeleteI hope Mark Allen has investors with money to lose.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
A black mother had the good sense to home school her children as so not to grow up into the thug life. Good for her. This is a proud moment.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Kyle.
ReplyDeleteInstead of "Stay out of jail", how about "Don't be such a nigger"??
ReplyDeleteRadkey's cool, KJ still a douchey richboy, and Mark Allen is a artsy fartsy dork.
ReplyDeleteFill me up Kyle so I can leak all day!!!
ReplyDeleteDesperate pretentious performance art won't pay Westport rent. Can't Allen just go to Crossroads and join the others doing the same thing?
ReplyDeleteFuck KJ
