Ow! My Head! But Not For The Same Reason As These Morons
Like a tongue on a pole, let’s stick to the cold theme a little bit longer. I don’t remember ever doing the boil some water, throw it into the sky on a frozen ass day and watch it become snow experiment myself, but I’ve seen it done. It’s kind of neat. And until yesterday, I …
