It was screwing up the game a bit, we made a lil face at it, and then we smashed it. Picked up crumbs with our thumbs after, no dots left behind. The moral being: surprise! No cheese pizza is actually great. Purity Ring pulled a fast one here, stuffing a bubbly pop song into the electrostep-whatever framework. Maybe not what you expected, maybe the best choice after all.
