A group of young hipsters flocked to a local natural wine bar to see one of NYC’s signature events–a rat runway show. After a few sips of something they swear is “funky but still drinkable,” it was time.

Experts are still looking into a way in which the above can be avoided while the female body takes part in repopulation. While working to grow human bones, flesh, and organs inside of the uterus please avoid stretched skin, weight gain, swollen anything, and sagging. But do create a perfect offspring.
