Seems reasonable.

It was all very passive agressive

My wife (we're on our honeymoon in these pictures) also, baby stego

Zoom in to read this delightful explanation of the 'evidence' for dinosaurs being created with the earth 6000 years ago (spoiler: carbon dating by a 'reputable source' said fossils are 38,000 years old) (?). I promise you, this is pure gold.

Did they ever!

Just like in the bible!

Well? Are you?

Why even have 10 commandments when you can simply follow these 7 rules in life?

Cat tax: this is the majestic Stonk. She roamed the earth 5,000 and also 6,000 years ago.

You took your wife to Woodward, OK to see this for your honeymoon?
