Cabbages have no honer

Post by Astral »

I was at work today, sitting on the counter looking lonesome, when a cabbage roled through the door, totaly at random, coming to rest by the scanner. I stared at it, it stared back, looking all smug and sure of itself, as though it knew something that I didn't and was laughing at my ignorance.
About a minuet later, I spotted one our regular shoplifters, walking with a hurried pace away from Jamey (one of my colegues) toward the door. Sudenly he broke into a run, taking his chances that he might not get caught, while all the while I just sat there, looking at the cabiage in suden realisation at what it was smiling about. The bumbling theif totaly naglected to watch where he was going, trod on the offending flora and promptly fell forward, knocking a pile of boxed fans that were stacked to one side, which proceded to fall on top of him, knocking over a SoftWare stand in the process. Releaved of his goods, Jamey and Olly grabbed the chav by the armpits and 'escorted him' from the premicies and into the awaiting arms of the police, all the while I just sat there, looking bewilderdly at the scene of distruction. It would take us at least an hour to clear away, more to the point I'd only just cleaned the bloody Software Stand, the fruits of my labour sprawed across the floor like fallen soldures on a battle feild.

The cabage was about the onlything in the area to come away realativly unscaved, the old lady who's shoping bag had dropped out of wandering back in and simply picking it up again as though nothing had happend...I could practicaly feel it sticking its tong out at me....
Vegtables have no honer.

Look at 'em! Their leaves are so....... green! That's a sure sign of plotting if I ever saw it!

I suspect they are just henchmen for the tomatoes.

What? A Cabbage throws itself into harm's way, saving you from the evil shoplifter, and you disparage its honor? At leaf the carrots and potatoes were rooting for it, while the celery was stalking the thief and reporting via the grapevine...

I'm not sure where you are picking these puns, but they are starting to grow on me. :D

Can we all just drop the subject and leaf it alone?

If ya can't take the heat, beet it. The rest of us will enjoy the fruits of our labors. Still, I hate to see someone's dreams squashed. Perhaps the everyday rind was too much. Maybe a song would help.
