They had been all about doing pranks on folks. Clown was like, “No matter you strive, I’m not going to baulk.” That they had certainly one of their cooks hole out a tomato and fill it with these insanely fiery pink chili peppers. Dime pulls out this tomato full of this silly knot of chilis and he goes, “How a lot is it gonna price to get all this down?” And Clown goes, “I don’t want your cash,” and simply grabs it and begins consuming it like an apple.
Whereas that definitely sounds horrific, it’s nothing in comparison with what Taylor talked about subsequent:
It will get worse. We head to the toilet, and we’re pissing on the urinal. There’s a bit of gum on one of many muffins within the urinal, and Dime seems over and goes, “Alright, Clown, how a lot wouldn’t it take . . .” Earlier than he can end, Clown reaches down, grabs it and begins chewing.
