Courtesy of my good friend Jason Mayo, of Out-Numbered, comes, “The Ass Ninja…“:
I am silent.
I am deadly.
You can do nothing to stop me.
I will find you.
You will not see me coming.
By the time you realize I was in your midst, I will already be gone.
I do not know how to show mercy.
I feel nothing.
I will devastate the world around you.
You will be left in ruins.
I am…
The Ass Ninja.
6:18pm – Sunday Evening
I eat Roast Chicken and Brussel Sprouts. I leave the skin on. I chew the bone. I eat half the bird. I drink Diet Coke.
7:02pm – Clean Up Time
I clean up the kitchen. I sneak one more piece of Roast Chicken. Dark Meat. More skin. Two more Brussel Sprouts. My stomach rumbles.
Hsssssssssssss
7:15pm – Bath Time
You finish up with the youngest and take her to her room. You leave the oldest in the shower alone. She is vulnerable. My first victim.
7:16pm – Engage First Target
I enter the bathroom. The air is heavy. It is dense and humid. The perfect conditions. I creep up slowly, like an Ass Ninja dressed in black. I draw the curtain back slowly. She is not paying attention. She has shampoo in her eyes. Unsuspecting. I back into position. My ass is in the shower.
NOW!
Hsssssssssssss
I am gone.
I wait…
7:16pm and 26 seconds…
“EWWWWWWWW!!!!! DADDYYYYYYY!!!!! DID YOU JUST FART IN HERE? DADDYYYYYYYY!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! MOMMMMMMMYYYYYYY!!!!!!”
Direct hit. I must keep moving.
7:18pm – 3 Yr Old’s Room
You stand at her changing table. You are drying her hair. So peaceful. There is laughter. I do not pay attention to laughter.
7:19pm – Engage Second Target
I must move quickly. Do not linger. In and Out. No distractions. No prisoners. Do not look them in the eye. It is not personal…
Wife – “Hey what happened in there? Why was she yelling?”
Ass Ninja – “Who knows?”
I approach them. I am close. I bend over to pick up something that isn’t there.
Wife – “What are you doing?”
NOW!
Hsssssssssssss
Ass Ninja – “Nothing.”
Vanished…
7:19 and 48 seconds…
“UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! JAY WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO? HOLY COW!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! GOD!”
Mission Accomplished.
I must lay low. Regroup. Recharge.
9:37pm – Docking Station
I head to the kitchen to eat more Dark Meat and Brussel Sprouts.
I am armed for my final mission.
Now I wait.
Prepare.
Focus.
10:14pm – Bed Time
You lay in bed reading your “Novel”. Beautiful and silent. Like a sitting duck. About to be roasted in a dutch oven.
10:17pm - Engage
Wife – “I’m tired. Come snuggle with me.”
Ass Ninja – “Just brushing my teeth.”
Percolating…
10:19pm - Lock and Load
I climb into bed and turn out the light.
Click.
Wife – “Good night honey. I love you…”
Tough love.
Ass Ninja – “I love you too.”
Kiss of death…
NOW!
Goodnight
I am sorry.
10:19 and 31 seconds…
ASSHOLE!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? C’MON!!!! GOD!!!! ARE YOU SERIOUS? JESUS, YOU STINK!!!!
My power is great. You are Out-Numbered. I am the Ass Ninja…
