Tuesday's Terribly Tiny Tale

A Fable for The Chronically Disenchanted

Once upon a time, there was a very thirsty bunny who could find no drink.
He looked in his kitchen cupboard, and all he found was vinegar.
He looked in his basement, and all he found was vinegar.
He looked in the nearby pond, and found it was full of vinegar.
Just then, Mr. Goat walked by.
"What's wrong, Ivan?" asked the goat.
"I'm very thirsty," said the bunny, whose name was indeed Ivan.
"Drink this," said Mr. Goat, handing Ivan a glass of vinegar. "It will make you feel better."
"No thank you," said Ivan.
"Suit yourself," said Mr. Goat, and walked away.
Just then, Mr. Weasel walked by.
"What's wrong, Bunny-Boy?" asked the weasel.
"I'm very very thirsty," said the bunny, who was indeed a young male bunny.
"Drink this," said Mr. Weasel, handing the bunny a glass of vinegar. "It will make you feel better."
"No thank you," said the bunny.
"Suit yourself," said Mr. Weasel, and walked away.
Just then, Mr. Pig walked by.
"What's wrong, O Sylvilagus Bachmani?" asked the pig.
"I'm very very very thirsty," said the bunny, who was indeed a Brush Rabbit.
"Drink this," said Mr. Pig, handing the bunny a glass of urine. "It will make you feel better."
"What is it?" asked the bunny.
"Water," said the pig.
"Really?" asked the bunny, examining the liquid.
"It certainly isn't vinegar," said the pig.
"That's a relief," said the bunny, and drank it up.
"Feel better?" asked the pig.
"Bleh. No. That was disgusting," said the bunny.
"Maybe you ought to just stick with vinegar," said the pig.

Dean has tonsilitis. Also, he's a genius. Add the two together, and that's how you get this story.

Tonsilitis? That's good to know.

I was laughing and gagging at the same time while reading this.

Urine?? Yummy, yummy.

Tonsilitis? Not fun.
