Dawn Of The Creep

Donald Trump, Hairy Wankstain, Bill O'Reilly, James Toback, Brett Ratner, Roy Moore, Kevin Spacey, Dustin Hoffman, Ben Affleck (and brother) George H .W. Bush, Charlie Rose, CK Louis, Al Franken several British politicians and many more have been accused of sexual harassment.  

The Brits already went through the BBC and anyone that was on TV in the 70's and 80's but molesting people seems to be a popular past time and there are sooo many more creeps to be uncovered. 

Like slavery, black face and homosexuality being illegal the PC brigade strikes again to spoil things for us white straight males. Now you can't even force yourself onto a woman without her telling the world 20 years later ... what the fuck?

Who isn't in the mood for sex with a stranger after a funeral? It's Bond FFS!!!  

For decades movies have shown us a hesitant female that only needed a forced kiss from the male lead in order to fall in love with him. We blokes aren't too bright ... you mean that's not how things are? Next you'll tell me one punch doesn't knock everyone out or it's not so easy to shoot someone without aiming.

Young women still fall for older guys right? That is one movie cliche I refuse to give up on! Lost in Translation needs a very graphic Johansson/Murray sex scene in my opinion. 

I don't have time to bleed I do have time to breed

Older, ugly fat men in positions of power seems to be a common thread. Men whose ego needs stroked and their penis' too. Wanking and open bathrobes also seems to be a thing.

Why anyone would think this would be a turn on I don't know

If accused you can deny it, settle out of court or surprise people by owning up and getting help. You can claim you thought walking about with your dick out was something the other party wanted or to really make people scratch their heads you can come out of the closet at the same time ... even though you kinda did that in the 90's.

You had better not be a perv Plummer, tons more movies to re-do

Hey sorry for trying to molest you I was drunk but in other news I'm gay! It's bad when the guy who has been in graphic shows like The Walking Dead and The Punisher says how creeped out he was by Spacey during the filming of Baby Driver.

With all the perverts out there on the road to rape you'd think that all men do this. Strange enough there are a few men that have never grabbed a non-consensual arse or boob. There are also men that can get drunk and not try to force themselves onto others. Shocking right?

Nothing to do with not being a real man that takes what they want because that isn't being a real man.

A real man respects others. A real man defends the weak, vulnerable and anyone else that needs it. A real man doesn't use his position or power to coerce others into doing something they don't want to do. A real man doesn't do stuff for praise. A real man never hits a woman and would only ever retaliate against a woman if it's to defend himself or others if there is no other option.     

At the end of their first movies Thor and Captain America are what real men should be

A real man also destroys his enemies and drinks from their skulls. He can bounce children on his knee sing the songs to Frozen and still be a real man because it's about honour and integrity, not what others say you should be. You don't need super powers or to have your hammer hanging out of your bathrobe when someone hot enters the room. 

Like most things in life being a real man or being a douchebag is a choice. Life only makes you into something if you allow it to. You may not have the choice of being a victim but you don't have to let it define who you are. 

Doing a honk honk prank on a sleeping woman is inappropriate. Al Franken I do not believe is in the same league as Hairy Wankstain or Toback. The world of comedy can be crass in order to get the funny but he isn't even in the same league as CK Lewis who can be inappropriately funny though not so funny when he's harassing women.

Leeann Tweeden used this photo as proof and says Franken forced a kiss onto her during a rehearsal. The photo is wrong, sure she has a flak jacket on and he isn't touching her but it's wrong. Like shaving and drawing on someone who falls asleep at a party. Different levels of what is acceptable. Hey they were drunk if they fell asleep they were asking for it. 

Yeah that argument can't really be used there if it isn't acceptable for rape. Like I said different levels of acceptability and most rapists don't rape straight away they lead up and escalate their behavior with other things they can get away with.

In a culture in which stag nights and hen nights are often used to belittle someone or else it's not a good night ... what the fuck?  It's like being given permission to bully and people don't seem to need much encouragement do they? How is smashing a wedding cake in someone's face a sign of love? 

Like guiding the bride's hand cutting the cake the pushing the cake into her face it is all to do with male dominance and her submissiveness ... yeah all good fun if you don't think about it. 

Thanks to a culture in which friends can easily turn into tormentors Old Knudsen has issues with falling asleep in public places. You should be able to trust the people around you when you sleep. 

Tweeden was rightly annoyed by the picture as who likes others laughing at you when you aren't in on the joke? 

That was in 2006 but the problem I have is that Franken was doing the same skit with Karri Kathleen Turner from 2003 on wards on other USO tours. 

Leeann Tweeden awake

The shows are crude, crass, sexual and full of innuendo, all the stuff the fighting (male) soldier wants. It's a matter of reminding them what they are fighting for which is why you always get the hotties along side of Bob Hope. 

 When you are famous they'll let you do anything

Leeann Tweeden who is often on Fox Sports went after Franken saying that the #MeToo gave her courage. He apologized for the photo and says he remembers the rehearsal differently. She has accepted his apology. 

Not intending to belittle how she feels I have to mention that a forced kiss and getting pushed off was in the act. There are references to boob exams and soldiers are brought up on stage to kiss the eye candy after Franken has his kiss, the joke is on Franken for being too gross to kiss.

She said that he wrote the (3 year-old) skit with her in mind in 2006 and probably only wrote it so he could kiss her. Full of yourself much? It's like she remembers the skit but remembers it as reality. Is there Meth given out in the Fox news hospitality room? I would not be surprised. 

This was her introducing him

There is a video of Tweeden pretending to kiss Robin Williams then patting him on the butt. What I'm saying is that the crude behaviour of a USO tour can be taken out of context and that having a vagina does not shield you from criticism.

You should lean towards believing the accuser but don't do it blindly. Never forgo critical thinking in favour of knee jerk reaction.
Old Knudsen doesn't support people based on what they are such as Republican or Democrat but if they do shite things he judges them on that. I was more disappointed that anything in Franken as I thought he was better than that. 

Franken gives Republicans a hard time and holds the likes of lying racist Jeff Sessions to account and Tweeden is on Fox which is on speed dial to the White House.

After looking at everything I call it sexual pranks rather than sexual predator with Franken and that Tweeden was in on it but then redrew the line at some point I don't know if there were other reasons. 

She was one of the the tits and ass people for the tour and yes there were cheerleaders and short shorts too. The cheer leaders were way better than Tweedon BTW no story there????

Unlike everyone else listed at the beginning of the post Franken has had women he's worked with for years speak up for him. Unless there is any new startling evidence or 8 more accusers I don't think Franken deserves to be on the list. 

Hillary Loves Big Cock

I love a bit of rough, I just grab em by the balls. 

Hillary was caught bragging to another woman about how she goes up to a man she likes and just grabs their balls. "I always have mints in case I have to tongue a boy toy.  I can't help but kiss attractive men and when you're famous like me they let you."

She defended her words by saying the old person she was 11 years ago is not the old person she is today and besides it was just girl talk. 

When it was suggested that she couldn't satisfy Bill so how could she satisfy America? She said, "I can satisfy America all day long, I'll totally fuck this place good an hard. My cunt is huge, Bill loves it, look at my hands, you know what they say ... am I right, am I right? ... gaping void, you don't touch the sides."   

She then went on to explain how great her sex life was and Bill only messed with the intern because she herself had given up cigars. Bill didn't like her dripping on them with her love juice anyways. No one likes soggy cigars that taste like minge.

Hillary has long expressed a respect for the troops .... except the failures that died, got wounded or got caught. She has visited many military bases and has watched Saving Private Ryan on the big screen and feels as if she has served. 

As a girl she tried joining NASA but failed because you don't need sandwiches in space. She tried then to join the police but failed the psych evaluation (too unstable) so she became a lawyer. 

She recently caused mild outrage when she suggested reopening the 22 year old case of Susan Smith. Smith murdered her two children by putting her car into a lake with the kids in the back and blamed it on black car jackers. 

Hillary has demanded we find some black men and put them in prison instead of white middle class Smith ... truth? evidence? proof? whatever. Hillary has even put out reward posters for two black young males wearing hoodies.

While Secretary of State she was famous for her wild stripper parties. She would often go into the changing rooms unannounced just to get an eyeful and no one could do anything about it. Her employees have said how she'll cup their balls or just start kissing them. She's the boss so whatever. If she sees a hunk on a plane or anywhere else he is fair game for Hillary. They should be grateful and flattered.

While Hillary has never had a son, when around those who have she's mentioned what great bodies they had and how she'd totally date the fuck out of them. There's nothing wrong with it, it's all a part of her charm. She loves children so much and made sure to kiss Chelsea everyday as she was growing up. She still loves to kiss her. 

I think she is the kind of role model the US needs..... oh wait, it was him that did this pervy shit.  Feel free to continue to make excuses for him or by ignoring it or by just saying, "put her in jail" it saves on the thinking.     

  

How To Dismiss And Belittle Victims Of Sexual Abuse

It's a well known fact that if a person is famous the normal laws of society do not apply to them. When women come forward and claim they've been abused well who are you going to believe? They who are basically nobodys or yer favourite jumper wearing funny guy?

 Bill Cosby's victims have reached the 48 mark. 

Why wait 20 plus years to come forward? yeah they must be lying, probably after money and attention. I know that when I want to be in the public glare I always make up a story in which I've been degraded and abused.   

Every fucken time when some woman comes forward there are people that dismiss her and stand firm with the accused. May be there have been a 1 in a 500 cases in which a man was falsely accused of rape that sticks in the minds of people and so subconscious bias comes into play. Like how every black guy shot by the police are innocent and unarmed. Some are but a lot of times the fact he had a gun just gets ignored now. 

Yeah, as if a man has ever raped or abused a woman, why do you lie? 

 

 

Look at Jimmy Savile. Knighted by the Pope and the Queen, ran marathons for charity, had hit TV shows where he made the dreams of children cum true, volunteered at a children's hospital ... even having his own room there. He was a national treasure. When he died people dressed up as him in mourning. 

Turns out he abused 72 people, raping 8 of them including an 8 year-old. The victims had to wait until he was dead before coming out because he was rich, had high up connections and who would listen to someone with no proof about a 40 year-old abuse claim? .... it was 40 years ago, get over it you money grabber. 

His death had people coming forward and shone a light on other abusing national treasures that regularly performed for the Queen such as Rolf Harris and anyone else that werked for the BBC in the 70's and 80's. 

Hollywood favourite Johnny Depp liked to get wasted and throw things at his wife. Remember the apology video when they ignored the laws of the common people and took their dogs to Austraila? Amber Heard did most of the talking, I reckon Depp made her so he wouldn't look weak. 

When she came forward with the abuse a lot of people said she was after his money. When she got the $7 million divorce settlement she gave it to charity.   Oh that doesn't fit with the narrative? .. I'm so sorry.  

Why is it so hard for people to believe that Trump is a sexual predator? His own voice says what he likes to do .... grab em by the pussy. What real man says that? Even in a pretend macho guys talking setting? Old Knudsen has been in macho guy talk settings and has never spoken like that. I was in the army for fucks sake, you can't get much more macho than that. 

I bet these two blokes can fight like fuck. 

Sure a Hollywood bus with Billy Bush is very macho and doesn't compare to 40 odd guys with guns living in close confines. 

Trump has constantly shown his misogyny, he hosted beauty pageants for fucks sake. That's like Savile having his own room at a children's hospital. He bragged about being able to walk into changing rooms, even during the teen pageants with underage girls.

Go by body language, look at the gif. Why do women always hold him at arms length and are hesitant to kiss him? Even his own daughters. Maybe it's the patting lower down which signifies sexual dominance, you wouldn't even pat a child down there. 

                              Trump meeting a casual acquaintance ... no wait, that's his wife. 

    

The women that have come forward about Trump probably didn't think they would be taken seriously. Right now people are claiming alsorts of things such as they work for Hillary Clinton. Wow, she employs so many people, far more than Trump.

Hillary employs Donald Trump and has hired him to trick the GOP because he's such a mastermind at deception. She also employs all those media outlets and assassins that kill off anyone that goes to testify against her .... though all the women Bill has allegedly raped etc are all alive. She also employs women to come forward and be denounced and belittled claiming abuse.  

Real men interrupt women, maybe she just shouldn't be allowed to speak.

Now that you say that out loud it doesn't sound crazy at all, no, it sounds fucken cray cray. I could poke so many holes in those things that Hillary is supposed to have done but why should I? I'll just say that she should be put into prison for deleting e-mails .... like the 20 thousand the Bush admin deleted but lets ignore that. She should also be put into prison because 4 Americans died in Benghazi ... cos they are far more important than the 4 thousand that died in Iraq. 

It's almost as if people who are not female are trying to make an example out of her. 

The US is free and progressive ... well it was getting there in the 60's but all that has stalled. Thank gential exposing JFK killing LBJ for that. 

The UK had a female leader in the 80's and has three right now, many other nations including what would be described as Muslim cuntries have had or have female leaders. Germany, Australia all went with the minge, even butt fuck Catholic oppressed Ireland had a female president in the 90's. 

The US has gone backwards with sexism and racism. The gheys can marry but lots of people don't like that still and in the US there are always lawyers hired to fight every year against already established laws. It's all connected, you have to tackle bigotry step by step and if you ignore one then the others don't get to be equal either. 

   Shut that bitch up!

   

With Trump you'll have the people just not believing the victims because they dislike Hillary ... yeah fuck the facts or truth when you just don't like someone. 

Trump's male friends are closing ranks. Even though Trump has been caught on tape and now beauty queens are now being asked about their Trump experiences. His buddies like Rudy, Pence and Carson dismiss the claims of course. Chris Christie has said that Trump is an excellent master.

When you let someone talk shit about minorities then you are more likely to let other shite slide too. That means yer a cunt. 

Ben Carson who is also quite unstable called for a woman's mic to be turned off when asked about Trump's abuse claims. Rudy laughed off all accusations but this is the guy that treats staff like shit so he's probably similar to Trump. He denied that Hillary was at ground zero after 9/11 and then photos of them walking together came out. 

 Trump's running mate Pence says he believes Trump's denials ... a very diplomatic answer considering his delivery of said validation showed that he didn't.    

If you hitch your wagon to a candidate and stubbornly stick to them no matter what they do or have done then that shows a lot about you. If you can't change your mind then you can't change anything and that also goes to the whiny Bernie supporters still sulking and hating Hillary. 

 

Trump's supporters don't want to admit that what their straw haired golden orange boy has done is wrong because then that would mean that they are wrong and many people just can't accept that they are the bad guy. 

The US is the bad guy in the Middle East blah blah blah not listening. Support the troops and is that the national anthem playing?  

The abuse victims are coming forward now because may be they feel they can accuse a millionaire with connections and have people on their side who'll believe them. May be they are better patriots than you and can't have an abuser that they've actually met and have seen his true face as President of the US. 

In the US women are told they are free and can be anything they want to be, when they try to achieve that they are quickly told their place. 

 

Julien Blanc The Most Hated Loser

Blue steel and crazy eyes, now that's hawt!

You may have heard of a bloke named Julien Blank, er sorry Blanc who says he's a pick up artist. Well he has been denied a UK visa because he promotes violence on weemen. I didn't know it needed promoting I thought it was a pretty successful concept already. 

The Swiss born American was named the most hated man in the world by Time magazine which probably really annoyed a lot of ISIS fighters, I just beheaded 4 men and 2 children and he gets called the most hated? Assad uses chemical weapons on civilians but yet ..... Obama orders drone strikes on whoever he wants and yet ......

The people of Time really need to get out more as this guy is just a prick, nothing special, you can meet 10 guys like him every day, their mammies told them they were special and waited on them hand and foot.

He can't cook or use a washing machine because that's what weemen do. 

What the fuck is with his name? Julien .... might as well called him wussy boy, no wonder he has weemen issues he's got a gurl's name, just like yon rapist Assange. The 26 year-old boy tells men how to pick up chicks by manipulation because a 26 year-old knows everything. 

"Make Girls BEG To Sleep With You After SHORT-CIRCUITING Their Emotional And Logical Mind” and develop “panty-dropping masculinity with this rock-solid structure to self-generate the powerful emotions girls crave."   

What does he do to the gurls, take away their little pony toy as leverage? Does he posses panty dropping masculinity? He looks like every other little bloke with an over inflated ego. He is quietly spoken and not very believable, you know that when he speaks he's lying. He sounds like psychic medium John Edwards but with less accent and a lot more timid. He doesn't look particularly hunky or attractive, he just looks very very average.

If I put money on the chances of him being a coward and a bully I bet I'd win.

 

He took a chart about domestic abuse and changed it to teach his methods. Smash things to scare her, abuse pets, put her doon and make her think she's crazy, treat her like a servant.  I bet the weemen reading this are gushing away from their trenches of stenches. "OMG finally a man who knows what women want."

While in Japan he demonstrated his techniques such as pushing a woman's head into his crotch, putting his hand around their necks and kissing their necks and ears. The weemen in his videos appear uncomfortable and anxious much like the women from the Sam Pepper videos who reacted with nervous giggling when faced with outright sexual assaults when Pepper grabbed their arses when they weren't looking.  

 A photo Robin Thicke's now ex wife did not appreciate.

It's like a whole race of Blurred lines fellas and some women are stupid enough to encourage them.

When interviewed on CNN about his methods Blanc went on the defensive and tried to appear conciliatory saying that everything was taken out of context, the t-shirt in the first picture, the graph and putting his hand around weemen's necks were all just bad attempts of humour. 

In the graph you can see the bit that says, 'make light of  the abuse ' and 'do not take her concerns seriously' and 'say the abuse didn't happen.' that was the angle he took, the presenter wasn't buying it for one moment, Blanc is very insincere and a bad liar. His moves and methods are textbook abuser.

 

Blue steel look again. 

I'd imagine this is how his seminars go. 'I'm gonna teach you how to be confident with girls and teach you how to confuse and trick the bitches into letting you empty your spunk into them.'

'First you just ask, will you have sex with me? If you ask 500 girls you might get one who really hates themselves or wants to get back at their boyfriend and will say yes.'

'When they say no tell them how pretty their eyes are ... still no? Then make fun of them for being lesbian or stuck up ... still no? Then steal their phone and threaten to send rude texts to their parents ... still no? Then tell her you are going to kill yourself if she doesn't give you head ... still no? Then tell her that you love her and how special she is ... still no? Wow, what a tough one but I've had tougher. 

Grab her throat and tell her she has no choice for you are a wizard of great power and will destroy all of humanity ... still no? Hold onto her leg and cry very loudly and don't let go unless someone threatens to hurt you, use that threat to make her feel sorry for you.'

'If you don't get laid after that then you're actually gay but in denial so give up, and sorry, I don't do refunds.' 

Blanc isn't a man, he's a lowlife boy who has found out he can con desperate forever alone blokes out of their money.  $2,000 (£1,250) for his seminars, for that you'd expect a shoulder rub and a happy ending.  The reason he was banned from the UK is because he might encourage violence towards women. 

He can get banned because he is not a British or EU national so fuck yooouuu! I can't believe that anyone would believe a shit like this. 

Humour and confidence do help you pick up weemen, learning when and where the right time to try  might also help too, the main trick to pimp yer game is ...... wait for it, treat weemen as people, as equals, with respect and manners. 

Some damaged weemen may fall for his techniques and some women are dumb enough to chase after bad boys and wonder why they get treated like shit but in general just stop being so fucking desperate.

Julien Blanc, not in my name! 

No one can give you a handjob as good as yerself, if you can't be with the one you love then love yer loving fist. 

Sam Pepper Sexual Predator

He can't be a rapist, he likes doggies.

I had not heard of Sam Pepper until a week ago. He had made this YouTube video in which he has an arm of his hoodie in it's pocket and when he asks pretty young weemen for directions on an L.A. street he reaches out fom under his top and feels their arse. 

What did I hear about Pepper a week ago?  Well the guy who made it with him was frantically trying to distance himself from Pepper and the video, it seems that some people do not think it's appropriate to sexually abuse women in the street. 

 Not a pinch but an opened handed fondle.

In the YouTube the women are outraged as they look around to see who grabbed their butt and Pepper says, 'oh I think he just pinched your ass' to fool them and then when he asks for directions to the Apple store again he grabs them once they turn their back on him. 

 Even hot weemen dressed like strippers have boundaries.

One woman repeated how she didn't like it but the thing is they all say it with giggles ... uncomfortable giggles which no doubt encourages him. People are taught to never make a fuss and to not be rude and so when they say, "I don't like that" it's said without anger, not that the perpetrator cares anyway, it usually takes violence or unwanted attention to put most abusers off from harming their victims.   

This woman smiles and giggles but in a 'what the fuck just happened' way rather than oh this is so funny way. Would if be funny if he grabbed their boobs? For some reason weemen are more protective of their boobs and it is less acceptable than a butt grab, the thing is that a butt pinch is still barely acceptable and often gets laughed off.  

Laughing is a nervous coping mechanism, it doesn't mean consent, it means uncertainty. The weemen nervously smile and back away from him but he laughs and smiles and hey it's in public so it must be safe right?   

Not wanting to appear rude can be used very effectively by an abuser that they will do things in public so you don't speak out. People seem to have the damaging fear of what others will think and what if they don't believe me? Maybe because there is a long history of blaming the victim. 

Reaching out for a boob no doubt. 

English DJ Dave Lee Travis got a 3 month suspended prison sentence for groping a woman's breasts in 1995, she says "I was too paralysed with fear to confront my assailant" she has stated that she will not seek any compensation as she was only interested in telling the truth. Travis was cleared of two other sexual assaults that happened in 1990 and 2008. 

An older man was fired from his job when he hugged a customer. Many came to his defense and said it was what he did and he was just being friendly ..... Dave Lee Travis said that he was just a cuddly touchy feely person. Abusers try to trivialize their actions so YOU are just being silly and are over acting. Just because the abuser and many others defend and enable the behaviour that doesn't make it right. 

So polite that you automatically shake hands when one is extended.

Pepper relies on women being caught unawares and not knowing how to react . He says it's consensual but he never asks them beforehand, he may get them to sign a release afterwards but that's like raping someone in the ass then saying, 'text me when you get home to make sure you get there safely' .... which is what one 19 year-old waitress is claiming happened to her with Pepper. 

Victims go through a whole range of emotions which usually end in them feeling guilty about what happened, it's the abuser who should be feeling guilty but they don't care, you aren't even a real person in their eyes, yer a means to an end. 

This is how the likes of Jimmy Savile got away with his hundreds of sexual assaults or how all those pedophile priests got away with stuff. Being famous or being in authority so that you and yer misguided supporters can discredit the victim. 

 

Even a twat like Pepper has fans, 2,397, 026 subscribe to his YouTube channel. I don't know why as that southern English accent is just sooo grating, he's one of those queer or just English people. As you can see he wears his mammy's jewelry and Harold Lloyd's 1920's hipster glasses. Well I'd like to smack him just for those glasses.  

After the fallout of his grab ass video he posted one that had women grabbing men's butts then he claimed it was a social experiment to highlight abuse against men because when women get abused they have all sorts of outlets but men don't..... well unless you count RAINN in the US or Mankind in the UK or Survivors UK who have been around for over 20 years, apart from those and all the ones I didn't mention there is no help for male victims of abuse, those fucking bitches who were asking for it anyway get everything! 

Trying to appear the victim? ..... classic abuser tactic!

Do I believe Sam Pepper and his videos that talk about how his male friend was abused in a relationship and how one time some women grabbed Pepper's little skinny white boy ass and he didn't like it, he felt violated? .... cue meaningful guitar music, no seriously he had guitar music start as soon as he started with the sob story part of his videos. 

No, I don't believe him. 

Old Knudsen is a good judge of character and very often will dislike a person right away without any logical reason to do so and later they give him plenty of reasons to have that initial reaction ... like how a dog detects the bad uns. When I ignore my gut instinct that's when I usually end up having an argument on Facebook and unfriending the fuckers. 

Thank you for validating my ability you dickheads. 

Pepper envokes my dislike response, I would not be surprised if he pinned a lass doon and wanked over her without her consent as I have heard or that more and more gurls are coming forward with tales of sexual abuse. 

One YouTuber named Laci Green  did a Sam Pepper exposed video. She is a sensible lass, not always right but more right than most. Since many sexual assaults are he said/she said I'd believe what Laci and the gurls who trust her enough to come forward have to say. 

Pepper's friends and many fans have deserted him because it just isn't cool to sexually assault women in the street under the guise of a prank and then to pretend it was a social experiment. You can say 'oh it was just a grope' then you can move on to say 'oh it was just rape' and before you know it you sound like an Indian politician saying 'boys will be boys' as raped gurls commit suicide out of the shame they are forced to endure.

Pepper is 25 year-old, he should know the rules. You don't trivialize sexual assault with a YouTube video. I saw how those woman reacted and they may have signed a release under peer pressure but what you don't see is the many women who refused to sign one and who nearly called the cops. Pepper later claimed it was all staged and scripted, the only thing staged and scripted was his insincere cover story.
