Paint: sneaky hate spiral

This is the first installment of "I stole the title from your blog and made a picture."  Today's title comes from Allie, at Hyperbole and a Half. She has great titles, so she'll probably show up often.

Just keep writing

So, I am kinda excited that there is an animated ad on my blog-- isn't it fantastic?!?

Also, I'm trying really hard to think of something to write right now. If you check out my other blog, you already know that I've had a few hard days. I've been doing lots of thinking about life and liberty and bananas and such. I am completely emotionally drained, but I am also determined to become at least slightly fluent in the English language...and I've always wanted to be a writer. I know I'll never be nearly as talented as others who can make any story an experience, and I know only on the very rare occasion am I funny, but I think that if I keep trying, maybe eventually I'll get to the point where I will no longer be an embarrassment...
I'm sorry...I've still got nothing...

Dear me,

Why are you such a bad person?

Love (kinda),
Me

YAY!!!

I've got an ad for Cordless phones now! That is super exciting for me.
I know this is my 4th post in one day--I'll stop now.
I wonder what I should write about tomorrow...

haha

Wow--that's a lot of talk about bugs and slugs. Are you still reading this? I can't believe it. I'm sure no one is starting now, so if you are reading these posts, you are probably reading backwards from far in the future...In which case you should definitely stop now. This is just going to get worse. I'm mostly just playing with the ads. (They are all about ant extermination so far.) I was reading about how Allie had started her other blog to make money, so I thought I'd play a little. I sorry to say that I am not a writer (as you probably already know). I have a basic grasp on the English language at best, which is sad to say because it is my primary language. It's even sadder if you think that English is my only language...I should try to learn another language. I wonder if that would help or hurt my English.
Anyway, you should totally check out Allie's blogs--they are super entertaining. I've been at work pretending to work (Please don't tell on me!) for a few days now as I'm devouring all her posts. I promise you won't be disappointed.*


*I take no responsibility*** for disappointments, because it is your fault if you aren't smart** enough to like her.
**By "smart" I mean "able to overlook the swear words and enjoy the humor."
***I'm really sorry if I made you read something you didn't enjoy. Please, tell me what you do enjoy so that I know for when I make future recommendations.

Killer ants!

Remember the far away land where the 3 Bananas killed the ant? Well, the story didn't end there. The ant's name was Anthony, and he was followed closely by his friend Annette, who saw what happened, and ran home as fast as her little ant legs could carry her there. Upon her arrival, she did her best to explain what happened. "Tony...Banana....Evil plan...Tony....Dead...Banana...squish--" but she was interrupted by Juan.
"Stop talking and breath!" He yelled. "Did Tony kill the banana, or did the banana kill Tony?"
Upon taking a deep breath, the little ant tried again. "Tony--Banana--Kill"
"Tony killed the banana?" asked Juan
"No...Banana--"
"So the banana killed Tony?" Annette nodded her head excitedly, as Juan demanded she show him where it all happened. Calling an army from their colony, Juan and Annette set off to avenge Tony's death.
Because it took so long for Annette to verbalize the story, they arrived at the scene of the crime too late to catch the 3 Bananas. Looking around, Juan saw tracks left by the bananas as they fled the crime scene so he led his army off in that direction. While on their way to catch the bananas, the army of ants found some huge yellow banana slugs. Thinking they must be what Annette was talking about, Juan gave the signal for the army to attack.
Everyone knows that Banana slugs are slow, so the ant army was able to quickly over take the slugs. The slugs were questioned, but their lack of knowledge of the crime was seen as an arrogant farce, and the slugs were quickly killed.

A long time ago...

In a land, far away. There were 3 Bananas. Why 3? Your guess is as good as mine--better probably. These 3 Bananas were special bananas. They were super bananas. And they knew they were invincible. Since knowledge is power, they set out to fight crime. Except that they didn't know where to find the crimes, so they settled for fighting everything, hoping that one day they'd conquer crime.
One day they came across an ant. Knowing they could easily overpower the ant they lay in a row on the ground waiting for the ant to take them home to his queen. The ant saw one banana and tried to carry it away, but as soon as it was under the banana the other two bananas shifted, so that their weight squashed the ant. Good-bye ant! The 3 Bananas added "ant extermination" to their list of skills and went off to find something else to fight (If you can call squishing an ant fighting, which they absolutely did.)
