Oh I'm sorry. Did I leave a sign out where it said "if you need a way to comment without contributing to conversation while boosting your irrelevant ego" out somewhere? My bad. I need to make sure I don't have that sign displayed anymore

"give your head a shake", lol, i mean, what, who says things like that outside a kindergarten playground, first graders would be mortified saying something that useless, toothless, banal, and they'd be mocked endlessly. "give your head a shake" for fucks sake, the man's an worldender, give your balls a tug eh

I'm sorry I couldn't hear you over the celebration of some canadian telling the fascist to "shake his head"

No need to listen. Just type. Not my problem there's bullshit going on around you

You sound like Trump. lol. You’re the best head shaker.

And you sound like someone who's perpetually on the internet that gets their only validation by rage bating. Funny where life takes us isn't it?
