it's all one classic after the next. it's a greatest hits album. adam and eve, cain and abel, noahs flood, now babel. didn't know it was this compact. all killer no filler.

Exodus is the same.

[sadmanbarty]

My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes

[sadmanbarty]

And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee

kings shall come out of thee is a brilinat way to describe an orgasm. one of those proper triumphant ones. where you feel all muscular and like a sex god. herculean orgasm.

 

[Corpsey]

[sadmanbarty]

But somehow Barty transcends all rules.
