 Earlier today, some teenagers were walking down the street and giggling about PETA condemning Obama for killing a fly. As they walked, one said, “Wait, isn’t PETA the something-something-something Animals? A fly is an insect.”

 
This sparked a whole debate about PETA not having the right to speak up on the behalf of a fly, and that they should have to create an entire new organization dedicated solely to the protection of insects and arachnids before they can go on and on about a fly.
 
Furthermore, the teens decided that the cost of setting up a whole new organization, print material, administrative expenses, and advertising, not to mention the cost of hosting a demonstration and educational materials jam packed with statistics about how many microscopic parts of energy our arm could be creating to run third-world countries if we’d just harness it rather than using it for killing poor innocent bugs, would be better spent on feeding starving kids on the street. They were very specific, as if they knew what it would take.
 
“Besides,” one fires off, “he did it like a ninja. I think he is a ninja!”
 
This inspired much talk of how cool our president was, who he could beat up, and whether or not he had super powers.
 
Talk further led to there not being enough money in this country to fund such a dumb organization, and that President Ninja Obama should have just used his flaming eye beams to fry the fly. That would warrant news stories about it.
 
“Humans first, flies last!” One yelled, shooting one arm into the air.
 
This became their new motto as they walked off in the distance out of earshot.
