Find a red rubber ball and burn it. The kind you'd use to play with a dog. Just burn it until it's completely blackened. Bury that somewhere. Cerberus...well, I can't guarantee he'll help. There's not really a high probability of it happening. But he's your best chance.

Next time, just...ugh. Don't do ANYTHING.
I'll take care of it.
Brave, don't be a douche.
ReplyDeleteAnd what exactly inspired THIS outburst, Zach?
ReplyDeleteIf you're still pissed about the fucking Marriott, I'll pay for it. You don't have to be such a whiny dick about it.
And nothing would have happened if I just stood by doing nothing while you were off jerking it somewhere.
Zab, Brave, we are too busy fighting a potentially soul rending entity to fight amongst ourselves. I don't care what it takes, if you two have to fuck each other, or what.
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS NOT AS IMPORTANT AS DEALING WITH SM.
THE FUCK DO YOU THINK WE ARE TRYING TO DO HERE, ROB?
ReplyDeleteWe both are about to do something to increase our chances against the malevolent fucks, and Zach is being emo about everything.
I dunno, all I know is that you're both insulting each other like you either hate each other, or secretly want to fuck one another.
ReplyDeleteI'm not 12, so hate=/=love.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about Zach, but I'm not gay.
You lot sure seem gayer than a bunch of hobos havin sex in a stolen van.
