A DVD player? You lucky devil.
Rubber chickens melt when you try to roast them. It's very upsetting for the owner of the rubber chicken and the person who gets stuck with scraping melted rubber off the baking tray. *sigh*
Oh. And the chicken.
You won a DVD player? How 1337.
The guy on the right of that poster looks like Star Wars Kid.
