Brace yourselves, tributes. The YouTube group Bad Lip Reading has set its sights on "The Hunger Games," and the result is sheer hilarity.

After tackling a few iconic moments from "Twilight" successfully earlier this month, BLR ventured into the Seam to see what else the "Hunger Games" characters could've been mouthing in some of the film's more dramatic moments and dished up some very smelly dialogue.

In place of Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Gale (Liam Hemsworth)'s oh-so-serious convo about taking off to live in the woods, the exchange becomes "What'd you do? It reeks. It's like a hot ...
