Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. For someone with the initials JK, I am 100% 98% not loling. If Santa brings anything to stuff your stocking with this year, I hope it’s an embryo so that you can play these cruel, mildly funny practical jokes on your own kids.
If you recall his demonic and devilish Halloween prank (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YQpbzQ6gzs) I’m assuming your Christmas wish for JK will be the same.
I would hate love to see the equivalent for pets, animals and everything else that has toy-playing capabilities. And yes, that is a request, failblog.org
