And no, my cock doesn’t get a say in the matter, thank you very much. It has no business noticing the kid’s pretty pink mouth in the first place, and it for damn sure shouldn’t be getting this excited about his total failure to resist arrest.CHARLIE: Getting stopped by a super hot cop in the middle of the desert after stealing my stupid, lying, cheating, tiny-dicked asshole of an ex-boyfriend’s car is definitely the highlight of my day.
