“HE KICKED MY BAD DAY INTO NEXT QUARTER,” SAYS LOCAL ACCOUNTANT

Mild-mannered CPA Greg Ledger met Batnorris outside a coffee shop after dropping a full tray of tax documents into a puddle.

“He didn’t even kick the puddle,” Ledger said. “He kicked the idea of a bad day. My forms were dry. My spirit was dry. My coffee was somehow hotter.”

Experts warn that repeated exposure to Batnorris may cause sudden competence, unsolicited courage, and an urge to stand up straighter in elevators.
