In Response to a Mysoginistic Troll .@sjosiah0 The Internet doesn’t just offer opportunities for misogynistic abuse, you know. Penis enlargers can also be bought discreetly.

She Almost Broke That Record... .@teuchtermac has realised I'm about to break the record for longest period on Twitter without saying 'moron' & clearly wants to scupper me.
