Me: So, about Erin...

Ninja: What do I care, I'm still getting fed and having my litter box changed, right?

Me: Yeah...

  1. The funny/scary thing is that's pretty much how the real debate went.

Feel free to comment. So that I may respond and possibly mock and ridicule you. Just kidding. Maybe. We'll see what you say first, how about that.
