You write well for someone who just started reading yesterday.

My title for the next volume…
A Litany of Misfortunes

GORDON, YOU SHOULD RECONSIDER. MICHAEL BAY MOVIES ARE PROBABLY THE ONLY ONES YOU CAN HEAR AT ALL!

The Extendables

I think the best revenge would be to keep his character on the show. I suspect that by writing new jokes around his previous witty rejoinders, they could probably milk him for another season or two at least.
