I’ve touched on this before, but I needed to give another shout to a true comic genius, Drew at MTTS / Toothpaste / Superpoop. Trifecta of funny…today’s Toothpaste for Dinner is amazingly good: gay_robot Funny, and honest. Don’t believe me? Check out Reddit for a few minutes…the trolls are rampant.

Maybe he commissioned someone to diamond-up a Zach Morris phone back in the day. I bet that would cost well more than five million Pounds. Even with inflation taken into consideration.

Two words: Three sandwiches

If I truly was the fat kid at work, that RockStar would have a shit-load of carbs and the coffee would be something other than black. Still, you have to start somewhere.

Motor Shield Assembly Steps
