I would've checked "yes" on the poll, but "Bacon man in a bacon snuggie" was too good to resist

what? no cracks about underage drinkers or "Not looking to team up with twenty something’s who think they are going to take the world by storm with their lame, copy-cat, mee-too, sounds-like , super original undercover-cover band but hey, we’re much uglier and we suck out loud types."?
