The Potato Tragedy

Meet the the female potato, Potato-eetah. According to WordWeb Dictionary, a "staple food of Ireland".

Meet the the male potato, Potato-frito. Also a "staple food of Ireland", according to WordWeb Dictionary.

One day our male and female potatoes meet...

Potato-eetah digs a potato in uniform.

The two potatoes fall in love.

Suddenly, Potato-eetah is attacked by a wild African elephant, named "Sue".

Potato-frito is FRANTIC, he doesn't know what to do.

Potato-frito tries desparately to free his new found love from the elephant.

He fights with Sue (the elephant) with all his might in a vain attempt to free Potato-eetah.

Yeah .. he's still trying.

Potato-frito is STILL trying to wrestle Sue The Elephant to the ground. Stupid potato.

Sue (the elephant) eventually wins.

Sue walks away calmly. Even though she's a wild African elephant, and you'd think she'd be hungry for potatoes, she was actually just out to stomp a potato or two for fun. Her work is done here.

And so our two potatoes ... first strangers, then friends, and almost lovers ... are dead. Thus ends the story of the Potato Tragedy.
