Oh shit. Ohhh Shit. Fuck! FUCKKKKKKK!!!

@Soundsaboutleft and I just fucked up bad.

We thought we could handle shit since we ate gremlins without a problem.

We were fucking wrong. My Pet Monster fucked us up...oh god. It's TRYING TO BREAK IN!

We'd heard a rumor that My Pet Monster blood could be used to scare off fraggles.

We'd already had to fight off five of them earlier.

We did some googling "how stop fraggles murdering you" and we saw the post "So You're being hunted by fraggles."

So Left did a little more research "my pet monster blood 4 cell." That lead us to a rumor that there was a My Pet Monster living in Griffith Park in the old zoo.

It was a thirty minutes drive there, but we'd already siphoned enough gas from our neighbor's car to get us there.
We got to griffith and found the old zoo.

We piled out of the car. Left had his The Penetrator and I had the Anal Annihilator. Look, if it worked on fraggles, it would fuck up a My Pet Monster.

We started to check out the various rotting cages.
We'd all but given up when we saw a tiny sign that says "My Pet Monster...this way."

It pointed to a cave that went inside the hill.

"You're going first, dickfuckle" Left informed me.

"Uh. You're the one with the better melee weapon."

Left flopped it about. "It's flimsy."
"You're just the worst, Left."

"Yeah. I know. Tell you what. I'll make you a doozer sundae."

"That's what got us into this problem in the first place."

"I mean...if we eat them all...they stop being a problem."

"We have no clue how many fraggles and doozers there are."
"Fine. I'll buy you pizza."

"Good pizza. Not that Pizza by Alfredo shit I hope."

"Great Scott. Do you think I'm a savage?"

"I hope not."

"Just get the fuck in there and blind the monster with that anal annihilator."

"I want pepperoni and sausage."

"Whatever."
We made our way into the cave. It was dark, but random torches lined the way in.

After what felt like forever, we came to a large chamber.

It was lit by hundreds of candles and torches. Upon a throne of bones we saw My Pet Monster.
Upon his head was a crown made from, what I could tell, the skulls of various Saturday Morning...WAS THAT HE-MAN'S HEAD??

"Left," I whispered, "this dude seems badass."

"It's either we bleed him dry or we have to move."

"We can't afford to move!"

"Then get to annihilating."
We took a few steps in and we heard him speak. He didn't even turn to look at us.

"I've been waiting for yo...WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU ASSHOLES?"

"I'm RIght. He's Left."

"Those are your names? Did your mother hate you that much?"

"She hated him," Left pointed out.
"We're here..."

"To buy from my MLM. I have everything from energy drinks to skin products. What would you like?"

"Uh...do you sell your blood?"

"No. I...is this a kink thing? I mean you're holding sex toys."

"What? No. It's not a kin..okay the toys are, but not the blood."
"So you want my blood? What for?"

"We're undersiege by fraggles."

"And you think I'll give my blood up f...ah. You thought you'd kill me and drain me of it."

He stood up and the weight of his body made a skull below his foot explode into powder.

"Come and taste death."
I looked at Left and he looked at me. We both knew we were outmatched, so we ran.

We could hear My Pet Monster following after us. It was laughing. Taunting us. "Run mortal. Run, but know I will always find you."

We bolted to the car.
We got home and immediately regretted not getting a better door. We'd bought a shitty one off of craigslist to replace the one that got fraggle rocked the fuck out its frame.

"Should have gone with steel doors if we're going to keep killing these beloved creatures," I said.
"Yeah, well, if wishes were fishes it'd stink like shit after 3 days," Left said.

"That's not a saying."

The door started to shudder as My Pet Monster knocked.

"I know you're in there. I can smell your fear...and Taco Bell. Did...did you stop at Taco Bell before fleeing home?"
"Yes!" I said.

"We needed the nutrients."

"Uh. Did you get a gordita?"

"Yeah. Always."

"And Spicy potato tacos?"

"Yeah!"

"Hand them over and I'll let you live."
"Why is it we're always being robbed of our food?"

"Because it's magically delicious before it blows your asshole asunder."

I opened up the mail slot and slid the food out.

"I hope you got fire sauce."

I put those through the slot.

"Okay. I'll let you live...for now."
"So what are we going to do about the fraggles?" I asked after My Pet Monster left us alone.

"I don't know...build a moat?"

"You gonna dig it?

"Fuck no."

"Maybe...maybe we could just put the corpses of the dead ones on spikes in the front yard. Ya know...intimidate."
"Yeah. If it was good enough for Dracula, it's good enough for me."

So that's how we ended up with 5 dead fraggles staked in our front yard.

I'll let you know how that works out.

I can tell you the neighbors are pissed about the smell.

Most fast food places have a secret menu. @Wendys has a secret Fight Club. Well, actually, more like a secret food kumite like in Bloodsport.

@Soundsaboutleft competed in the most recent one.

He still has night terrors about it. He'll randomly wake screaming "Baconator!!!"
Just as a bit of a preface. The Wendy's Kumite is how Wendy's selects its next menu item. Each combatant is one hypothetical menu item.

The winner of the tournament's food they were "given" becomes the newest menu item.

What? You thought a committee or some shit did that?
Left was chosen after he filled out one of those restaurant surveys. Actually, I shouldn't say one. I should say around 3,200 surveys. Each one said "I want free food!!!!" and then had provocative art and our address/phone number.

The dude loves Wendy's. He'd do anything for it.

Can I just point out how obnoxious neighbors can be.

So our little Vlad the Impaler rendition didn’t work with the first five fraggles, so we had several more attempts on our lives.

Now we have about a hundred out there and I just got a sternly written letter from someone.
It reads “You two are literally destroying this neighborhood. No one wants to buy a house on a street with rotting corpses impaled. The smell also is depressing. Please tell us why you’ve slaughtered beloved Saturday Morning characters en mass?

Clean this up or else!”
“Are we the assholes?” I asked Left.

“Uh. Was there any doubt? We spend our days slaughtering and drinking.”

“I think this might have gone too far.”

“It’s either we continue on or we get jobs that pay well enough to buy food. Good luck with that!”

Okay, so @Soundsaboutleft desperately need money and since neither of us are physically appealing enough, we decided to join a medical experiment.

The experiment would remove our brains and pump blood, etc. around and see if we could still talk.

They paid us $50!!
So I watched the interviews they did with us while our brains were gone.

Oh, right, they put our brains back in and this is my talking with a brain...it's...

JUST GO WITH IT!
So I'm watching the video and the first thing I noticed is that I keep screaming "I WANT A RED HAT TO PROVE I'M A PATRIOT!"

Weird.

Left keeps going "I have an immune system and don't need a shot other than whiskey! I know this because a mommy blog told me! Give me horse paste!"

So I eluded to this earlier, but earlier ...wait...I just...earlier earlier @Soundsaboutleft had a fight for our lives against a "delivery person."

Here's our tale of woe and triumph.
So earlier I was reviewing Die Hard and Left was shadowboxing while his Care Bear jerky (I'll get to that another day) cooked...cured? Whatever the fuck it does.

There was a knock on our door. I ignored it because it's a pandemic and I refuse to have human contact.
They kept hammering on the door. Like insis...insi...constantly.

I yelled out "Just leave it, asshole!"

They kept knocking. I looked through the door eyehole and saw someone wearing a death mask.

Not the king Tut type. The "wear during the purge" type.

Not a lot of people know this, but @Soundsaboutleft was a tough NY cop who went to LA to follow after this wife and when he was at a ...

THIS IS DIE HARD'S PLOT. YA GET IT???

I'm reviewing die hard.
And I don't care if it's a Christmas movie or not. It's an awesome 80s action film.

It stars Bruce Willis as John Shirley McClane, the late, great Alan Rickman as Hands Across America Gruber, Reginald Vel Johnson as Urkel's neighbor, and other people.
(So due to a delivery being scheduled between now and whenever the fuck it comes, there's gonna be a large gap at some point while I put all that crap away...deal with it.)
