Little blog of horrors

Really thought he comparison is absurd, Nobody would ever use a WeedWhacker to replace a scythe, they do completely different things, just like you’d never use a scythe to cut down weeds growing out of a sidewalk. If it’s for trimming a lawn it should be against a lawnmower, which would fucking destroy it, and if it’s for harvesting hay it should be against a combine harvester, which would destroy it exponentially more.

“Come on buddy, it’s your time to g–”.

He’s cut short as the weed whacker sputters to a stop. He pumps the starter.

“Time to g–”.

Again he pumps the starter, but this time, nothing. He peers all over the engine, trying to find the problem, despite knowing that it’s internal. You sit there as he mutters to himself:

“Great. Just great. Brand new machine and it quits on me on the first pick-up. Now I’ve gotta do ALL that paperwork ALL over again to get ANOTHER new one…”.

You continue watching with interest, and a thought occurs to you. You giggle.

“I thought you came for me, not for your weed whacker. You could’ve just stayed home and killed it.”
