8
9->'''Strong Bad:''' Yeah, I wrote a children's book. Who hasn't? I mean, kids can barely read as it is so how hard can it be to write for them?
10
11Strong Bad shows off ''Everyone Is Different'', which is clearly an old book on diversity by Lem Sportsinterviews that Strong Bad doodled over and defaced, turning what were once innocent pictures of different children at play into all sorts of random and deadly situations.
