Hi, we're gonna steal your money, and then we're gonna buy some bling and become super popular; Plastic surgery, liposuction, anal bleaching , flap reduction, pimps, ho's, rides, private jets, wireless systems, in-ear-virtual-simulation, stage slaves, reality tv shows... These will be mere novelties to us my friends.
Because in this day and age it's okay to be shameless, guys; degrade, betray and steal from those closest to you.
But most importantly kids: Don't forget to kiss Big Brothers ass.
