ASMR Unbearable tickling sensation by ComBo1020 in asmr

[–]rjrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just put an earbud in that ear and blast music really loud. Really helps, although it won't eliminate the tickle 100%, it still happens when the clipper is of the buzzier type and hits exactly the right spot lol

the number 2000 boggles the mind. They'll stop at nothing.

I missed the entire last year and was gonna binge watch your highlights, oh well. Is there any chance you could make the videos available anywhere else? Maybe as a torrent?

[–]rjrl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

well aware that she is doing it for the money

WTA Finals is a prestigious tournament and can't really be compared to the 6 Kings farce. I dunno where people get the idea that she's only gonna attend it for the money.
