Heh. Germans always take things a little too far. You ever notice that?

No more wit and wisdom from Sarcazmo for you, you’ve used up your quota.

This is a little like being kicked out of the executive lounge. It’s embarrassing for the both of us....

I am American but you are a Sarcazhole.
All your shots were wide misses including vaccines.
I haven’t even posted about covid since Delta.
That’s over a year ago.
Put some ice on your EPIC Butthurt, Sarcazhole.
