Feb 07, 2007 23:43

Found this thread on stripperweb, and had to post the ones that I, at least, have done at one point or another...either that or the ones that are just soooo funny! Oh, and for the record, for those who may not know already, I don't have the typical real name/stage name problems- it's just soo much easier just to be Christy 24/7, ya know?
