Doar pentru ca s-a vazut bolnava, Nu mai era in stare sa dea, Sa produca, sa imparta, O fabrica s-a tot gandit, Dar s-a oprit.

So this video has been going around since Billo’s show on Tuesday, in which he defended JC Penney for hiring Ellen DeGeneres as their spokesperson. I initially thought, “Well.
