Stupid Heating Devices Will Be The Death Of Us

Eco-minded bloggers do no take too kindly to these patio heaters that keep South Beach tourists eating outside in their tank tops comfortably because they will single handily deplete our natural gas reservoirs and cause global warming (as opposed to just the intended warming of patios).

Eco-minded bloggers do no take too kindly to these patio heaters that keep South Beach tourists eating outside in their tank tops comfortably because they will single handily deplete our natural gas reservoirs and cause global warming (as opposed to just the intended warming of patios).

Order a Slankent, cancel your next Brazilian wax, and man up. It is not that cold out.
