- Coffee was once considered satanic in Europe because the women thought it made their men impotent. But when Pope Clement VIII tasted it for the first time, he moved for its acceptance, declaring it delicious & equipped that it should be baptized.Does anyone have any random fun facts about a very niche subject.

- & it is not because you are stoic like Zeno. You can't speak through fans because you don't have them. Disses don't build fanbase, hits do. Classic albums do.

- Replying to @OwenKeller950M3 @TooMuchGravitas and 2 othersThat means your head is sitting on your neck for fancy & you exist only because God needed your mother to stop disturbing him for a child. You are small. You are empty. Leave the internet & go be useful with your life.

- Replying to @TN19hoo and @PxxdwskiiiYamal was the highest goal contributor at the last euros. Doue was dancing galala somewhere in Senegal.
- Like yourself when Cassava Republic instructed you to bash Adichie online & you gladly obliged. It failed to create the fanfare you anticipated so you reverted to taking subtle shots. John please stop waxing lyrical about morality, you are not clean. Go and sit down.
