TAXPAYERS ARRESTED FOR BITING MAILMAN

About Me

Former astronauts, future spoon playing champions, and currently hungry. The Taxpayers march forward on the quest to punk-rock the pants pants off you, thus creating a no-pants dance party. You can find us at The Sea Shanty, building suspension bridges, or rummaging through your trash. We must say, you order a lot a take-out Chinese. Thanks for the egg rolls.The Taxpayers always accept high fives, hugs, and are stuck in a lengthy filibuster over ass grabbing.
