MAGNETO: Die, X-Men! Die! PRINGLE: Aaugh!! CYCLOPS: Pringle!! No!! (rushes to his side) PRINGLE: (weakly) When I go, just promise, you won't let, the professor, turn my corpse into... CYCLOPS: Save your strength, Pringle! PRINGLE: ...an imitation potato snack food. That's actually, human flesh.
I need to go on a degen vacation STAT. No plans, shitbox car, barely any $$$, just drive around getting into hijinks and smoking weed and also sleeping in the shitbox car. I need this for spiritual reasons. I need to reconnect to my badly malnourished roots. Ive given something away. I want it back
