Well at least she didn’t become a [runaway teenage hooker](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_ymje93Kuo).

If we’re going to be killing Partridge Family kids, I’d definitely vote for Danny taking an ice pick to the skull.

Problem with that is you would only be killing the character, which kind of comes up short. But really, it would have been much more satisfying to have hair-boy crossing the tide flats to get to pussy[sup]\*[/sup], get stuck in the wet sand and then eaten by crabs.

Dude, chill. I’d kill Keith so I’d have a shot with Laurie or Mrs. P (see above re: Brady Bunch).

I’d kill the youngest brother, but they’d just replace him again and NOBODY WOULD NOTICE.

I LOLed. A lot.

I said Bobby grew up to be a spy because of the intro to burn notice where Sam? notes that spies are whinny little bitches.

Is that because her supple body and golden curls (and probably that cushy doll too) softened the impact for Bobby?

I’d prefer to kill them all off _except_ Marcia, but if I only get to kill one, I pick Cindy.
