Prompts = Cymbal, Rabid, Flunky
Story 1 — Muppet Show Personality Test
I took one of those personality tests the other day; this one guaranteed they’d map my personality type with 100% accuracy to one of the characters from the Muppet Show.
I figured I’d be someone cool. Maybe Rolf. Or the guy who plays the sax. I knew I wouldn’t get the stressed out Kermit. Or his flunky Scooter. Or Fozzy with his terrible jokes.
Nah — it’d be someone in the band.
And it was.
Just…
I got Animal, ok? Animal! You know who I’m talking about, right? The rabid drum-smashing, cymbal-crashing maniac. Animal!
I no Animal! Am Not!
Story 2 — Non-Violent Bank Robbery

Ferdinand wanted to show the world that crimes could be committed without violence.
First, he became a crime boss by having business cards printed showing it as his job title.
Next, he needed to be the boss of another criminal, so he asked his best friend to jaywalk. That done, Ferdinand asked his new flunky to adopt a dog and make it look rabid using baking soda.
Ferdinand also procured a cymbal before robbing his local bank — loud crashing noises would help keep customers and staff in line.
Years after the failed crime, Ferdinand wrote a book about his experience.
