Just because one ¡diot bearing the name messed up doesn't mean you should condemn the name. There are other people bearing the name for God's sake. So since you are obviosly jobless, go and get a life. Your mates are married with children and here you are wasting away. Old cargo. B¡tch. Brainless Maggot. Mutula. In short your brain size is negligible. ¡diot
