Once upon a time there was a lovely pin. But he had an enchantment upon him of a fearful sort which could only be broken by player's first flip.He was locked away in a basement guarded by a terrible fire-breathing arcade bar. Many brave knights had attempted to free him from this dreadful prison; but none prevailed. He waited in the arcade bar's keep in the lowest room of the deepest basement. For his true love and true love's first flip.
*RIP*
Like that's ever gonna happen. What a load of -!!
SomeBODY once told me, Shrek would never be released. That it was only true in fairy tales. Yet here we are! The people have spoken, and through peaceful protest and a grassroots movement, Ground Kontrol is releasing Shrek from our basement! It's time to party!
