Performance art is all fine and good, but do they have to blast that infernal noise? I completely empathize with the guy who gives them a swift kick in their ass. March around all you want but don’t cause a goddamn racket.

Very good… When I first saw the real Big Dog I actually thought it was two guys under a blanket, hehehe.
