“I choose you today,” she said. Later she tossed the bouquet to friends and downed two shots of whiskey, one for herself and one for herself. She had planned the event for weeks, sending invitations, finding the perfect dress, writing her vows, buying rosé and fresh baguettes and fruit tarts from a French bakery.

I doubt that any self-respecting cat would want anything to do with these idiots.

I can’t help wondering what Cosmo articles are about, like, “Give yourself GALACTIC orgasms without a partner!!”

Cosmo: an insipid, puerile publication for female Low Info mouth breathers consumed with fitting in with other Low Info female mouth breathers.

After perusing Cosmo at 12 I lost a lot of respect for women.

As Woody Allen said, “don’t knock masturbation, at least it’s sex with someone you love”.
