check the minutes of that meeting, are we sure he didn't end his question with "asking for a friend"?

seriously if Lockjaw is so bad why'd they name a Marvel superhero dog after it? HUH? BOOYA!

I was born and raised in Marin county and I am not surprised at all. AT ALL. the only thing bigger than their per capita income is their per capita smug know nothing-itis.
