| 0:10.8 | to go off of. One is just what you all call yourself papayas. The next one is based on our number one |
| 0:18.4 | review that we've ever gotten that this show has nothing about papayas |
| 0:22.6 | in it. It's just filled with lady crap. So of course, we came out with a little tiny zip bag as |
