On the bright side, you are not bleeding out your ass.

That's an... oddly specific bright side to look on

Oh well, have some Monty Python anyway. Always helps when trying to look on the bright side... "de-dum… de-dum, de-dum, de-dum…"

True, but it simplifies things a bit.

That's true. Good song, though

I hope you feel better soon.

Might I suggest you try soup and water, rather than fast-food? An occasional teaspoon of honey can soothe a sore throat, too (for some reason I don't understand), if you don't have a problem with it (and aren't diabetic).


Yeah, that was actually pretty stupid of me to eat fast-food, along with Milo. Milo itself won't be a problem, but the combo made me too bloated.

And thanks! I will live, but man, these few days are going to be a little hard to focus on my schoolwork! :P

How often do you eat fast food exactly? You mention McDonald's a lot. There's not enough nutrition in those restaurants to sustain a hamster long term, let alone a human.

Actually, I think Mr. Flufflebutt just bit the cashier.

Mr. Flufflebutt has developed a taste for human flesh.

Mr. Flufflebutt shall consume us all.

We're gruesome one, we're gruesome all!

Now isn't that too glorious? 
Our nasty team notorious
Us gruesome griming glorious,

Never the less we won tonight --

For crime and slimey villainy--
Terwilliker Academy!

Oh, the walls are green with ivy down at Harvard
And down at Princeton and Old Purdue
[in Old Purdue!]
So what? They think they're smart with all that ivy,
At Terwilliker, got ivy, too!
[Got ivy, too!]
Hail to thee our hallowed halls! 
We got poison ivy walls!
Poo on Harvard, Yale and such! We got ivy they can't touch!

Poison ivy covered walls
Hail to thee our hallowed halls

Terwilliker, thy name we praise
We love thy foul and loathsome ways
Thy crummy criminality--

Actually, joking aside for a moment, I do strongly dislike fireworks.

Not enough to actually hide. But I do avoid displays.

So, if the police come looking for someone with respect to mysterious loud explosions... we'ren't me guv...
