yes, 20 years is an oldie

Why don't you just use your monstrous penis as your greatsword instead? It seems like a waste to train with a metal blade when you've got one in your pants.

Because it's not made out of metal, and no matter how hard it gets it won't be able to beat a sharp metal sword.

Keep up, Bralia. This is exam material.

You misunderstand me, Esty, I certainly know a penis can't be used to cut, but its use as a heavy blunt object can't be ignored. Trust me, I know.

Hmm, perhaps.

In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

They're zippy, reliable and quite gas friendly for their size. I'll be upgrading soon, though. My poor girl is dying on me.

Pah, swords. The elegance of ballistic weaponry or just the classic crossbow is that you can dispose of enemies before they even come close.
