M E O W= we are here to denounce M E O W not me you dumb ***!
Eric, don't even waste your breath on that sad pathetic pile of monkey dump in M E O W/Donna/her alter egos. She's hopeless and just spews the same old crap each and every day on here. She's like a robot and needs oiling every so often. Hell, Francis the Mule was a thousand times smarter than this docuhebag will ever be on any given day.
So is Combat Hospital getting cancelled?
