We Never Shit (Mark Wilson)

We hated watching it shit so we removed it’s asshole. We hated the way it breathed so we removed its mouth. We were sick of it listening so we removed its ears. We were sick of it watching so we removed its eyes.

We were left with the most adorable living adjacent dog anyone could want. A ball of fur and limbs wandering aimlessly for us to stroke and save our marriage.

We too eventually got the surgeries, a house of smooth unblemished flesh, finally living peacefully.

People loved us for that.
