Baby huey why am i so different

Possibly J I thought it was Alice in Chains at first too. Especially when he goes, "Do I stay or do I go", match that up to "Never cared for what they say". Those are some seriously dark thoughts for a guy in a diaper-- duck or no. Seems like he skipped potty training and went straight to Needle In The Hay.

I haven't seen a giant talking bird get this depressed since that one time that Big Bird got all painted blue. Oh God, this movie scared me so much when I was younger. I still own it.
