Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, yeah, you better run.

Dear Spammers:
In order to get past my spam filters, you have to obfuscate the name of whatever you're selling so much that I have no idea what you're peddling. What the hell is MnEridia?
