To the fucking idiots at the DQ gate: you ain’t worth shit, that’s why you abuse us. Fucking low lives.
Getting ready for the birthday party

I have mixed feelings about this match: happy to see Majed finally honored, sad it took them 15 years to do it

On my way to the train station to pick up my brother

Overheard in KSU: “اللي تبي تسوق تتحمل اللي يجيها”. So much for hope in the younger generation, I guess.
