Those things have been kicking my ass whenever I have a VPN on lately.

I’m out here clicking stairs, motorbikes, crosswalks, traffic lights, and it just keeps giving me “Try Again” …I’m starting to doubt I’m actually human.

My favorites are the ones i used to get on dread, jesus christ i've never sworn so much trying to do something so simple, it was ridiculous.
