(...) *whiny voice* I heard that they don't drink coke. is that true? Do they really have horns that they file off? Do they wear super underwear? (they do do that, but it's not super underwear) ^_- (Warning: this has all been in fun, I'm a wacky (...) (24 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
