Sounds like another chapter in the 50ft Nerds saga! The 50ft Nerds: You shall not pass, you c*nt

We're back for an Attack and Paul has an exciting time racing cars, Mike has a robotic exhistential crisis and Doug extols the glories of war.

How is the most handsome, suave and debonair member of the 50ft Nerds now 40 years old?! Well, time mostly.
