Two destructive Anthonys would have been insupportable.

That's why you'll never see a hurricane hit the US called Sha'nequa or D'various.

I thought cyclones were always named after women, for obvious reasons.

I spotted Queeri. The only one with an orange hi Vis.

He's a star, almost a super hero some would say(himself not me).

Hope everything is ok for you if you're in the locale.

You should make a sub called QueeriQuest, where you just make up exciting bs posts around his mundane existence.

That's actually a really good idea, we could all have such a laugh with that, a little like find Waldo etc.

That would give him too much attention though and he's enough of an attention whore!.

Dude you are 100% correct - "where you just make up exciting bs posts around his mundane existence" - but must you embarrass me in front of the bros?

I hopee the cyclone drops a pallet of cinderblocks on Queeri's head
