Everyone pretends to like wheat until you mention barley. You're unsure whether or not to trust him, but very thankful that you wore a turtle neck. My uncle's favorite pastime was building cars out of noodles. This made him feel like an old-style rootbeer float smells. It isn't true that my mattress is made of cotton candy.
