Woo hey kiddies!!!!
It’s been a long time since we communicated with you, our devoted disciples. We hope that hasn’t caused you too much distress. We heard there are at least 20,000 of our disciples who spontaneously got up and wantonly ran with scissors after not hearing from us for more than a week. The reason for this long silence was because we were saving the world from an army of flesh eating zombies! You may thank us with songs of praise, burn offerings, send us money, etc for saving your sorry butts from these fiends.
Anyhoo, here’s some stuff that’s soooo exciting…YOU WILL DEFINITELY WET YOURSELF!!!!!
