greyweirdo makes excellent chili. It is well worth the price of the gasoline just to eat the food he generously offers. And then the companionship from his friends and house members makes it even more worth it. They zip high-level jokes back and forth, and everyone keeps up and one-ups where they can.

It's been painted as a judge acting on his own personal involvement and punishing these people too severely - also a testament to the stupidity of taking pictures of yourself engaging in illegal activities and posting them.

Or just having fun? Make your own decisions.
