You know, nothing is beneath him, but he is always beneath you? The Incredibles? No? All right, fine. I spend too much time with kids. And I have no idea what your positional preferences are.<br /><br />So let's see... to me it looks like something that's used to anchor something else into the ground. That's my best guess. <br /><br />It's too bad it's not The Incredibles, though. I always did like the name Violet. Plus, it would be really fun to be able to yell, "I am the Underminer!" at random intervals.<br /><br />Yah. Right.
