Funny Dear Human...

((Sometimes the silly bug bites))


Dear Human,

I couldn't help but notice that you do not understand me. You sit there at your desk all the time with your hands and opposable thumbs and large brain, yet you do not understand my simple body language.

When I look at you, you are supposed to feed me. This is how it works. You think you are the dominant species, but ah, who's the one that gets his meals delivered to him and poo cleaned up by a so-called higher life form on a regular basis? Me. You only -think- you're the one in charge.

How can a fish be typing, you ask? Believe me, you don't want to know. It would blow your feeble human mind.

Anyways, I just wanted to write you to say that I will continue to beg and pout and look adorable until food is delievered into my domain. I would also like to remind you that my tank is mine and you should stop looking at it. I know you like it, and you want to live in it, but it is MINE. This is why I flare at you whenever you look at it. Got to remind you who's boss.

Also yesterday you destroyed my bubblenest and I worked SO HARD on it. The ladies, they would have been impressed, but no, you had to get out that scary siphon thing and mess it up. Now it is ruined and no female would ever put her eggs in THAT.

I will now resume my usual begging routine.

Love,
Volly

 

That has to be the funnies thing I ever read.

 

ROFL!! Love it! It almost sounds like a cat writing it.

 

ROFL! That was funny!

 

That's hilarious! Thanks for sharing it with us.

 

Lol that's great

 

That is too funny! I know exactly what you are talking about! Here are a couple of my beggers!

 

Very good, very good!!! I have to tell you, sometimes I decorate my tanks and wish I could live in them, they're so pretty!

 

ROFLMBO!!!

Change the signature and it could have been one of my kids

lol...volly reminds me of Pinky and the Brain... is he plotting to take over the world? (Zorf!)

 

Hillarious. Makes me want to get a betta...but I must resit the urge...no room for one

 

its funny but its sad cause that fish is sooooooo right. my fish rule whatever free time and brain activity I can muster after a hard days work.

 

Volly says that he is not, in fact, planning -global- conquest. He doesn't like antarctica, so someone else can have that.

He also says that MM's pictures perfectly illustrate the lack of communication between bettas and people. Look at those faces. They are CLEARLY asking for food, yet their bellies are not filled!

 

Haha, thanks for sharing! I'm just going to casually NOT let my boys read this. It might give them even more ideas...
No Draconis, get away from the keys, GET OFF, noooooo stop

***************

Haha overpowered human!!! Volly, I feel your pain. I dance and dance and dance but for what. Nothing but a laugh and a point "Look at him" they say "hahaha" they go. I'm sick of it.

Signed, Draconis

Sorry, he got me. You really DON'T wanna know how they type...

Hooxeii, well done, it cheered my FrI morning up, and woke me up trying not to laugh out loud here!!

 

Cute and funny! I really can't imagine how they'd type.

 

Great story Hooxeii!

I'm glad I have my computer password protected so my boy Wriggley doesn't sign on and get ideas. Otherwise I would have to Quarantine this thread. ROFL. (just teasing).

Whatch out when you go clean his tank!!! I think he has planned a attack!!!!

 

LOL!!!

I needed that, thank you!

 

How can a fish be typing, you ask? Believe me, you don't want to know. It would blow your feeble human mind.

Since I imagine jumping on the keyboard might cause either suffocation or a short circuit, I'm going to put my money on fish-telekinesis.

 

that was funny, can't wait till you write more

 

hooxeii, I think we need to be checking our email and internet history more often...I came in this morning and found water on my keyboard! I checked my history and found some very naughty betta pics on my computer! I think I am going to have to put some parental controls on here to keep those naughty boys from being tempted!! I also think my boys have been talking to yours! It could be there is a plan in the making...

 

Oh, no, another thread gone mental...

 

lol, I can hear my boys saying those things right now! ohhh look at me flutter my cuteness at you....ohhh if I just wiggle a little harder and do our special "trick" just one more time, you'll feed me again! my cats beg all the time, my fish beg, my daughter begs.....lol. at least they know who to come and beg to! ME.

 

Just so you know, over the weekend Draconis decided to try a new trick at feeding time. If he sees the hand come near the surface and it takes too long in his mind, he jumps up for it now... He never did this before. He HAS read this thread.
Sneaky little beggar!! It still won't work,

 

Volly's influence is spreading, then. He jumps like a maniac around feeding time.
