I don't know. The fact that he never got AIDS, only HIV, suggests that maybe indeed it was a magic Johnson.
Didn’t he inject dollar bills into his veins to prevent it? Saw that in a documentary called South Park
Anyone else getting Old El Paso vibes from the colour scheme?
Hulk Hogan also wasted his on wrestling instead of showing "skills" on a proper manner.
By being racist and against worker rights?
Dude lived a pornstar life and then he cured AIDS.
The cure is money
Who is down to raw dog Magic Johnson?
If someone has undetectable HIV, does that mean they can't get reinfected? Or new HIV?
Only if their partner is also undetectable.
Enough people that he got AIDS?
Randy Johnson's name and nickname were ideal porn names as well. His nickname being The Big Unit
He also obliterated a bird unlucky enough to cross the path of his fastball on live TV, which is totally unrelated but a fact that needs to live in more people’s minds like it does mine.
what i love about The Big Unit is that that, his most iconic moment, is something he uses to promote his brand as a wildlife photographer because he feels so wracked with guilt that a bird died because of him. it's not anything he had any control over. but he refuses to let that bird have died in vain. so now he's the wildlife photographer who accidentally exploded a bird once.
the world needs more men like Randy Johnson. skilled enough to be absolutely terrifying but humble enough to be heartbroken to have killed a bird
how did they score that pitch anyways?
it counted towards his pitch count but not against or for the batter
that was kind of them. I would Need A Minute even if it were just a pigeon or seagull. Not a starling or sparrow though fuck those.
I did not know that. You have really put a ribbon and a bow on that story for me, thank you.
The greatest pitch ever thrown
I'm pretty sure he used this name in that sort of way more than a few times.
Meat spins intensifies.
Meat spin intensified by design, that's why it counted up!
Yeah wasn't he the one who got AIDS because of all of his sexual promiscuity in his prime?
I mean that's not really a causitive link. He could have gotten aids without being promiscuous, but yes he was also extremely promiscuous.
Oh it was clearly known that his AIDS was a result of promiscuity and he did not deny that. And it wasn't from gay butt sex either because he never rolled that way. It was from some unidentified promiscuous woman.
The "TRUCK YARD" sign is the Spongbob font. It's the first, and only thing I can see now!
One day there will be a cricket player named Godzilla's Shlong and we'll all say the same thing
wesley treat made a larger version of this truck yard sign for the owner on his youtube channel.
