NY Assembly Bans Novelty Lighters (Seriously?)

Wes Styles — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 13:05:01 +0000

As the New York Assembly closed down for the summer several items sat in front of them for voting. One of them included the legalization of professional Mixed Martial Arts fighting (UFC) in the state; that was not approved. Another bill in front of them, that seemed more important, to ban novelty lighters in the state, did pass though.

Adams — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:23:06 +0000

Times are tough these days. Tough on the pocketbook. Tough in general. Times are also tough with regards to large breasted ladies practicing procreation.

Picture cartons of juice, condoms, yeast, and god knows what else all displayed on a table. While doing that, think about how awesome (sarcasm) you would feel the next day after getting crunk on what seems like a s--- ton of homemade prison booze.
