Ben: Ben is the one guy in your froco group who thought to bring a disc, making him the default “cool guy.” You’re lucky to be one of the nine people he knows, giving him no choice but to talk to lowly disc-less riff-raff like you.

Roger: Though Roger isn’t usually a disc guy, he’s established himself as a regular of the OC recreation scene. Whenever Roger’s outside, he’s playing with something, be it a football, a volleyball, or an innocent animal that has happened upon the scene. Since you and Ben seem to be having such a great time, he’d love to take a break from rinsing the goat to give the ol’ plastic pancake a toss.

Eric: Eric might be the only one in Farnam less coordinated than you. He sucks at frisbee, but you have to admit, it’s kind of funny to watch him try and tie up the goat.

Austin: It’s always great to have a crafty friend like Austin around. He knows the best method for everything, whether it’s throwing his shoe at the perfect angle
to dislodge the disc from a tree or cutting the goat lengthwise with his pocket knife so as not to rupture the trophy spleen.

Ben: Ever since Ben’s disc got chewed up, he’s been pretty much worthless, not to mention responsible for making the beast ritually impure before its slaughter. Looks like we’ll have to sacrifice him too. I guess it’s true what they say: every disc that goes up must come down. But boy, for one brief shining moment, that motherfucker soared.
