I watched a 2024 slime tutorial on YouTube and it was so good I remember my mum saying we would see it when I was nine… I’m about to turn twenty and we still haven’t seen it! My favourite song is naughty!!!
(Not five stars because a lot of it was nothing because the person filming didn’t want to get caught which respect I get it but still annoying! 😭)
