Shadowfox walks into the room, wagging her finger at the food fighters… “didn’t anybody tell you how bad it is to waste food? There are starving children in Assboink, Idaho that would give up their third arm to be able to eat some of this food!”

Shadowfox stomps back out, shouting over her shoulder “And I am not cleaning this up!”

**NO!** Don’t throw the Twinkies! Twinkies are a rare commodity these days in the Northeast.

Stomps out again…I’m still not going to clean this mess up!
