Butterfly Assassins or, Monsterously Hardcore
I was cruising down the road today, past a field of surprisingly fragrant wildflowers, I had my window down, (as I do in pretty much any weather where the ambient temperature is over 10 degrees) when I noticed a change overtake the asphalt. It went from the rather traditional black color, to a near uniform shade of yellow. The reason behind this change quickly became apparent. an inordinate number of butterflies were fluttering about in the field, and frequently flying right into the path of oncoming cars. Splat. I resigned myself to the ensuing slaughter (I certainly contributed to the lush carpet of corpses on my journey), but I was unprepared for one particular butterfly. It was flying in front of my windshield, when it got caught in a draft and blown right through my open window. It hit me square in the face with the equivalent force of a particularly light slap. This exchange was much harder for the butterfly...So, yeah... I totally headbutted a butterfly to death. I can't decide whether this makes me a monster on par with a serial puppy kicker,or just inexpressibly hardcore.

For you to attain to be inexpressibly hardcore in this particular situation, you would actually need to get said massacre tattoed on your face where the actual assassination took place.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is just me hoping YOU are not a serial puppy kicker! I'm thinking you might be a serial headbutter though, OR you're just an inexpressibly hardcore butterfly enthusiast who accidentally took his obsession to the next level. Both very viable options!
