@Outsideness I thought it was funny that @officialmcafee had a video where he was doing cocaine. I decided to figure out why he was able to do it without addiction despite his high level of alcohol use. Turns out I may have been exactly right. https://t.co/WvDZtjdDWi

I was told during my SAT prep class that the minor mistakes I was making was like "farting in front of the president". I have no idea what that means, but I thought it would be funny if I could get paid to fart for a king once. It's not about the money.🃏https://t.co/A7eln55Z6x
