Don't worry, it won't continue sucking your blood much longer. 4: That's not particularly comforting. Also, what now? 4: Now it's going to explode, covering everything in blood. 4: Except for me and the smoking guy, because our trench coats are too awesome to get stained. 5: Wow, what a mess. Good thing the walls were blood-colored to begin with. 5: Yes. I'm going to go now. Bye. 6: Hey Dave, I found your boom-leech. But it's dead. 6: Dammit! How am I going to get the walls here blood colored now?
Dialogue Comments
"Eat Fresh" -Panpear
This is based off of a marketing campaign for Subway. Is it just happening in the states or is everyone getting those ads? -Panpear
- It was totally unfamiliar to me, despite us having Subways here. -Dmmaus
- Interesting. Maybe they don't want to sell footlongs for less profit everywhere. Anyway, here's a youtube commercial of one of the later ones. They have many variations. Five Dollar Footlong (though the video has a lot of user made ads in it... but I didn't want to search too long).
