The Plea for Monstrosity



To whom this may concern,

 

I, Tibber the Fibber, have come to comprehend a problem facing this society. I was made aware of this issue when I happened to view a concept art for a particular character, that was being portrayed on an art channel. This character was a demon. The story of this demon was one of being cast out of Hell for causing to much destruction and a story unfolded of a demon surviving in a modern world. 

 

I ignored the theological fallacies present in the storyline, but I could not ignore a text bubble next one of the poses for demonic character's concept art design. The character was in a crouched position wearing a surgical face mask. The text bubble stated something to the effect of, "Hey, I may be a demon, but wear a mask you jerk!" [1] Needless to say, I was disturbed.

 

So, I have composed this letter to plea that some might recognize the horror of this situation. How long can we live in a world where demons care for our medical needs? In a world of kindly ghosts [2], and friendly zombies [3] humanity stifles.

 

Where we are told that even monsters have morality than we lose our morality. It is the fact that a monster has no morality that makes it monstrous. Once our demons grow consciences, then our dragons have had their fire snuffed and claws snipped.

 

So, I implore those belonging to that fictional community of ghouls, ghosts, witches, warlocks, sorcerers, recently and/or previously reincarnated undead, demons, werewolves, vampires, etc. to please refrain from growing consciences. It is very inconvenient for dragon hunters to be forced to consider the morality of their actions when the dragon they are hunting alternates from devouring maidens to donating to Covid relief funds.

 

Humanity can’t consider whether a crime such as murder has good qualities than say a banshee could care for its elderly aunt. So, I do entreat monstrous members of the metaphysical plane of fiction to avoid such activities as developing philosophy, art, or any other high and noble thing. You should strive to be as you are, forces of pure evil and darkness.

 

I appeal to the creators of such monstrosities to avoid from giving them a conscience in future. If humans are told that demons can do good, they will undoubtedly become demons, firm in the belief that it’s alright to be a demon if you’re a good demon. Whether you are a good or bad demon you are most definitely bad, and if you are not actually a demon, or fictional, then you should seek to change your ways.

 

Signed sincerely, Tibber the Fibber

 

P.S. Always eat frozen yogurt on Halloween, it gives you better chills down your spine.

McSweeney's Beard Oil, For All Yer Beardy Needs: Part Two

                 The last time I spoke to ye, I had told ye of McSweeney’s Beard Oil, for all yer beardy needs. I had told ye of the miraculous nature of this Beard Oil, and of its wonderous abilities—argh. I had begun the story, but me time fell short. Today, me hearties, I will finish me story, and the tale of how I discovered McSweeney’s Beard Oil, for all yer beardy needs.                The last time I had regaled ye with me tale of oars. I was in the clinker, for public intoxication. Being sorrowed for me lack of facial hair, I had seen the warden of the clinker by the name of McSweeney. His beard flowing like honey for a jar, I asked him how his hair could grow to such lengths. He had told me that it was all because of an oil, and to visit him, once me time was due.                A week later, I was released from my time, and a searched for McSweeney. Alas, I could not find the man, and I was in despair…argh. When I had almost given up hope, a man hailed me from across the

The Dangers of Ordering Ahead

       As I was walking down a lane, I visited a popular restaurant and rang the bell.    "Excuse me, good sir," I said to the man. "I would like a french fry."    The man stared at me for a moment, a dull and vacant look in his eyes, then stumbled away. A few moments later he returned with the newspaper carrying my order. I received the paper, but, to my horror, there was nothing but a single pallid strip of potato.    "What is this?" I inquired, quite perplexed.    The man stared at the single french fry and mumbled. "You asked for a fry."    I rolled my eyes and swallowed the potato. "I meant a conglomeration of french fries. A group contained in a single cup."    The man slowly nodded and turned to leave.    "While your back there," I called. "Bring me a soda. With cherry!" I added, at the last second.    A few moments later, the man returned with my container of fried potatoes and my soda. I stared into the cup.
