I hope Rick Santorum accidentally washes his favorite wool blazer when he decides to do laundry drunk.
I hope Rick Santorum goes to fart in the car as he’s driving away from an epic Sam’s Club run but right after he’s pulled into the on-ramp he realizes there was some poop in the fart and then he gets stuck in traffic for 45 minutes with just slightly poopy underpants.
I hope Rick Santorum goes to step into his sandals when getting out of a hammock but the sandal slides away at the last minute and so he steps on a claw hair clip and gets out of the hammock all awkwardly as a result.

I realize that posthumously baptizing people is a step beyond, but you all realize that millions of assholes pray for your heathen souls, some of you even specifically, all over the world every Sunday, right? Yeah, it’s arrogant as fuck, but it all means the same amount of nothing.

‘So!’ he said, at length, and it came as a complete surprise to me that fellows ever really do say ‘So!’ I had always thought it was just a thing you read in books. Like ‘Quotha!’ I mean to say, or ‘Odds bodikins!’ or even ‘Eh ba goom!’
