  1. ein kleiner Nachtrag an den Stengellosen Hausmeister einer Kloake.

    Mein Name ist Gerjet und ich liebe es mir mein Teil lutschen zu lassen und ganz besonders um es selber zu lutschen! Das praktiziere ich nun seit meinem 13`ten Lebensjahr, kannst dir vorstellen wie dies damals heftig zog.

    Ich begann eine Ausbildung und später machte ich im Handwerk den Meister, noch etwas später so um 1995 herum mein eigener Betrieb. 2015 alles verkauft und mit nicht einmal 40 im Ruhestand. Ich lebe heute überwiegend in einem Kaff was man Oberneuland nennt, habe eine Domizil in Kampen und eines in Santa Eulària des Riu und eines in Amsterdam.

    Ich war nie verheiratet und habe aber zwei Kinder. Aus dem Verkauf und aus der späteren Erbschaft besitze ich ungefähr 32 Millionen €, was hat ein kleiner Hausmeister in Cebu auf einem dürren und ausgetrockneten und steinigem Boden ohne sauberes Wasser welcher sich auch noch Resort nennt außer federlosen Papageien?

    Er hat einen schweizer Pass und ein paar Peso und seinen Strohhut. Er ist dort oder besser glaubt gebildet zu sein unter den Eingeborenen, ein Humungus ohne **** (du weißt schon), er frisst vergammelt stinkenden Fisch der oben drauf noch verseucht ist. Er ist Fettleibig riecht unangenehm nach Moder und kann kaum noch richtig laufen und sich bewegen.

    Schau mich an, trainiert und durchwachsen und und und. Ok ich mag exotische Dinge die der normale Bürger verachtet, besonders beim Thema S**. Amsterdam und New York sind dafür besonders geeignet um sich ….

    Aber ich gebe viel zurück, beispielsweise Kinderhospiz wo unheilbare und lebensverkürzend erkrankte Kinder intensivste Pflege bekommen.

    Ab und an läuft mir dann so jemand wie ein Hausmeister über die Füsse, wenn ich dann hier und da nicht beschäftigt bin bekommt er seinen Stall ausgemistet. Plump weil er ja weit weg ist, so plump aber dass er es registriert. Wenn es wirklich mal passen würde zeitlich und global wäre ich sogar zu einem Amtsantritt bereit um ….

    Aber so etwas wie dich der sein Intelekt im Po stecken hat und großkotzig den Master unter Negern spielt ist mir nur einmal begegnet. Denkst du das du noch lange uberleben kannst so wie du ausschaust? Also ich wäre bereit eine Euthanasie zu befürworten! Dann zurück Entwicklung und Abtreibung, so zusagen als abschreckendes Beispiel für die Nachwelt. Eine Mistgeburt hat viel mehr Berechtigung als so eine Type wie du sie darstellst!

    Auf BALD mein kleiner stengelloser Möchtegern. . .
