Hi, are you in a weird place right now? Did you just join EC? Well have we got NEWS FOR YOU.

From the makers of "Friends" and "People Who You Can Talk To" comes an all new package.

THE EC WALRUS. For just 4 easy payments of a minimum 1 post per day you can have your very own EC Walrus to talk about your problems. Just look at some these wonderful testimonies.

"I had the most nasty stain but by using EC Walrus I cleaned the mess right up!"

Well obviously that was the wrong testimony because the EC Walrus DOES. NOT. CLEAN.
