| Clever, creative, and catchy! Nicely done! 
Note to $D- unklemyke is irritated by people who constantly refer to themselves in the third person. Annoying affectations aggravate adults. |

| UnkleMyke: SourDough & $ourDough told me to tell you that they can don't give a rat's patootee what your opinions are of them. MYOB.
Also, since it's your birthday on the 29th, they both want to sing happy birthday to you in person. Where do you live?
Since $D no longer exists, I will now refer to myself as either :
