There is a fungus in the Amazon that changes an ant’s entire personality—before it forces the creature to go rigid and then sends its fruiting body through the paralyzed ant’s head.

For Medea, lover of cats, skilled scientist and expert cheese taster, the obvious thing to do was to utilize this deadly fungus in her quest for world domination.

Medea weaponized the fungus and created an army of cats to carry and spread the infection by purring sweetly until the victim pet them — to their doom!

Meadea loved her vicious fungi more than anything…except maybe tea time. Her pinky stuck out as her cat army spread her lovely fungus to the victim and every other cat loving sucker out there… “purr away my sweets…make them rot like the mushrooms they are.” She bit a lil biscuit.

The biscuit was moldy but that was the way she liked it. It was her source… of what, Micah couldn't tell. He wanted to know but didn't have the courage. None of us did but Micah was the closest anyone got to the truth… yet even he had his weaknesses, and that was how she got him…

Once upon a time there was a fish who wanted to fly to the moon.

I spent my life searching for the fish that plagued my dreams. I needed it to go to the moon, so I could have the first good night of sleep of my entire life.

It was like the creature was taunting me. Everytime I drew close to the fish it flung boiling tar in my direction and disappeared beneath the waves.

I knew I would have to resort to drastic measures to captured it, so I morphed into my giant squid form and followed the fish into the deep, the boiling tar now a mere annoyance.

Annoyance, yes, but it got in my eyes, which, inevitably, ground my progress, unfortunately, to a halt, so I just settled for living without it.
THE END.

Bob enjoyed his career drawing adult cartoons, until a talking fish changed his life.

Naturally he din’t believe this was happening to him. But it was undeniable a golden fish name Bilbo had requested his aid

The fish asked him to set him up on a date! He was bad enough at getting dates for himself, but he supposed there was no harm checking on Plenty of Fish.

Plenty of Fish was full of boring fish who couldn’t hold a conversation. The fish decided for quality over quantity and search relentlessly for someone with specific characteristics.

Alas, fish conversations tended to revolve around water temperature, seaweed, and laying giant piles of eggs, and so the search for a quality partner—thoughtful, intelligent, humorous—dragged on as the poor fish neared the end of their natural lifespans.

As they swam upstream, one chatty fish suggested they launch an app to replace this seasonal struggle. They’d call it Spawn. In a few fin-swipes right, a fish could make a match, fertilize or be fertilized, and get back to the sea before the wranglers block their swim lanes.

The idea was a hit.
“Brilliant!”
“Let’s do it!”
Everyone had a suggestion. Too many in fact to keep up with.
“Is anyone writing these down?”
The current grew stronger. Shadows loomed ahead. Dating apps would have to wait. 
The bears waited.

Their hunger grew with fearsome rumbles and terrific roaring, until finally it broke free. 
"No, it's not time yet! If you go now, you're going to scare them all away!" The fish, ignored in his attempts to convince them, resumed his solitude. "Oh well, it was a good idea."
