It must be a 'coyote' thing...

I dedicate this blog post to none other, than the one, the only:Wile E Coyote.

He is that infamous coyote we all know from our childhoods - the primary antagonist and enemy of the road runner and the one single cartoon animal that made anvils so popular in Western society. Despite the fact that he chases the 'beep beep' bird and despite the fact that he looks like the love child of a rabbit and some sort of roadkill, we cannot help but find a soft spot for this determined little bugger...

...But there is one thing that makes me think that all the anvils have really got to his head...

I mean, think about it - constantly you see this guy buying all these inventions from ACME - catapults, magnet machines, explosives, you name it. Why you may ask? To get but a taste of that prime royal blue roadrunner meat... We think to ourselves - poor little guy. He is seen as the villain when his one and only crime was to follow the circle of life...

BUT!

With all the money that he has to buy these machines and explosives and whatnot, why. Why

on earth doesn't he just BUY food instead of persistently chasing this bloody bird around like a headless chook? I mean, common sonny jim, use some common sense! 

Fireworks, explosives and catapults cannot come cheap! Even if it IS a cartoon! Seriously, he must be the richest mammal in the world! Besides Paris Hilton's 'Tinkerbell' that is...

And by the way, how on earth does he even GET this money to buy such inventions? Is these something we do not know about our beloved childhood friend? By day we see him as the Wile E Coyote we know him to be but by night, he is  Wile the pimp or something? I don't know!

And i know what you're all going to say 'it because it's the thrill of the chase - its challenging and blah di blah blah' but SERIOUSLY! Put yourself in this guy's shoes! How many times has that poor coyote paused in mid air and plummeted to his death? More than you can count! Do you really, REALLY think that he enjoys it? It's like that stupid song that i absolutely loathe:

'I walked under a bus, got hit by a train, and it felt so good, I wanna do it again'

IT MAKES NO SENSE! 

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO WALK UNDER A BUS... AGAIN!!!

Why?

Ohh! Coz it 'felt so good' THATS WHY!!!

*sigh* It must be a 'coyote' thing...
