Arm Writing 8

Man...haven't done one of these in a while. I was just rather inspired today. anyways, here goes.

Prepare for (kill all the) lice children - Tomorrow I go to the grade school, for some sort of all-day-long "festival". And by "festival", I mean "the school makes us do work all day". Apparently there's an epidemic of lice running around the grade school, thanks to some asshole little kids. So I'm bringing in a can of "Raid", and wearing a paper bag with a face drawn on it and eyeholes cut out. When I'm approached by little kids, I will draw my "Raid" and spray them in the eyes, later explained to be "in self-defense". No thanks, kids, but I'm not going to be able to pull off a Micheal Stipe.

Raffi - I really just can't get over about how awesome it would be if all of a sudden Raffi started a hardcore punk band. "RING! RING!! RING!!! BANANARCHY!!!" I enjoy screaming this whenever I can.
