Go To

"This hunger grows inside me like a tumor
The dizziness just compliments this failure of a girl
I'm settled now; the show of mine consumes me

"If I eat that, I might get fat and people won't like me no more!"
Candace Crush rejecting French food, Huniepop 2

"Some people in this world can eat anything and never get fat! It makes me so jealous! I eat a cookie crumb and suddenly I'm saddled with a buffer of blubber. To make matters worse, my wife and daughter are always scrutinizing my diet. Can't a man enjoy a pastry wheel in peace?!"
Captain Olimar's entry on the Pastry Wheel, Pikmin 2
