I admit, I did not think that would come to much. But following my leaders on The Ticket who make these sorts of claims every year, usually about shaving their heads or some such, I felt it had to be done. Plus, bits are fun.

Terrible. How are they a franchise?
Ewwwwwww, yuck.
Ahhhhhhhh. Much better.
