Fable Schmable

I'm reminded of a fable.

A scorpion was trying to get across a river, and asked a nearby frog for a ride.

The frog said, "What kind of asshole do you take me for?"

The scorpion said, "A generous one."

Moved by this compliment, the frog allowed the scorpion to climb on his back and paddled out into the water.

The scorpion stings him.

As they sink, the frog asks Why?

"Because you're an asshole," said the scorpion.

Not a true story.

Now go to fucking sleep, kid.
