I’m looking forward to the day when there is an obituary on the front page of the paper.
Junior: he was never truly loved by his parents and he’s never going to love you.
$5.49/gallon for gas earlier today. So much winning.

No obituary on the front page of the paper today. Sad.

He drew the biggest crowds ever yesterday on every continent.
