You think hurting my daddy is cool, after you selfishly ravaged the whole town? You oughta be ashamed of yourself. People worked hard for that food, and you just come in and steal it! Have you ever thought about their feelings? No. You haven't. You deserve to stay hungry if your only solution is to take, take, take, take, take.
