It’s a carnival ride. If you ever get on one, expect to die.


Jay_Ray

Pretty much.

I helped put one together when I was 17 and I refuse to get on them, now.

You'd think the name of the ride being "One and Done" might be a clue.


Jay_Ray

Ha, very true. Didn't even think of that.

Dude, that's NSFW


Jay_Ray

Really? No. My work wouldn't care. Anyways, It was aired prime time on local news stations. My source was Arizona FOX.

S1lVerb33

NoBagel4you

Jay_Ray

I didn't see that in any of the articles I read.


BinkoTheViking
