and talking about Jimmy Buffett.
Additionally, its got presents that dad probably should have consulted mom about before he bought them.
Oh, my dog balls life!
Leslie Jones then comes on to say that, at 51, she is retiring from sex.
Nobody wants an old bitch who can no longer perform her patented sex move.
It may not cover a lot of ground, but as usual, Jones sells it.
For reference, he lets everyone see what 100 pounds of cocaine looks like: Steven Tyler.
This description doesnt quite do it justice, but the character is well observed.

With two more weeks to go before a holiday break, theres surely a better show ahead.
Next up?Aquamanstar Jason Momoa.
