Transcript:
Woman: Lord Hun-Ra, I'd like to ask some personal advice. There's a guy at work who always winks at me in the parking lot. What should I do? Boopsie: First, curse him in the name of Zrod! Then, take a battle-ax and split his skull like an overripe cantaloupe. Woman: Oh. How about if he seems nice? Boopsie: Go to him! Bear his children!

JP, this is satirical comedy, meaning it’s not realistic. I mean, look at the woman who is asking for advice. Can you picture her being able to lift an axe, much less actually wield it?

I do like Hunk Ra’s first answer to the lady’s question!
