Sloth never walk strong again for Chunk make Sloth hurt and cry for all the hurt Sloth feel when bones am crushed on Chunk driveway.

----- josh s. 26.12.12 13:22

My therapist has told me that the only way to deal with you, is to ignore you. But when you say hurtful things its really hard to do that. Please don’t cheapen what Stef and I have by insinuating such things.

Now I know where my Pulp Fiction VHS is. And you wonder why I kicked you out of our apartment. You kept stealing my VHS Tapes, Nintendo games and Parachute Pants.

----- brett 26.12.12 13:04

Sloth will strike down upon Chunk with great vengeance and furious anger when Chunk attempt to steal and rob trendsetting custom Oakley Frogskins from Sloth. And Chunk will know Sloth name is Sloth when Sloth lay Sloth vengeance upon Chunk!

PS - How Junior Chunk? Junior Chunk have nice pointy head like Sloth, Chunk think?

----- Chris V. 26.12.12 12:24

Duran Duran.

----- Toni 26.12.12 12:19

Seriously Sloth, I dont know how many more ways I can tell you this. LEAVE US ALONE! We had a great couple of weeks, but that was over 25 years ago. Stef and I want to carry on with our lives… alone. I will always cherish that adventure we all shared together as something special. But I have a family, a mortgage and a failing Health Foods Store that is requiring my full attention. I wish you the best, and I hope you are still taking your medication. But really… what would YOU do with Oakley Frogskins? I just don’t see how that would work out.

----- brett 26.12.12 12:04

CHUNK! Why you do this to Sloth?!? Sloth love Chunk! Sloth want win custom Oakley Frogskins! They polarized! I plan to have etch of “Sloth love Chunk!” Sloth need functional and stylish Oakleys - and now you try steal! Just like when Sloth love Stef when stupid Mouth dump her and you take her from Sloth! Sloth no love Chunk no more! Sloth love Sloth! Sloth love custom Oakley Frogskins! RAWWWWWWWR!

----- Chris V. 26.12.12 11:11

My favorite thing, ok… In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max’s toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog… When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out… But my FAVORITE THING - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

----- brett 26.12.12 11:00

The 80s music!

----- wendy 26.12.12 10:51

One of my top 1980’s moments was the introduction of Eurthymics. Eurythmics were 80’s pop music trendsetters. Annie Lenox a fashion futurist and icon rocked a bright orange butch hair cut in the “Sweet Dreams” video in 1980 and an ombre platinum blonde and brown pixie cut in the “Would I Lie To You” video in 1985. If that’s not fashion trend-prophetic, I don’t know what is.
