  • @dingocrap I didn't have bottled milk in school, just that carton crap, where half of the milk is chunky and spoiled and sometimes when you try and open it, all it does is fold the top over and you have to manually make the incision in the top to drink from it.

  • @SloreTactician says the brit....are you fucking kidding me....it seems to me like the problem is these greedy power hungry scum bags that rule the planet....yeah its the little guys fault

  • @SloreTactician Agreed. We're idiots. Religious, Athiest, Capitalist, Communist. Morons really. Can't agree on the color of muck. Variety means conflict, conformity means oppression.

  • It's ironic that this was released in 1984, the same year that the famous novel about the totalitarian government that rose to power in the wake of a Nuclear War...

  • i like the fact the dad was not waiting for the dog, smart dad.
