Dad here; last night I heard a terrible sound, the herking yerk of a canine who had evidently indulged in too much of a bovine diet. Not wishing my foot to discover the gelatinous mass at a later date and in the dark, I levitated out of the bed and into a pair of Adidas warm up pants. One fluid motion, never touching the floor in transit, a triple axle pirouette guaranteed to get a…

What is UP with that place? And what place would that be, Ajax? Ohhhh... you mean (cue scary music) THE VET!!! You ain't never lied! Dad said something about making my butthole faster, or I wouldn't have agreed to go in the first place! Hold on there, Jax; how were you supposed to make your butt faster? I heard Dad tell Mom that he was going to have my anal glands expressed, so what was…
