Volume VI: Chicks Who Think They're Fat
Do you ever find yourself listening to hideous rap music and thinking “Holy shit, this illiterate-sounding fool is right!!”? It happened to me. Don’t tell anyone; I’m kind of embarrassed about it. Anyhow, the chorus of the song was “Oh, you fancy huh”. And the lyrics I agreed with went as follows:
