Angry
Hello, my name is Alan!, and one day I was sitting in my favorite apple tree and preparing to eat an apple!
But then I noticed that there was a little caterpillar on the apple!, and I wasn’t sure what to do!
Should I remove the caterpillar from the apple?, or should I just place the apple into a safe spot and allow the caterpillar to remain on the apple?…
Hmmm…
The big questions of the multiverse!…
What to do?…
Well, I ended up deciding to just set the apple in a safe place so that the caterpillar could remain on the apple; and then I grabbed another apple, checked it to make sure that there were no caterpillars on it, and then I began eating the apple!
Very good!
See?, I managed to figure out a solution that was both good for me and for the caterpillar!
Yay!
The End
…
Just kidding!, lol, I’ve actually got more to tell you than just that little story about how the caterpillar situation went in a way that I was really happy with!, lol.
Though that still would’ve made a good end to the story, I guess.
I mean, perhaps the place where I’ll actually end this document will be a worse place to end than that pretend ending was!
I suppose you’ll be able to decide that for yourself if or when you reach the real ending!, lol.
So, anyway, I was happily eating the apple and feeling really good about life; and then I saw a lamb come near to where the tree that I was sitting in was, and the lamb really was very friendly and nice!
But then I saw a wolf approaching the lamb to gobble the lamb up!
Oh no!
I didn’t want my lamb friend to get gobbled up!
And so I climbed down the tree and stood between the wolf and the lamb to protect the defenseless lamb!
The wolf growled at me, but I was bigger than the wolf and the wolf ended up not attacking me; and so the lamb had now been saved!
Woohoo!
Well, anyway; once the wolf was out of sight, I decided to head towards town; and so I said farewell! to the lamb and headed towards town!…
It wasn’t long before I reached town, and when I got there I saw that two folks (who I didn’t know) were about to have a gunfight!
I quickly said, “Noooooooo!!!…
Don’t have a gunfight!…” and then the two gunfighters said, “He said it!, not us!…” and then they put their guns away and didn’t do a gunfight.
Many of the others who were nearby got really angry at me though, and they managed to get me banished from town for having prevented them from being able to enjoy the “entertainment” that they’d been wanting to have.
I was quite disappointed in the majority of the leaders of my now-former town for siding with the people who’d wanted me to be banished, and I was still quite confident that I had the moral high ground in regards to the gunfighting-for-entertainment issue; and it was very frustrating that so many people had wanted for one or both of those gunfighters to die just so that they could get some sort of morbid entertainment from watching the gunfight!
Ah well, I supposed that there were sometimes consequences for standing up for more life and less killing; and so whatever.
I still knew that I had prevented human death from happening in that situation, and so I supposed that being banished was a small price to pay for having stood up against the stupid death cult that some of the folks from my now-former town were in!
Anyway, though; now I was heading off towards somewhere, but I didn’t know where!
Who knew what would happen and where I’d end up at!
But I had a feeling that I’d probably end up somewhere decent, and so as I walked and snacked on various fruits and nuts and whatnot I was in a pretty alight mood.
Probably a better mood than one might expect, to be honest!
And only time would tell whether how the future would go for me would be as good as the fairly optimistic attitude that I had was predicting that it would go!…
