In my experience, they're pretty bad.

[laughingalltheway]

Where'd you get the scars?

[laughingalltheway]

The scars, these scars? Oh, these scars have quite the story, you see. If you'd like the story, I expect a story, see; a trade, a bargain, a deal. How does that sound to you? You tell me a tale, I tell you a tale.

Oh, you know, it's so much more fun when I can just snip a little something more fun in, don't you think? Tales are meant to be fun, to be entertaining.
