I’ve been thinking about this for a while: Shortly after I moved to Charlotte, I received my tax rebate check. Because I spent the last whole year working, it was significantly more than I was used to.

Thinking About "Bruno"

dangurewitch: Bruno has some absolutely astonishing and hilarious sequences, and it’s impossible not to admire Sacha Baron Cohen’s sheer unparalleled nerve.
