Move over Liger, Grolar Bear discovered:
Edited on Fri May-12-06 12:42 AM by originalpckelly
I just saw this on Wikipedia, but many of you probably caught it on the Colbert Report's Threat Down.

I wonder how Napoleon will feel about this discovery? <- Yes I understand Napoleon Dynamite was a fake character, GOSH!

Of course they had to kill it!

I can hear it now:
"Hey, wud do yu thynk et is?

I don' know, let's kill it."

3. Well of course they had to shoot it...
