Mine are usually like two or three liners. <br /><br />Here's a few oners that I found though.<br /><br />"Even as the “s” of ass is still sliding from between my teeth, the nozzle end of the gun is pressed firmly against my forehead." <br /><br />"I open my eyes just in time to see Pie Face collapse and then disappear as if he was the wicked witch and Dorothy had just come by with a bucket of water."<br /><br />"Despite the fact that the braces I received at age twelve were forcibly removed only two months into wearing them for non-payment– I still totally kick his ass in the fake smile contest." <br /><br />"IHOP is a good place to stop when you’re running for your life." <br /><br />"Count on me to screw up my first attempt at a completely unselfish act… maybe I should have started with throwing a few pennies in the Salvation Army bucket at Christmas, just for practice, instead of skipping straight to martyrdom."<br /><br />Yeah, mine are kind of on the longer side.

Needed him. Barely knew him. <br /><br />*I drank in the sweetness of his caress, allowing it to consume me. <br /><br />There you go....:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
