11. My Grandpa was a lot sharper at 89 than fornicate face ever was.

The day before he died Grandpa was more with it than that orange fornicate face has ever been. He was very hard of hearing at the end but he was still mentally sharp right up until he went to sleep for the last time. He had a bit of a temper too but wasn't a blowhard idiot, and unlike fornicate head he actually served in this here country's military.

I despise that orange fornicate.

He reminds me of my nephew when he was 4. cos dem Sep 2018 #1
