Right. . . .
Obscure 80s animation reference that is actually on topic FTW.
Hey, where's the profit?!
Somebody is working too hard to aim for the fun
There is definitely not enough meat in this thread.
The sad part is I don't know whether to mod it "Funny" or "Insightful".
Of course not. They would be caught dead playing Warcraft.
