People telling other people what to like, people whining about bands selling out. Hello, attention, the other thing I hear a lot is how ya'll hate the little fag kids who's whole life is fitting in and being "different like everyone else" yet your going to tell them what fucking music to listen to. And calling all of the alternative bands sellouts? Of course there sellouts, that's the whole point to the music industry, to sellout become millionaires and never have to get a real job. Imagine this your the leader of this really neat-o band, and surprise, people like you. Now some guy in a suits offering you the chance to be a gazillionaire, all you have to do is sell out. I bet you'd think to yourself, "I can't accept this money, then I'd be a sellout.". So you'd politely turn the offer down, and leave. Sure you would, I mean you wouldn't want to be a sellout, would you? Of course not that would mean that you would be unbelievably rich, and millions of people all over the world would here your music. Oh, yeah that would be bad, real bad. Suddenly I can see everything from your point of view. Oh fuck, and I almost forgot, the women, they'd be hanging all over you. Talk about hell on Earth. (sarcasm) Wow, my life has just been totally changed in seconds, I can't believe how lame I used to be. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: caution! :: :: submitted by :: mercuri :: and now for things that you're glad you use to _not_ know, but now are pissed because i told you about them; 1) think about how easy it would be to confuse a cow's utter with it's penis. "milkin' time roy!" 2) there are millions of little bug's that live on the inside of your eye-lids, and there's nothing you can do about them. 3) when a fly lands in your food, they just regurgitate what they just ate into _your_ food, and re-eat it. 4) your mouth is dirtier than you crap, because what comes out as shit, has been filtered. and it's 98ø in there too. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: a day in the life :: :: submitted by :: handle :: Well I was sitting around and I said hey I bet a lot of people want to know what it's like living in Indiana. And then I thought hey I live in Indiana, why don't I write about it? So since I've peaked all of your interests heres a real nifty timeline of my day today. (it's been a pretty normal day) 3:00AM: Ah, time to get up, oh fuck I slept in. Quickly I tore off my skibbies and ran to the bucket we have outside of our house. (It collects rain water) I washed myself, and brushed my teeth with baking soda. Then it was out to the outhouse to take my morning pee. Finally getting dressed cleaned up, and eating breakfast I headed out into the fields to harvest the corn. (we have a lot of corn here in Indiana) I climbed up in to our tractor and got to work. Our tractor is my families pride and joy, it cost $40,000, that was more than my house! After a few hours of cutting down the corn and taking the "ears" off of the "stalks". (These are some slang words us corn farmers use, I don't know if your familiar with them) Phew! Glad that's over, we have to work awful hard if were to get our dinner of pork and beans. Now it was time to slop the hogs. We fed them corn because other than pork and beans that's the only food we have here in 'Indiana. My favorite hog Morton won two blue ribbons in the county fair last year, and my mom won a total of four for her quilts and picklin'. After I was done slopping all 82 of our hogs it was time to clean up all the shit. I love this part of the day, especially when I get to burn it all out back. Here in Indiana we like to start fires, hunt, and dig holes for fun. Time for lunch already... ma tells me to walk down to the general store and pick up the pork and beans. It was only a sixty mile hike so I did. Then finally after coming back and waiting for ma to cook it up, I got to eat. MMM, did those beans taste good. Oh look it's 7:00AM time for pa to drive me to school. Pa drives me across the whole state every morning to take me to school. Here in Indiana we only have two. Today I had a pretty normal day at school. Went through my morning classes, went out to dinner, then the afternoon classes and I came home. After school every day I have a couple of hours to write and then at 6:00PM time for bed, I've got to get a lot of rest if I'm going to do it all again tomorrow. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: ween :: :: submitted by :: hal08 :: I squeezed into that car like a zit. The damn puss was everywhere! We were going to the ween concert. Along the way to heaven (ween), we saw like deer on the side of the road, it was phat with a PH. We started discuss what might happen that night. We may not live after tonight, there is supposed to be ALKEYHALL! Aww yeah, the brownies in heaven are sprinkeld with something a little bit stronger than chokolate! The mosh pits at ween were cumquats compared to that last hootie and the blowifsh concert! I broke my left fingernail, it sucked, but i had a GREAT scar to show the ladies. The only thing better than a ween concert is sex with a fellow ween fan! well, anyways, the ween concert. We were waiting for ween to play, and the GOO GOO DOLLS came out. We were in shear SHOCK. Can you belive that the actual GOO GOO DOLLS were playing in front of ME! I was getting chills, it could have been that shot of beer i had before, or maybe that brownie laced with white out. I am just so HIGH, im HIGH and im listening to the goo goo dolls! Well, we met up with this cute girl from san fran, she had legs like that girl that is on tv. Her lips could only be compared to a cow chewing grass, and she made me HARD. I told her all these things too. After the goo goo dolls played, the lights went down. We could feel the tension in the atmosphear, the moment we were all waiting for, WEEN! Ween just bloomed like a summer rose. We were getting high off the experience itself. I get remebered of the doors when they say "girl we couldnt get much higher." CAUSE THATS WHAT WE WERE FEELING. It was like this tubulor out of body expeirence or something. I think we were tripping now! Lucy in the Sky of Diamonds! I coulda died right there, and been happy. Ween started off with a major long kickass solo, it lasted for like 30 seconds. Then the drums kicked in, and this big huge expression of musical talent just zoomed in, homing on my halucinagenic mental state. Unfortunetly, ween had to end, but our night wasnt over. I started to get with that girl. I had to put the moves on her. I walked up to her and said so sauvely, "so, wanna go get a cup of joe?" Damn am i smooth, the good part is, she subdued to my witty retorical skills, and bowed to me as if i was Mr. Ween himself! We went to the java joint, and ordered some coffee. We began to talk about the concert. I asked her if it was the same for her. She agreed, she just nodded her head to everything, like what i was saying was what she WANTED to hear. I could tell she wanted me, its natural. Most girls want me, but there afraid to say it, or show it. You see most of the time, i ask the girls out and they go. "With YOU! and giggle." Girls always giggle about sexy men such as myself, the WITH YOU crack, well, thats only denial. They KNOW what they want, and that is me. All of that did not matter now, i thought that i was rad i knew she thought i was too! Even though i was tired, and high as a mutha fucka, i still astertained to get with this chick. I started to put some of those moves i got in store for her, on HER! she was like a really small pawn in my game of chess, puddy in my hands, and I know now that i could only use my powers for good, and not petty, horny ambitions. after we drank our coffee's, i offered to pay, and she said "ok" and asked me if i would like to go to her appartment so she could show me her ween bootlegs. This is the chance i was waiting for. We go up a small building type thing. I was supprised how we walked up stairs just to get to her door. Whenever i went to someones house, there was just 3 or 4 steps, but this chick was STRANGE, she had like 14 or 15, it was WIERD. Well we soon got in, and she said, look. "Ween, live at the apallo" She had it, live at the apallo. This is more rare the the infamous, "rocking disneyland" boot, she showed me this and said. "its getting pretty late, you better head out." im too sauve to get high, and w00 this girl this far, and not get any. Its not right for a man not to have sex, sex is good and i deserve to have it whenever i feel like it. People try to deny me my right of pleasure, but they just get shot down. So i calmy, but sauvley said. "Ok." so i left, rejected and denied, i feel like killing myself, but visions of never hearing that last lick of track 15 of "ween- live at wayne stock." Can YOU imagine life without ween? well?

He didn't care about anyone but himself. (and occasionally he went in the woods and smoked a cigarette) Johnny tried to pretend that he didn't mind not fitting in, but truthfully it made him really sad. Even Johnny needed someone to love. Johnny tried to get the other members in his family to play baseball with him, but alas all three declined. Seeing that Johnny was down in the dumps his mommy went to the local humane society and got him a new kitten. Johnny loved the kitten like it came from his own womb. He brushed it and he fed it, and he dressed it up with little ribbons and bows. But then one day as Johnny came home from school his little kitten wasn't there, he looked everywhere for his little friend but it couldn't be found. Then he went in the kitchen and saw his family sitting around the table, pale in the face. "What's going on, wheres kitty?", yelled Johnny. His dad said sit down son we need to talk. "You ate Kitty!", yelled Johnny. No son, you've got it all wrong, Kitty was outside playing and he was picked up by a dogcatcher for not having a collar. "No, shutup I won't believe it!" It's true Johnny, we did everything we could but we lost him. Irate Johnny began storming around the kitchen punching and kicking all of the appliances. Where are they keeping him? Downtown, the place on Deerborn St. Running out the door, Johnny sprinted to the little hellhole they were keeping his precious kitty. Finally he arrived outside of the building and tried to pull himself together. After succesfully "taking a chill pill" Johnny walked in and went to the front desk. "Um yes, my kitty as picked up by one of your trucks today, and I just came over to pick him up." "Do you have any identification?" Thinking for a minute Johnny took out his wallet and pulled out his drivers liscense. But then the woman asked if he had a collar for his cat. Johnny could do nothing but mutter a solem "no". "Well I'm sorry mister but if you don't have a collar you can't have your cat back." Feeling himself start to cry Johnny walks out of the office with his head down. Not wanting to go back home, Johnny decides to go for a walk. About halfway down the street Johnny starts to feel the blistering cold of the wind cutting into him, so he gives himself a big hug and rubs his arms. Walking a little further Johnny begins to feel the warning stages of frostbite taking effect, so he turns around to head home. But just as he turns around a dirty looking man wearing a trench coat jestures Johnny to come over, so of course not wanting to come across as rude, he does. Crossing the street Johnny comes up to the man and says "What do ya' want?" "I was wondering if you would be interested in purchasing a nice collar?" "Boy I sure would, do you have any kitty collars?" "Kitty collars sure, sure, but I don't have them on me you'll have to come up to my apartment." "My mom said never to go into strange peoples houses." "Come on Johnny, are you gonna listen to your mommy your whole life? Your seventeen now. You're not chicken, are ya?" "Nobody calls me chicken!" Hesitantly Johnny follows the strange man up to his apartment in hopes of finding a collar for his long lost kitten. Finally when they get to the door of the old man's apartment Johnny follows the man inside. The first thing Johnny noticed about the house was the grime, hadn't this guy ever heard of pledge. "Hey Johnny come here into my bedroom I've got a whole slew of these little kitty collars." "Really, wow! I'll be right there." Johnny walks over to the bedroom and eagerly steps inside, but when gets inside he is surely dumbfounded by what he finds. The man is standing there with a gun, and it's pointed right at Johnny! "Oh, your one of those kitty lovers are ya, well we don't take kindly to kitty lovers around these parts. Now get up on the bed!" "I'm not afraid of you, I'm a rebel!" "Get on the bed or I'll shoot you!" "Ok, Ok you don't have to get rough." Laying on the bed Johnny is tied up and blind folded. He is left simply with the phrase "Bye bye Johnny, were gonna have some fun with you!" About eight hours later Johnny is taken off of the bed and put in what seems a trunk of a car. After driving about a half an hour Johnny is taken out of the trunk and taken into a really warm room. Then it happens, the blindfold is taken off. Looking around Johnny is filled with horror, he is surrounded by men in red cloaks and there are severed cat heads and candles. Quickly the men undress Johnny and bend him over spanking him with a large board and chanting oh-num-she-ba, oh-num-she-ba. After about an hour he is set free not far from the building. But his troubles are not over yet Johnny is then chased all the way home by guys on motorcycles wearing skeleton outfits. Running down the street Johnny finds a bike, he gets on and starts peddlin' and peddlin' and peddlin'. But alas the bike is no match for the speedsters on the motorcycles. Cutting him off the skeletons kick him and send Johnny tumbling down a hill, and crashing on the bottom. Getting up and again beginning to peddle, in hopes of getting home before being on the recieving end of a beating. But alas, once more he is caught and gets an asswoopin' right there. Regaining consciousness Johnny finds a note laying next to him that reads. We have your cat, if you ever want to see him again you have to enter the all-valley karate tournament and beat our boys. But if you lose or fail to enter the tournament, your precious little kitty will be a fine addition to our collection of heads. - that really weird cult Johnny got on the bike and rode home, crying all the way. When he got there he began kicking the bike and saying "Stupid bike, I hate you, your the source of all my problems! Damn you bike, damn you!" Seeing this Johnny's mother rushes over and says Johnny what's wrong? "I've got to learn karate." "But you already know karate." "Not out of those stupid books, a good school, like the YMCA." "Why do you have to learn karate?" "Shutup, damn you mother, damn you!" The next day Johnny goes over to the YMCA, looking to enrole in a course in karate. But then just as he walks into the class he sees that the prize pupils of the class are the skeleton boy's from the other night. Seeing that the dork from the other night has just walked into their class, they run over and start beating him horribly. Over in the corner of the room a lowly janitor doesn't like what he sees so he steps up to the challenge and beats the skeleton boys with his mop. When the last skeleton boy drops, a little kitten drops out of his pocket. "Kitty!" Scooping the kitten up into his arms Johnny kisses it on the nose and begins to shed tears of joy.

"Why thank you, reader! I'm glad you asked. The answer to the question is very complicated. It begins in the dark jungles of Bangladesh. Realli? That sounds intruiging! Please continue! "Thank you Gaurdian}, I shall continue... In a sylvan glade, there resides an ancient truck. Realli? What is in the truck? "Inside the truck there lives a small colony of pygmes. Now, the pygmes, (as everyone knows) love to feast upon the carci of water buffalo that have washed up upon the shores of India." "Oh? I didn't know that, Gaurdian!" "'Tis true, young reader! Anyway... the pygmes were especially hungry one day. So they went in search of sporks." Sporks? What are sporks? "Sporks are the traditional pygme eating utensil. They are half spoon, and half fork! And, they can kill a water buffalo from 50 paces! So the pygmes left the safety of the Truck, and flew to the shores of India when they arrived in India, they marveled at the vast expanses of convenience store farms. 'Ah...' they cried. 'Look at all the seven elevens!'" "Yes? And what happened next, O' mighty Gaurdian?" "A powerful mage, the lord high "Apu" fell upon them with arrows of fire. And the fire burst upon the pygmes with the strength of 1000 suns. But the pygmes were not harmed!" How did they survive, Gaurdian? "And Apu's flaming arrows did not pierce Cthulhu's shields... and the pygmes were not injured. However, Cthulhu was not a merciful god! In exchange for his protection, he stole the pygme's souls!" "The soulless pygmes then traveled to the shores of India, in search of water buffalo. The journey was difficult. The frozen tundra of India was barren and cold... and many a pygme did freeze to death, and turn into a pygme-cicle on the icy ground. But the pygmes did not waver in their quest. THE WATER BUFFALO WOULD BE THEIR'S! And the pygmes were not diverted from their path by the evil wooly mammoth's. And the pygmes did not stop at the foot of the mountains of Gaul. And the pygmes traversed the sea of blood. And the pygmes were not way-laid by the sirens. And the pygmes arived at the shore. And the water buffalo were plentiful and sure. And the shore met the ocean were the waves did crash. And the pygmes let loose their sporks. And the sporks did fly straight and true! And the water buffalo were felled! And the pygmes did feast! And the pygmes ate until they were full. They ate. And they ate. And they ate and ate and ate and ate and ate. And then they had dessert." "And when the were done, Cthulhu ate them. And Cthuhu did enjoy eating the little pygmes. And Cthuhu did decree, 'Let forever the favorite color of ALL future pygmes be BLUE!' And lo! So it was decreed. And so it was done. And that, young reader, is why my favorite color is blue!" Thank you, O wise and noble master! "You are duely welcome. Some day, perhaps, you shall pass that legacy on to your pupil." Oh I will! I will! Goodbye, master!

My name is Bob. Bob Deadguy. I'm like normal people, 'cept I'm Dead. I live in a funeral home, and I sleep in a Coffin. I drive a pinto, cuz somebody told me, that only deadmen drive pintos. So I bought one. I have a dog..... His name is Ralph. He's dead too. He's a good dog. He doesn't go doody on the carpet, or bark at the neighbors. But he's not very much fun either. He can't chase squirrels, or cars, or even catch a frisbee, or play fetch, well... cuz he's dead. But it's always fun to watch the flies buzz around him. I woke up today, and wrote out what I was going to do on a paper plate. Then I ate my usual breakfast of coffee..... I don't eat.. I dont need to, 'cuz I'm dead... I finished my coffee, smoked a ciggarette, (Worry about cancer? HA! I'm already dead!) Then I got in my pinto, and went to the grocery store. They don't like me there. Most people don't like me. Alive people don't take well to dead people who are still walking around. I was leaving the store, and as I was walking out, I was dragging Ralph behind me, and he got caught on some guy's shopping cart. Ralph got caught under the wheels, and knocked his cart over. The man, quite irate. He threatened to kill me, So I informed him that he couldn't 'cuz I was already dead, and so he punched me. So I left the grocery store. After that, I went home for lunch. Lunch was quite a bit like breakfast, Except I drank pepsi instead of coffee. Then I went to watch some T.V. I was watching T.V., when a man came on. He was a middle aged man, balding, and wearing glasses. "Bob, do you know who I am?" "Ummm... No. My T.V. does not normally talk to me, so I'm a bit confused right now." "I'm God, Bob." "Well Hi there God! How are you today?" "Not real good Bob, I'm going to end the world today." "Well, I thought you said you weren't going to do that again." "I lied Ok! I changed my mind." "That's not very nice, God.... Your not supposed to lie....!" "SHUTUP, BOB! Who's the all powerful master of creation, Me or You?!?!" "Well, I guess you... But...." "Well but nothing! Anyway, I'm going end the world today, And I've chosen you to survive." "Why's that God?" "Because you and your dog are the two beings on this planet who are not by greed, or lust, or hate. You are my ideal children." "Spiffy. So how's the world gunna end, God? Fire? Flood? Bombs?" "No Bob, rabid llamas." "Rabid llamas? How does that work?!?" "Well, It's already started. The first llama bit someone a week ago, and they secrete a bacteria that generally drives the victim insane, and gives them this uncontrollable urge to run about biting people, thus, spreading the disease." "Wow... that's pretty nifty God." "I thought so." "Ok... so... I just go about as normal, right?" "Yup. Have fun Bob, talk to ya later!" "Ok! Bye God!" So then we went outside and watched the world end. Then we went to sleep. If you try to find any deep, philosophical meaning to this, your stupid. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: random ascii characters arranged in a particular manner :: :: submitted by :: handle :: Hey, don't you remember when you were a kid and you had no life? We all just sat around and watched Nickelodeon. And then every once in a while David the Gnome would come on, damn you David. Why the fuck didn't they cancel this son of a bitch. You had to sit there and watch that god-damned show for half a fucking hour waiting for something good to come on. I always just wanted to knock him down and smash that god-damned hat. I could just picture him walking off the set, lighting up a cigarette, and pinching a co-workers ass. You'd turn on the TV hoping for "You Can't Do That On Television", and then you'd see David or that fucking little fox, and you'd just say "dammit I hate this fucking lame-ass show." You could always change the channel, but then you couldn't understand a damn thing anyone was talking about. So this is a big middle finger up to that son of a bitch David, I can't stand you or your fucking fat-ass wife. What the hell was with those damn hats, I never could understand those fucking things. They were just plain stupid, ooh, look I'm a gnome, friend to the animals and I'm good at breaking and entering. The only thing that was cool about the show was that they came out and said it, "this little fuckers living in your house and you don't even know about it. Sneaky little prick isn't he?" In conclusion you ruined my childhood you son of a bitch, I hope your show get's canceled and you rot in hell. Oh yeah and don't think I didn't notice you in Father Dowling you dickweed. That fucking show was horrible to, you cock sucker. And I hated those fucking kid's on the Trix commercials, what makes these little ass holes think there so god-damned special that they get all the cereal? The kids on there weren't even normal they were always retards. I mean damn, if this rabbits gonna let a bunch of retards order him around, he might as well just end it right now. I mean these fuck ups couldn't even tell who he was every fucking time he came up with a new disguise. Now that I think about it I hated that little fucking rabbit to, I mean what the fucks so good about trix anyway, they don't have the sprinkly sugar coated marshmallows or anything. Yet this rabbits jizzin in his pants for this fruit looking shit. If he liked the cereal that fucking bad why didn't he just go to the store and buy some, or at least kick the shit out of those holier than thou little shitheads and take some back to his hole. Overall I think pretty much all of the cereal comercials were lame. Like the lucky charms commercials, the kids would try to catch lucky to get his cereal, and he'd get away from him every time. All he could do was make fucking rainbows and float away, why didn't they just get guns and blow his leprechaun ass out of the sky. The least he could do was come down and fight them fair. He should have just said, "ok you want my fucking cereal, then your just gonna have to kick my ass and take them right now." That would have ended it right there. Where do they find these god-damned kids, they can boss around a talking rabbit but they couldn't catch a little faggot Irish guy who could make rainbows. I think lucky was a little trigger happy too, I mean please talk about abusing your power, he was making a new fucking marshmallow every day. He made so many of them he couldn't even think of another lucky charm. What's so lucky about a piece of shit red balloon? Nothing, the guy didn't make any fucking sense, he should have been locked up and studied. And god damn it don't get me started on that coco-puffs bird. What the fuck was so entrancing about these little chocolate turd looking things. I hated the fucking things personaly, they tasted like shit. These fucking kids on the commercials go fucking crazy when they eat them. Was there hallucinogens in there cereal? The commercial was so inaccurate, if these kids liked chocolate so much that they would eat this shit then they'd all be fat asses. God damn it feels good to get all of that out, I've kept that shit bottled up for years. Well thanks for listening, hope I didn't offend anybody, but if I did, so what. It's not like I give a fuck. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: we want the moon and we want it now :: :: written by :: mercuri :: we should have claimed the moon as U.S. territory. that would have been cool, screw puerto rico as the 51st state. make it the moon! right of exploration, right? just think, we could have charged people for moonlight. other countries. i can see it now...

($.55) they were beatiful. they looked so graceful just sitting thier. i bought them. but this was no ordinary buy. i went up to the register, smiled a toothy smile, held the mentos in my thumb and index finger. and said ``mentos!'' mocking the voice in the commercial, he could only smile and laugh thinking about that fresh feeling i would soon receive. i walked outside. frantically opening the chewey mint candy's wrapper. and popped one in my mouth. ``damn! this are good!'' i said with joyful abandon. the street light was green and it was raining. i had a mentos! i went nutty. i ran across the street flaunting my mentos as if it were a pass to lawlessness. the people in the car could only laugh at that fresh feeling we all get when we pop a mentos! i like to think they let me get away with this stuff because it reminds them of their childhood and oh, how they enjoyed the mentos, oh so much. but the i say to myself ``wait, their just mentos! you dont need reason!'' it was time to head back to school, i had to pass another street. on the way i walked passed a lady with an umbrella, so i said ``hi!'' and held the mentos! between my thumb and index finger and said ``mentos! the freshmaker!'' (once again cleverly mocking the tv voice) so i had to cross another street. a snapple (made from the best stuff on earth) truck passeed was coming. i saw the ``M A C K'' logo coming closer, i took a chance, ran, held my mentos in that oh, so special way. and the driver laughed. (no doubt questioning the freshness of his own breath) i made it to school. modeling the mentos and it's handy carrying case to the students coming out for c lunch. the only thing they could yell was ``the freshmaker!'' and ``hey! punk! gimmie one before i kick your ass!'' but they didnt, because mentos allow everyone to just have fun. making my way back to spanish class, i was tardy, the teacher said ``jesus, (my spanish name) you are tardy.'' i didnt say a word, i just held the mentos between my thumb and index finger. and she laughed and said ``nevermind.'' the kid infront of me turned around and said, ``jesus! you got mentos! jesus has mentos!'' everyone i saw in the halls, i just had to do it, i had to show them my prize i bought for 55 cents that had brought me so much hapiness. so i would mock the man in the commercial and say ``mentos! the freshmaker!''. i went to pull one out, and a senior i never saw before said ``hey! you got the freshmaker!'' i laughed and said ``of course!''. in 6th hour some bastard offered me a starburst candy for one mentos mint, i could laugh at him as he questioned the freshness his mint gave him. alas, i had finished the entire recomended serving size (the whole damn thing ofcourse!). and i wistfully threw away the wrapper that had contained the chewy mint candy. but thiers always a tommorow! and i'm buying 2 fuckers tommorow! i will be *so* damn fresh. ============================================================================ ============================================================================ :: reading and understanding the homeric simile :: :: submitted by :: handle :: I am writing I'm not writing for any particular reason, But just because I feel like writing at this particular point in time.

The Commie bastards, they say we live in a "free" country and we truly have the "freedom" that other nations lack. But it's not true, it's just a ploy they keep all the information from us, they dictate what we know because they realize that stupid people are easier to rule. Instead of informing us they just keep us in the dark, slop us like hogs, and then feed off of our bloated corpses. I mean please we all realize it, why can't they finally come out and say it, "captain crunch fibers cause lung cancer". I mean think about it, by now everyone knows. Isn't it pretty obvious? Look at those little yellow things woven into delectable bricks. You can't tell me you've never choked on a captain crunch fiber, we all have, numerous times! I think the government should just come out and say it, "It came to our attention many years ago that millions suffer from lung cancer because of inhaling captain crunch fibers.

I don't care what anyone says, I'm going to make millions on this ones. I'm going to crush you all beneath my heals. The possibilities are endless, I can have a little cartoon bear named tipsy be the spokesperson, there's possibility for millions upon millions of flavors. I can have malt liquor, beer, mixed drinks, wine coolers, straight ass kickin alcohol. Champagne that would be the ultimate, champagne in a juice box.
