2 Guys 0 Planners
by Yvgenii Reed, Urban Hafner
2 Guys. 0 Plans. Urban and Yvgenii get together and discuss life, the universe, and everything in between. Sometimes it's about pens, but you never really know what you are going to get. Parents be warned, Yvgenii quit censoring things a while back so there may be a bad word or two that sneaks through.
