The Slow March

On this coming Sunday it is very likely that I will be asked to start working seven days a week twelve hours a day. My choice will be to comply or look for new work. I will comply, as I did the last time I was asked to do this. They gave us a little bonus the last time which was a nice gesture but hardly worth the pain and suffering.

The last time I did this it nearly broke me. I was sent to a place to work a thankless job under horrible circumstances. This time I at least get to stay in my current position, or so it would appear. So this week if I appear to be filled with anger, resentment and dread you know why.

Dude, isn't that how you normally are?

Well, yes. But even more so.

Imagine an angry wolverine with rabies. Now imagine an angry cyber-wolverine with rabies. One that shoots bees from his mouth.

Right.

So I'm still not seeing the difference from you "normally."

Normally there are no bees.

You had me at the foreboding font color.
I am frightened.

are they honey bees? because honey isn't really that scary.

do they come out of your mouth all saliva-y?

They are genetically-altered killer bees which can penetrate the toughest hide and even kevlar vests.

Robot wolverines typically do not have saliva. Which is why I do. As I am an atypical killer-bee-shooting saliva-dripping rabid robot wolverine. So yes. All saliva-y.

My eyes hurt after trying to read your post.

Does it hurt the bees when they are shot from your mouth? Do they come back, or do you have to keep making more?

I make more dewdew. I am a new prototype rabid robot wolverine that also has a contained self-sustaining bee colony in my abdomen. And as I am a robot I experience no pain. Which totally does not explain why this week is turning out to be such a headache already.

Sorry about your eyes. Get yourself turned into a new prototype rabid robot wolverine with a self-sustaining bee colony inside you. You won't need those eyes then.

So, like Wolverine from X-Men or those furry things in New Zealand? You know, cause Wolverine from X-Men has adamantium over his bones and stuff. So, that is like kinda cybernetic....well, not really. I digress. Those bees, now did that not come from some movie? I thought I heard it somewhere. Are you plagirizing (sp?)....

I'll stop now...

I was always of the understanding that wolverines, specifically the rabid-robot-bee-shooting variety were made in a top secret lab somewhere in Idaho. Let me check myself here...

*checks*

Well I'll be. Stamped as plan as day on my parts... "Made in Taiwan".

And my understanding is that when one plagiarizes something they essentially lift it. I lift only lightish things and bend at the legs, not the back. At the recommendation of my physician, of course.

sometimes I like it when people are filled with anger and rage. It makes them edgier.

Not that you need to be edgy. The scathing blue eyes, and now the shooting bees and the red font is a bit frightening. Its alsmost as scary as Lindsay Lohan as a blonde.

I was absolutely terrified of the sentence before you even got to the "as a blonde" part.

would it have been better if I said, "Jessica Simpson as a sentient being"?

I think you broke my eyes with that statement. Whatever it was. 15 second repression. That has to be a record.
