Praise Jesus, especially when it's sunny outside because Jesus would totally be cool with you praising while you get a nice tan.

There's a car wash in the city with a sign stating "Keep Limp!".

I have a feeling they meant "Fique Limpo!" (keep clean).

Thou, teaching thrift, thyselfe couldst never thrive.
So, like the whetstone, many men are wont
To sharpen others, when themselves are blunt."

Anyone who has any kind of opinion fucking disgusts me.
