Level 8 · 8 mo agoYES the Curico error is accurate! The pilot thought they were clear but turned into the mountains 😭

Level 10 · 9 mo agoComparing eating bodies to communion is absurd. It was just basic survival instinct and nothing holy.

Level 4 · 9 mo agoGrim story, but fair play to them! If I was stuck up there with Michael Keane, I’d probably eat him on the first day just to make sure he couldn't cost us a clean sheet. Proper warriors these lads.
