Magic Shake-Ball



QUESTION FOR MAGIC SHAKE-BALL:


Is it true that the two Dwarf African Frogs I bought my kids will live for 5-10 years? That's what the guy at the store said. I can't decide if that's good or bad news.



MAGIC SHAKE-BALL'S RESPONSE:

"Kill men i' the dark!--Where be these bloody thieves?
How silent is this town!--Ho! murder! murder!
What may you be? are you of good or evil?"(Othello 5.1.70-2)

--Iago, addressing Ludovico, an innocent bystander to the scene. Iago's just stabbed his "friend" Rodrigo, but he's pretending like he has no idea what's going on. Because he's all about that kind of evil shit.

INTERPRETATION:

Loud and clear, Shake-Ball, loud and clear. This scene is about UNEXPECTED DEATH and PEOPLE WHO BULLSHIT. Because I can put two and two together, I now understand that the guy at the store lied and our two frogs, Victor Omar and Jeffrey G., may not be long for this world. Still don't know if that's a tragedy or not, though.
