An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
For those who have seen me type who have wondered just how fast I am… I was “inspired” to take an online test when a friend of mine did. Hate to say it Justin, but… I kicked your butt. Actually I should take the test again, because the browser crapped out at the beginning and […]
