Pluggo the sluggo You act like you’re the only one in the world who has to be an adult. Nobody cares. Parents? Some people don’t have parents. School? Some people don’t get the chance to go to school. Bully? Stand up for yourself. Stress and anxiety? You act like you’re being drafted to go to war, you have the chance to make your life what you want. You have it better than the vast majority of people on this planet have ever had it. Quit being a little soft sissy and do what needs to be done without crying because we don’t care.

The most amazing thing is how their eyes are set in front of the face and not to the sides of its head, they can see straight in front of them and and attack their pray with such speed & accuracy.
