The Shank

That's right. For the tonight's beat-down, we're pulling out the shank. we've stacked up quite a bit of posts since the last time so we better go ahead and do it now before it gets out of hand. Now, first thing's fucking last. To all the Dallasites, if you're looking for something to do tonight, with whiskey, then you need to make it to

Here's an update on this critically endangered creature.

"Consensus depends on who wins the debate"

We got caught up in the writing moment and found that our failure can translate into a writing voice.
