Back when I was a kid, I really hated when old people started sentences with “Back when I was a kid.” Now that I’m old, I start at least 66.67 percent of my sentences with this phrase and I don’t care what

If anyone can find a house in Forks that doesn’t have at least one pair of romeos inside, I will give you the entire contents of my savings
