I once saw an ad for a website at a a horse show that said it was a website for horse lovers. It turned out that “lovers” was a verb and not an adjective.

I loved this channel years ago, now they have about ten channels pumping out videos like a factory, it stinks of greed and think how many smaller creators that have failed to grow due to this lot shotgunning videos on every single topic or story imaginable. I do appreciate the free entertainment over the years so thanks for that.

I delivered some Rolls-Royces to Scott Rosthstein. He tipped me over $1000 every time! I noticed when I was at his house that the name of his boat was "Outta be a Law." Also whenever a house near him came up for sale he bought it, rented the house, but kept the garage space for himself.
