    Who is conceited enough to actually AGREE to be in this feature? Doesn’t this guy realize that he’s coming across like a vain trendoid? Save these citizens from themselves, CP.

  2. Man Says:

    Pass me the bong, vagabond dandy.

  3. you have to be kidding Says:

    He’s just like what you would get if you set the dial on a serial rapist time machine to 1970
