A new series

Extracting a Lidocaine from Anal Lubricant

Apparently I can't monetize this video because Youtube doesn't like the word "lidocaine." I spent $80 on anal lube trying to make this video... (not including the $20-$30 i spent on trying to extract from other products). Oh my god. That moment when you realize your video cost you $100+ 

Anyway, in this lovely video t...
