Bob Kimball: Here, Bert. I got you Subway.

Bert: What kind of sub?

Bob Kimball: Meatball Marinara, with Provolone.

Bert: *takes a bite* I'm done.

Jasmine: You only took one bite! Can't waste food!

Bert: I didn't want Subway! I wanted KFC! A bucket of chicken!

Bob Kimball: Well, I didn't go to KFC!

Bert: Can't you do anything right?

West Virginia Hillbilly: Yeehaw! Who wants some moonshine? *flashing an almost toothless smile*

CleoNA924: *whacks the hillbilly with a cartoon mallet* Who is this dude?

Me: No idea!

West Virginia Hillbilly: *out cold with cartoon stars floating above him, and his tongue sticking out*

CleoNA924: *sees an old blue Ford truck with a West Virginia license plate on it* We don't even know this fella.
