I have never senced a power so sinister as a dyke with facial hair. It took alot of convincing to rebuild ballast pressure in the mighty Cum-Tap. Oh mmmm yeah, just a little more. I can feel it.I'm about to --- Nooooooooo! Noooo God nooooooo! Mercy!!! You chubizing dykes! From my parents' basement, I stab at thee bull dykes!
