Mourning

What can depress Hank McCoy more than anything? Well, we'll have to find out! This is just silliness galore, hope you enjoy. No, don't own them.
"But…but they were supposed to survive a nuclear war?" Hank sniffed.
Scott put an awkward hand on Hank's shoulder, "That was just a myth."
Hank looked in his blue hands and found the empty wrapper, "But, I don't understand. How could they just go under?"
Kitty, sitting nearby, couldn't answer that, not really, "It was a corporate decision Hank. The CEO's valued their pocket books more than taking care of their employees."
Hank, unable to stand it anymore stood up and paced to the door, "I WILL find some. No matter what it takes!" They watched his stride out of the school, and turned to each other. The gloom left with him as they started to chatter amongst themselves about the students.
At a grocery store in Fort Worth Texas, a utility worker opened the donut case to get a couple of donuts to find a half empty wrapper. The snack in question was the latest offering of the Twinkie wannabe. She took it back to be scanned out after she clocked in, and ate her donuts, and her fellow employees speculated as to what could have happened.
"Maybe it was a really smart mouse," one opined. "You know, like in 'Pinky and the Brain'?"
"I thought he was just going to take over the world!" the utility worker exclaimed.
"Maybe it's his first step in doing just that!" he said. They both laughed and went on with their day, never knowing the blue mutant who'd visited the store.
Okay, I was the Utility Clerk in question. I found the wrapper of Ron's Tasy Cakes latest offering, which looks like twinkies. Go ahead and laugh, yes, the last part really happened. Who know? Maybe it was Hank!
