    Flying elephants are one thing, but let’s not be ridiculous.

  • The Hangover

    Essentially an epic extension of the comedic penis' penetration into the mainstream

Almost tolerable
Consistently annoying
Will require therapy after viewing
As good as a poke in the eye with a sharp stick

Proof that Jesus died in vain.
