    Well, that was funnier than I thought. XD

    Also, I thought the worms that were all over the Raging Boar God from Princess Mononoke were really patches of his blood. Chew over that for a moment, now.

    Yeeeeeeeeah. @_@

    And now I'll have nightmares filled with Tom and Sam's spooky faces. Thanks.

    Monsters covered in worms continue to be gross.

    Happy Halloween guys!
