Sounds Like: a lactose intolerant Tom Bosley after binging on ice cream, swiss cheese, and chocolate and washing it all down with a glass of whole milk mixed with cottage cheese. Looks like Mossman and Stinkor's (remember He-Man?) love child. Smells like rancid afterbith. Tastes like a rotting cat carcass covered in Easy Cheese and jalapeno jelly. Known side effects are: dizziness, nausea, frequent urination, bloody stool, hair loss, erectile dysfunction, tooth decay, hallucinations, seizures, mood swings, liver spots, and Tourette's Syndrome, amongst others. Tested only on the finest laboratory animals. Abuse only as directed.
