THE KRAKTANGLE BANG ERA .. .. .. The cenobite-grafting of certain ultra-galaxian ZNA brought forth the presence of enTITTIES in hindquarters that would not normally be found on this level of existence - even with drastic shifts in the ATOMosphere's chemistry. Under normal konditions, these KRAKS in surface fill themselves from normal pressure, BUT kleavage burrows have made it so they peak from hidden kanyons and rise furthur than regular expectations. There is great danger, especially if these KRAX kollide within 3.74 quadzillion karcepts of an inhibited planet. .. .. .. --THE NEW GANGSTER KRAK ERA-- .. .. THE KRAKATORIUM - KRAKOVIA, EASTERN EUROPE .. .. ((This small republik is one of the last remnants of the Kommunist Krak Blok from the Skold War. At the fall of the Kast Iron Kurtain, these kountries were in deep dire straits bekause they now had to adapt to the ways of the outside world that allowed KRAK to advance freely. With no government kontrol, the normally sekretive underworld of KRAK underwent a period of publik acceptance. To kontrol the KRAKANARKY running the streets, Krakovian citizens kreated the KRAKGALAKTIK MAFIA. The first central headquarters was the KRAKATORIUM, erekted in Laskrakasdad, krak kapitol of krakovia.)) .. As demand for KRAK increased among eastern european women, High Fashion was quik to answer with specially designed SUPER-LOW slung denim products-not kreated to kontain the normal EXtra-Krakestrial dimensions. As paragons of Krakivity, girls who were once selling dirt for 2 KraK Kopecks, were now being paid outrageous amounts, injecting fake fat into their flat rumps, and slanging the questionable morals: EXPOSED KRAKTRONIKA. .. .. THE K.W.O.: THE KRAK WORLD ORDER ODOR .. In the West, a "DROOPY DRAWERS LAW" targeting young maggot Krakoneers was pushed forward in Virginia, and Louisiana, but was quickly intercepted and deaded. The K.W.O.-(The KRAK WORLD ORDER) : the bureaukraktik governmental answer to the KraKgalactiK Mafia- origianlly intended to neutralize the KraK impakt by sublimating Anti-Krak messages to the publik thru Android POP-KULTURE-VULTURES. But realizing they kould profit from both loose morals and waistlines, the pokitikal agenda bekame perverted, as did the kontributions of their mass media ikons. .. The channels CBS (kontracted-by-satan). Yo MTV KraKs, and Bamboozled Entertainment Tel-lie-vision have been at this for years but is finally koming to a head now, and those of righteous fiber must battle for their free konciousnesses so there will be no res-erektion of the old KRAKERTARIAN fascist regime that has brought so much havok & mayhem to our dimension.. As i now breathe, and fingers move, anyone else who knows this message must RISE UP, bekause if we don't, no one will. WE kan tax these KRAKERS if U can kount SUCKAS. WE are the savior of the next era, the earthkraks kannot seperate us. .. ..
