The D-list is people who have shows on the Animal Planet.”
“The more I’m in an actual war zone, the more it’s just ugly. It’s not cool, it’s not a Toby Keith song, it’s not opening up a can of whoop-ass. It’s just horrible.”“My niece and nephew are here for the weekend. It’s time to act like I like kids.”
