Laura Got Married!!! And We Solved the 100 Men vs. 1 Gorilla Debate
Laura got married!!! It was dino-themed. There was a tornado. There was an armadillo. A porta potty flew down the street. Then we all boarded a party barge captained by a lesbian named SugarTits. Somehow, that’s just the first five minutes of this episode. We also dive into the 100 men vs. 1 gorilla debate, Kylie Jenner casually dropping her boob job recipe, Lindsay Lohan pretending her facelift was just chia seeds, and Bethenny Frankel surviving on tuna and vibes. Oh, and there’s a new sea creature that looks exactly like a vagina. Science! Follow us on...
