SmOke Em If YoU gOt eM, Pooh Bear

This is the story of what happened in the Enchanted Forest when Pooh bear found a pack of cigarettes next to a tree stump, and how Owl burned the Enchanted Forest down, killing all of them because he did not heed his own advice.

...

It was a nice sunny day in the Enchanted Forest. Birds were chirping and everybody was happy, except for, of course, Eyeore, who was wallowing in his own self-pity and complaining about the sun in his eyes, while he was alone by the brook. A certain case of isolation he was.

Nevertheless, Piglet and Pooh were walking to meet Christopher Robin in the meadow. On the way, Pooh noticed something peculiar next to a tree stump.

"What did you find, Pooh?" Piglet asked in his very timid and nervous way.

"its a box of cylinders!" Pooh exclaimed. "Oh boy, now what to do with a box of cylinders!"

"I saw a man in a book once that had those before. I think you smoke them." Piglet remarked. Piglet was very proud to have known what the cylinders were for.

"Aha!" Pooh said. " I think I shall smoke them then."

" ...Pooh Bear, ,what are the benefits of smoking again?" asked piglet.

think . think. think. (pooh thought)

"i haven't thought of anything, have you?" said pooh.

Christopher Robin then finds Piglet and Pooh and figures out why they were late for meeting him in the meadow. Christopher, always knowing what to do, said, "Lets ask Owl! He always is wise."

Tigger also bounced through the meadows, and suddenly found Pooh's cigarettes, which Pooh did not even pick up yet. He took one, banged a rock and a stick together and lit the cigarette up in a speedy fashion. we sometimes wonder about Tigger, whether he had a special Methampetamine connection.

Eeyore showed up by coincidince, after wandering from the Brook to try to find a place where the sun wouldn't get into his eyes. He noticed that Pooh had found some cigarettes.

"Don't bother smoking those cigarettes, Pooh, you'll never quit" said Eyeore, . which was perhaps the most brilliant and knowledgeable thing Eeyore was ever known to say.

"Smoke em if you got em! Thats what i always say..." Tigger said and pounced around, then landed on his stomach and coughed for 3 hours. Kanga had to come and keep him company while Piglet, Pooh and Christopher Robin went to owls tree with the pack of cigarettes to ask owl exactly what the benfits of smoking are.

They knocked on Owls treehouse, and he answered.

"Hi, Owl. Piglet, Pooh and I were wondering if you what smoking is actually good for, since we found this pack of cigarettes next to a tree." Christopher Robin explained.

"Absolutely Nothing" declared Owl. "Give them to me and I'll get rid of em."

So they pondered, agreed, and gave Owl the remaining cigarettes in the box.

...

Later that day, Owl decided to question his own advice, and decided to make a fire and lite one up himself. The fire got out of control however, and burned his own house, and the fire spread to the all of Enchanted Forest and they all DIED.

THE END

God with us, little ones

good story, very encouraging if you like to pass blame on to owls of all the characters. Freaking owls dont even know how to smoke. if it happened its because someone lit it and put it in his beak somehow, his house probably burned down bcause he spit the junk out. Where are you from sir, your ID such a highly respected name I revere? Your tone is rather obscure yet obvious. Why dont you come out and say what you want. It might help me grow and recovery gfrom my addictions. Forgive please if I misunderstand being that I am rather unwise myself.

well bradely,
what was on my mind is how to find, in an imaginative way, some sort of benefit or deep reason why i smoke 15-25 cigarettes a day. i haven't thought of any good reason why i do this. just coming to terms with the negative effects, maybe some insight and i'm hoping a profound spiritual experience may help me free myself from the addiction soon. also, it turns out there may be a lesson in there for people that do not heed their own general advice. i dunno.
