Fuzzy Prick

Date February 27, 2010

Yes, the Fuzzy Prick really is a cocktail. It's also a great way to insult a guy while pretending to be hospitable. Like, if you're buying the first round, you guess what everyone wants, and when you get to the guy you don't like, you say, "And you - Fuzzy Prick?" And he gets all ...
