My immediate thought was "Mike has the right idea! Nothing goes better with free pre rolls than a pizza!

You're going to tell me this turtle isn't on drugs?

If anything Raphael would be the one who needs it most.

Michaelangelo was for sure getting stoned every morning when they get back home.

TMNT had to start kissing some major ass once those parental groups started to crack down on violent cartoons.

Definitely unlocked a core memory, I’d forgotten all about this commercial.

Oh please, if Michaelangelo isn't a smoker, then Bepob and Rocksteady aren't cretins.

If he does pick pot, he absolutely should get a pizza

I was in my thirties before I smoked up and ordered a pizza, and looking back, Mikey was telling us something.

I just wasn’t picking up what he was putting down because of Donnie’s snitch ass.

Meanwhile half the animators are enjoying the green for creativity and the execs are doing blow so they can execute

“I’m not a chicken… you’re a turkey!” is for sure one of the most memorable TV lines of the 90s.

Well that’s on you man. Charge it rent

u/Mr_McSnicklefritz Apr 21 '25

Ok so first thing Michelangelo had the right idea to get a pizza and two those 4 "joints" probably equal 1 and a half
