...today we are hunting the insipid "self serving short".
you can tell they have been around by the presence of large asks, which are foul smelling, and come out of their ask-hole. They don't sell into the bid, they just dump and sit.
When someone is brave enough to approach this rather simple-minded beast, and nibble away at their fruit,
they retreat, one branch higher, and lay another dump.
Eventually, when the villagers finally band together, they run away in search of easier prey.
is that the sound of scampering feet i hear?
don't wait too long to buy - once those idiots go away, i think we can get back up to $1.00
(today the part of the villain was played by "Anonymous", and the hero's role by "Latimer")
