Seth is the proud owner of a hokey social media account by the name of Spillz.
This is somehow the most outlandish concept the show has introduced to date.
Is Purple and blue, good for you.
White and yellow kill a fellow real?
Did I really just learn actual wilderness advice fromThe Wilds?
If any reader can tell which one it is, like let me know.
I would like to read it alone, on a beach, like Dot.
