RIP

The Harmony Hotel gets some bad reviews on Trip Advisor. Mostly it's to do with the $50 deposit. On person said that when you check out, they check the towels for stains, and if there is a stain, you have to pay for it.* I wonder if they keep the deposit when someone dies.








* sexpats be advised, if you're staying at the Harmony Hotel, and you want to wipe your cock, use the curtain.

Grr, condemnation!

First, RIP. Drug addiction affects many, many people.

Not everyone chases the dragon and makes it out alive. Condolences.

However, and this is where I may get some condemnation, but does that unfortunate passport photo make him look, uh, intoxicated?

That's a hard, final lesson learned way too fast.
Melvin Udall: Never, never, interrupt me, okay?

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.

Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.
