You didn’t really kill it, did you?? Say no, ok?

I meant lay the guilt on heavy, not actually blow it’s brains out. You just may be going over the edge.

Wally, this blood’s on your hands. You knew how close to the edge he was.

Hell, I didn’t think he’d actually do it!

Can’t…catch…breath… too…freakin’…funny!

aha, you’ve been so kind to me in my efforts to quit smoking, that I must offer to return the favor. If at any time during your breakdown you need some support from a fellow Doper, I’d be happy to sponsor you through a day of therapy.

Now let that puppy go and quit messing with Wally. You’ve got him all upset now. And _that_ I will not stand for!

Oh, gimme a break. If he had killed the puppy, he would have just made the ‘BAUM!’ sound, not typed it!
