    When i first started watching ATHF, the intro music was breaking my none-native English speaker brain and I always heard the last part of the song about meatwad being “and I am a t#rd” and Meatwad being kinda slow, it made sense in my brain, but I was like WTF?!? They used the R-word? Days later, I use subtitles and it’s “torus”, and am still like WTF??
