The cuck, does he really want to fight me? What a f****** c***. Ian Garry is such a f****** c**t. When you guys interview him, do you ever ask him what are you going to do when she’s 60 and you’re 40? Are you allowed to f*** other women? God, I hate that f****** guy. I hate that f****** guy so much.
