Pig: How come after a holiday with my family, I always feel worse about myself? Goat: Oh, Pig. I'm sure they don't mean to do that... They probably just- Rat: Because life is like attending a football game. Your friends are the ones you go to the game with. Your family are the weirdos you find siting around you. Pig: So those are the fat people throwing bon bons at me. Goat: Pig, that's not- Rat: Yeah. So blow this in their face.

Throwing a bon bon into the vuvuzela? As Craig Ferguson would say, “That sounded dirty!”

Make it either a caramel or marshmallow one and you’ll really have my blessing.

There are few crowd-situations that can’t be made “better” with a vuvuzela!
Hillbillyman almost 12 years ago
Vuvuzela’s are merely a glorfied kazoo.

Proginoskes, In Europe, Soccer is referred to as “Football,” IIRC.

Pig should be a member of the “Married with Children” Family. The mom would NEVER throw a BON BON away!

I don’t make a move in the a.m. until I’ve seen what Rat has to say. Then I follow his advice and live accordingly. I love his football game analogy.

Rat has it right. Listening to vuvuzelas isn’t nearly as annoying as listening to my family. Not as degrading, either.

Not if you want to keep your seats and watching the game…besides nothing beats blowing great notes on the vulvazuela…rooty-toot-toot…

Hmm, that’s a nice modernized version “Of course your family knows all the heart strings to pull, they were the ones who tied them there.”
