| 90. Right On Perky, take them to school, what an ass kickin you punks just got. |
|
3 people donate, you have 3 donations, 5 people donate, you have 5 donations. 1 million people donate, you have one million donations. WHats so fucking hard to understand, unless thats not the goal.....
Bunch of trolls and flambaiters who pretend they dont know what the word donation means and cant figure % on a calculator.
