What is the prupose of the silver bar?
Wow putain ce que c naze !?
Why does a woman need to feel like a woman “through the eyes of a man” ?
How insulting.
Also, while I’m complaining, the lip gloss would be impossible to apply.
The brush should be in the silencer bit that comes off, not the other way around.
… guns. They’re so-o-o-o chic, aren’t they?
gun cuture promotion is never chic
More true to the “weapon of beauty” theme, this gun should be loaded with diet pills, a cigarette, the morning after pill and a dose of botox that can be shot through the gun right between the eyes.
we try to create a peaceful atmosphere in the world, and this shape of weapon does not help to the purpose.. simply i don’t like it!
yea..what would the silver bar be for?
This made me feel both angry and perplexed. Really? ‘Weapon of Beauty’?? What a belittling and overly simplistic look at femininity.
where does the antique hair pin come from?
Stupidest thing I have ever seen and I’ve watch “dude where’s my car?”
Oh my gosh I LOVE IT!!!
i’m with pom pom, it’s the sutupidest thing i’ve ever seen!
in new york a woman would whip out her gun to apply lipstick and be riddled with 37 bullets by the nearest cop….
