Things to keep in mind while you vote tomorrow.

Many of you may be heading off to the polls tomorrow to cast a your vote for the American
Presidency. However with this responsibility comes a grave danger. How will you entertain
yourselves during those long lineups? Smartphones make this much easier to endure, but for
everyone else here’s a survival guide on how to stave off boredom during this crucial time:

First and foremost, don’t be afraid to try and fistbump as many people as possible (If
they’re willing of course.). Not only are the reactions generally amusing, but you could
even make a friend or two. This will help when your choice of president loses the election
and you need someone to talk to about how everything in your life/country is about to go to
hell.

Once that gets old, wait a couple minutes and then meow very, very gently. If nobody looks
around just wait another minute and try again. If somebody does look, look around as well. Try
to act just as confused as they are. If they accuse you deny it the best you can. This
should help kill a few minutes.

A ball in a cup never, never goes out of style. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen one of
those toy paddles with the ball attached in awhile either. But no yo-yos. You’re not in
high school.

When you’re near the front of the line, take out a coin and flip it. Regardless of which
side you catch it on mutter something along the lines of “Well, that wasn’t who I had in
mind but okay.” and then proceed to vote for who you were planning to vote for anyway.
Sometimes to be entertained you must become the entertainer.

Hopefully this makes the whole process much easier for you. Happy voting! ❤

No story today, only a picture.‏

Hi everyone, I don’t have any stories today. I do have a picture of a bee for you though. Well, okay. Not quite a picture. But if a picture is worth a thousand words than surely describing a bee in detail is as good as a picture, right? Here we go *deep breath*:

So there is this amazing bee that I knew once upon a time. This bee was smaller than the pinhead of a needle but yet had the personality that could light up the whole room, even if that room was the most gloom tomb that ever did get exhumed. The bee had a name but it was rather lame so it doesn’t matter all the same. But in case you’re curious it’s quite frankly Frank.

Now this bee has quite the backstory behind it. This bee invented the tree for example. The world used to be a vapid void of nothingness with no colour and none of the air for the animals to breath. So this bee sat down one day in its little thinking hole and thought of an invention that could create oxygen while being at least partially solar powered. This bee is crazy smart in case you haven’t noticed.

Frank is a very avid fencer. He loves to build fences. Despite his microscopic size he builds fences larger than the Great Wall of China and tears them down completely from existence/time on a regular basis. It is an odd hobby, but it’s one that gets Frank through the work week. Frank is a very busy bee, about as busy as a be can possibly be as I believe it to be.

This bee has lived everywhere, and boy I mean everywhere! Just look at anything you can think of that exists. In your home, outside, random alleyways, whatever. He has lived in that for at least 14 milliseconds at some point in history. Even the parts of history that he has relived multiple times while living in different places each time. Intergalactic time-traveling nomad is a title that doesn’t even come close to describing the craziness that is Frank.

Did I say intergalactic? You bet I did! Frank’s been all over the place. I know because he has shown me a tiny suitcase with stickers from Jupiter on it and everything. He even has this adorable little bee spacesuit. I’m also amazed that he can carry a suitcase that would be considered large for a human but again this is the bee that invented the tree you see.

Frank’s favourite movie is not a human movie, but rather a documentary about movies that he made himself. Narcissistic? Very much so. But I’ve watched part of this movie and he covers /everything/. Even that time last Thursday evening when you were brushing your teeth.

Frank is your biggest fan. No matter where you are in life or what troubles you may face Frank will always think of you. Except for when you are thinking of him. For some reason the two of you may never think about each other at the same time. It makes him very uneasy and prone to sadness.

In the past he has been known to purposefully place a bet on the losing team during the Super Bowl just to make someone feel better about themselves. You know that situation where someone needs money but they’re too proud to accept any help? Frank knows what’s up. If he doesn’t have the money on hand he’ll go out and earn some just for the sake of making the losing bet.

Not believing in the concept of personal possessions Frank does not own very much. Although he does own enough stuff that I believe he may have been pulling my leg when he told me that one. Having the skills that he has makes him extremely wealthy so he always gets what he needs in exchange for a considerable donation. Ever wonder how a movie studio stays in business after a string of terrible movies? How a writer continues to find a way to publish without selling any books? This is why.

Although he does not believe in personal possessions he has not problem possessing persons quite frequently. But the only thing he ever does when he possesses a person is to make them forget that thing they were going to do after they walked into another room. Frank spend a rather unhealthy amount of time doing this although I’m not sure if there’s really any such thing as a healthy amount of time to spend on this activity.

Frank’s favourite superhero is the Hulk. He doesn’t view the Hulk as a person who becomes a monster when he’s angry but rather as a monster who becomes a rational person after working out his issues. Frank likes to consume a lot of media backwards. He finds Twilight empowering because he read it as a story about a woman who cures her own vampirism, leaves an abusive relationship and distances herself from the antagonist.

Musically Frank admittedly isn’t very diverse. His donated Zune mp3 player contains only music of the Calypso genre. Thousands of the greatest Calypso hits in fact which struck me as a surprise because I wasn’t even aware it had a large enough scene to produce that many songs in the first place.

Clothing is something that plays a rather large role in Frank’s life. I’m not sure why. First of all he’s a bee and second of all he’s so small that you couldn’t see any of his clothing anyway. But he invented trees and I just sit around playing video games all day so what do I know right? I suppose maybe it has something to do with his background in film may have something to do with it. At any rate any picture that Frank has him wearing a different outfit. But you can’t see him anyway so . . . As long as he amuses himself I guess.

Well, there is an artist’s rendition of Frank that someone commissioned once so that something could potentially be shown to the curious at some point. I know I said I was only going to provide a descriptive picture delivered through words but you know what? I love you guys. Below is an enlarged picture of Frank being drawn like a naive French girl.
