One time I was giving a lecture on biometric devices. I meant to say “retinal scan” but instead said “re**al scan”, which is an entirely different part of the body, as you may be aware. I had to dismiss the class early. I think I’ve been permanently slighted red tinted ever since.

The first thing that I saw - has gramps been asleep for 30 years?

And Obama was president in reverse it seems… for a negative 2 years.

Yeah, it wasn’t naked women, it was naked dudes.
