Hungry Dogs vs. Fat Puppets. WWW or WWF? I see a serious tag-team smackdown, round what, 2? Lil' Kimmy loses this one. Too many Twinkies in the jumpsuit pockets. Splooging white-stuff from outta the zippers, and he gets that hangdown look goin' on with the bouffant-do. Fat Puppets got too many good smack-down artists in their corner. Lil' Kimmy? He's lookin' good from the cheap seats, but HEY - the skybox VIPS have this one locked.
