So I went out for sushi last night. We went to a place with running sushi (only, not so much sushi running on it, ahem).

Those guys deserved to be punched in the mouth and she deserves to have her head stuffed in a toilet. I guess some people never grow out of high school. Only very insecure people do that kind of crap to build...
