How do I spam with an iPod? ,

Spencer Ackerman in fact did make me cry!

In the first episode Spencer Ackerman compares X factor 18 to the Fleetwood Mac Rumors album and even goes lyrics by lyrics and wow I am so bummed out right now. Appropriate for late Millennial and Gen X listeners who have seen some stuff personally and also love comics.
