Transcript

I just spent the last month designing, three d printing, wiring, programming, and sewing the coolest fucking Furby you are ever going to see. Let's hear from the man himself. They wanna drive a wooden stake into my heart for pulling my cock out at the Toronto Blue Jays game. All I'm saying is I paid for the tickets. Well, I'm 34 shivered as timbers. If you see the green light lit up on its forehead, that means it recognizes your face, and it will track you with its eyeballs. They thought they could stop a demon on back. I don't give a fuck if I go blind. I don't need to see the price tag anyway. I'm on them Nashville nibblers. I smoke real Imrany rapscallion ghost nuggets. Y'all can't fuck with me.
