CONCRETE SNOWMAN


300 LB. CONCRETE SNOWMAN. BRING HELP

At first glance this might look like a normal ad in the free section, but upon closer inspection it becomes obvious that this is a desperate plea for help from a homeowner who is being held hostage. The evidence is all there. The snowman has already assimilated and absorbed the penguin who attempted to defend its homestead, and it has all of its weapons at the ready in the toolbox behind it. It’s also generating more 300 pound concrete snowmen in the bucket in order to make manifest its dream of a concrete snowman army. WE HAVE TO GO HELP! Humankind depends on us! I’ll meet you there, right after I undefrost this turkey to use as a weapon.

Thanks, Kelly!

    “I want that concrete snowman. It would go perfectly with the other Christmas decorations.”

    “You need help.”

      Perfect decoration to hang on my 300 foot giant sequoia Christmas tree.

    Weeping snowmen only move when you turn away.
    Don’t. Even. Blink.

      Yeah, but they’re all a figment of this old sad guy’s imagination who didn’t get enough love as a child.

      Can I bring Jay and Silent Bob? They may not actually know how to help, but somehow they manage to reliably stumble on the right path.

    That’s a penguin? It looks like an upside-down rabbit head dangling from his belt to me.

      I think this may qualify as a penguin emergency.

        That is one very flat penguin. A bandaid might not help enough.

    I wonder about the fate of the cameraman. Is this a fast snowman, and moments after the photo was taken, the camera was all that was left? Or is it the slow and inevitable kind, and now the cameraman is barricaded inside the shed, using the neighbour’s unguarded wifi to upload the picture to the poster in the house?

    I used to be a 300 lb. Snowman, but then I dicovered Sparkies Unthawed Meats diet, and lost everything! You, too, can become a cadaver by following this simple eating plan.

    Day 1: 5 meat gerberts
    Day 2: Ancient Crisco and 1 tub of vintage cereals
    Day 3: Unthawed Turkey
    Day 4: Salmnonela Couch
    Day 5: Oh, I’m sorry, no one has made it past Day 4!

          I’m not a betting man, but if I were, I’d say polio, measles, and a raging case of Borderline Personality Disorder.

    Sparky the Snowman
    Knew it had to end this way
    So he grabbed his gun
    And had some fun
    Making all those bastards pay

    Sparky the Snowman
    Couldn’t let the hostages live
    So he took his gat
    And the bird went splat
    Sparky had no more to give

    Sparky the Snowman
    Knew the cops were on their way
    So he said goodbye
    With a terrible cry
    “I’ll be back to haunt your dreams another day!”
