The following was delivered to the Office of HMQ cenobyte, in right of Saskatchewan:
We are having this treaty because The Nipper and The Captain want peace between each other. We will try to trade every day. We will trade cudlies [sic] and toys. If anybody hurts each other (meaning The Nipper and The Captain) the Treaty is over! If eather [sic] The Nipper or The Captain don’t like the deal we trade something else. Signed, The Nipper, The Captain.
Items traded this day: one cuddly dog for spinning walking with dinosaurs light
Thus endeth International Torment Your Brother Day.
Have they watched the Simpsons episode where Bart and all the neighbourhood kids declare war on Nelson, and in the end have to draft a peace treaty? Cuz that’s what it’s makin’ me think of.
Herman is one messed up character.
I dunno. I thought it was pretty good for two mostly-white kids who’ve not studied treaties yet in school.
As cute as that is …
It’s also kinda fucked up in a Simpsonesque kind of way.
Sure they’re not of some sort of Mennonite background? I like it!
Actually, kind of. Tangentially. I had a Mennonite nanny for the first six years of my life. My very first churchin’ was in the Mennonite church.
Er, no. We don’t think the Simpsons is an appropriate program for kids.
