^ Ha. Looks like Dash is calling dibs on the GDT.

A little early for a GTD isn't it?

Ha. I immediately checked to see if I made that mistake again. Nice dig.

Nothing to see here. Carry on with your DGT, old friend.

What is a DGT and how is a DTG fixing it?

Should be a wild game! Is there anyone left in Winnipeg that Ottawa needs to injure?

Ha. It's just a carryover joke. I made a GDT once and consistently referred to it as a GTD. SSF is ensuring that I don't forget my error.



^ Picture SSF as a monkey and you'll get this.

It's too early in the day for shenanigoats.
