 Tegan Zayne and Spencer Whitman play Navy seamen in this one. You probably want to start making bad jokes. I can’t because I was too distracted from watching the teaser. Because it included moves like this:

 That’s Spencer’s giant cock effortlessly sliding into Tegan’s more than receptive butthole. It’s a boiler room flip-fuck fiesta with these two. And they are FEELING it. Check out their facial expressions as cock touches soul!

Tegan’s prostate is TAPPED.

Song of the Day: 'Woman Is the N-Word of the World' by John Lennon

From: kenneth in the (212)

Pardon his French, but he's singing what my mother has been preaching since I was a small child and the courts told her to stop being "hysterical" for firmly explaining why she wanted to keep us safe from our alcoholic father. There can only be one reason the media normalized Donald Trump and demonized Hillary Clinton. And the worst part? Exit polls reveal white women voted for Trump like gangbusters, which is part battered-wife syndrome (not their fault, but please get help) and part "women hate other women" phenomenon (totally your fault -- please get help to figure out why you like to drag each other down).

Remember Your Best Jack Sesh With Hot Twink Cum Shot

From: Fleshbot

Today's sexy twink really knows how to treat his big dong right, and could teach us a thing or two about loving ourselves. But not like in a Dove commercial. It's more like actually taking care of your dick the way it deserves, until it rewards you with a satisfying batter splatter that coats your stomach! Remember back to your teen years, when "the world was new" as Cat Stevens what probably talking about, and you actually had the energy and concentration to make jacking off an event instead of a part of the daily grind. There's your homework for the weekend! Courtesy of Cat Stevens. IDK what that fuck I'm talking about.
