And when asked about why there's a roll of toilet paper on the bed, she explained, "Oh, the toilet's broken so we've gotta do our business out in the backyard until Dan's paycheck comes in next week and we can have the plumber come out. But ya know, this is God's will I guess. What would Jesus do, right? HAHAHAHAHAHA. " While behind her, her husband pantomimes taking out a gun and shooting himself in the head.

Love it.

He just likes to perform cunnilingus on chipmunks. In the privacy of his own home. While he wanks into his hat.

And that is why he is smiling.

You can say that again, Jonmc.
