Hey kid, I'll give you candy if you come for a ride with me

About Me

I come from a long line of hitch hikers, all wiv bleedin massive thumbs. You see, the thumb is a tremendous boon to the hitch hiker. Helps with work. The only problem was, when I was a child, my thumb was tiny. Not just tiny, like a single sugar puff. Disgustin'!! Even me own mother would reel back in horror, like an anaconda. "Oh, wot is it!? Get it out of 'ere! It's tiny! It's 'orrible, it's revoltin'! Take your tiny thumb and get out of here and never darken my door again!" she'd say. I had to leave the family unit in search of a miracle. I wandered the streets lookin' for the answer, and people told me of a magic shaman. Part man, part hornet. So I went lookin' for him. I went everywhere, I combed the universe in search of the tiny insect shaman. Turns out he was in a local primary school in the bin, reelin' about with the apple cores, like they do. And I stood there with my thumb out, and he stung it! And he stung it!! He grabbed onto it, it was like he was making love to it wiv his sting! In and out! In and out!! More and more!! Oh, the pus! The pain! The black voodoo! The wet jigsaw puzzle! I didnt know what was happenin. Oh, for days I was in a trance, but when I came too, there it was like a fleshy maraca!! A thumb of gigantic proportions! "A miracle," I said "a miracle. You're a true wizard!! How can I ever repay ya?" And he said to me "500 euros" "500 Euros! You wont see penny one from me you slag!" And as I raised my thumb up, to smash his tiny skull in, I could see in his little insect face, I could see him thinking, "oh, I created that monster. I created that thumb, and now it's killing me. Me own beast in creating, killing me dead. The sweet irony". I think he was saying that, although it was a long time ago, and in hindsight, he could have just been shitting himself.
