WASHINGTON — In a bizarre video posted to Twitter, Robert Kennedy Jr. has admitted that he is the one who killed beloved gaming icon Banjo and his bird sidekick Kazooie before dumping their bodies at Microsoft headquarters.
“It’s a funny story actually. I was on the hunt for a honeycomb to provide my brain worm with sustenance and this goofy bear in pants with a bird in his backpack wandered up,” regaled Kennedy in a strange attempt to get ahead of a future scandal. “Well the bird demanded I let them take the honeycomb because they needed it to live but it was speaking quite abrasively and seemingly doing a mean impression of me so I got an orange I had in my car and whipped it at the bear. They both dropped dead on the spot.”
Kennedy continued the strange tale, explaining how he didn’t originally intend on dumping the bodies.
“I was going to skin them and eat them. The bear would have made a great rug for the lake house. So I put them in my car but the day got away from me and I had to do something with them, I couldn’t just leave them in the car rotting. One of my friends who was with me told me they were gaming icons so we thought it would be a funny prank to dump the bodies at a video game company that would get blamed for their deaths.”
Microsoft has been getting blamed for the deaths for over a decade and now that the mystery is solved, Phil Spencer, the CEO of the company’s gaming division released an official statement to commemorate the truth being revealed.
“We here at Microsoft are glad that the truth over the deaths of these beloved gaming figures has finally come out. For over a decade we have been erroneously blamed and no matter what we said, no one believed us. We love these characters and that’s why we tried to keep their legacy alive by parading their corpses around like Weekend at Bernie’s in Nuts & Bolts. Now that the truth is out we hope that gamers have the closure they need and we can all move forward with the knowledge that Banjo and Kazooie will always be in our hearts and available to play on Xbox Game Pass.”
At press time, gamers have begun harassing RFK Jr. online with constant replies of “Where Banjo”.
