Review from 3 Hour Tour →
The first part of this story was so unintelligent that I actually had to laugh aloud! Then as the story continued it devolved (which I would have argued was impossible) into porn.

Review from Rainier →

My main gripe is that the narrator reads too slow. Once I bumped the speed up to 1.2x, it was fine.
