2022-12-12 04:20:45 +0000 UTCI don’t understand why he didn’t go into the store when nobody was inside to steal? He had a key, and could come and go whenever he wanted. Why not go in when it’s empty?
2022-12-12 01:09:32 +0000 UTCThere's a Toys R Us in my hometown in Canada! And also the Taylor Swift reference omg Payton
