I just watched Dr. Horrible Act 1 and 2 again.  I can hardly wait [...]

Milk is actually one [...]

This was so funny I just had to share it. First a little back story, for those not familiar with the Princess Bride. Miracle Max is a little old “wizard” type character played by Billy Cristal. Fezzik is a giant played by Andre the Giant. Fezzik and Inigo are knocking on [...]
