boiler Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Why call them the "new" Wassabi? If they added a "new" everytime they made a change, they'd be somewhere around the "new new new new new Wassabi Collective give or take a new or two. They make more changes than BNB take breaks.

ersh Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 You see Shelby, myself being younger than Mike, I can accept that statement. But although he initiated the joke, you may have just crushed his reality. Age is no joking matter. Especially at our age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
