The Monster at the End of this Post

Did you read that?

In the title, what did that say? Did that say there will be a Monster at the end of this post???

IT DID? Oh, we are so scared of Monsters!!!

SHHHH Listen, we have an idea. If you do not scroll down, we will never get to the end of this post.

And that is good, because there is a Monster at the end of this post.

So please do not scroll down.











































YOU SCROLLED DOWN!

Maybe you do not understand. You see, scrolling down will bring us to the end of this post, and there is a Monster at the end of this post.

Here, this will stop you from scrolling down. Get a long rope and *tie* your arms to your sides. This way you cannot…











































YOU SCROLLED DOWN AGAIN!

You do not know what you are doing to us! Nowstop scrolling down!

Okay! We, the Disco Mermaids, are asking you nicely to *nail* your scrolling-finger to your mouse pad so you will not be able to scroll down, and we will not get any closer to the Monster at the end of this post.













































All right!

All right!

All right!

Do you know that every time you scroll further down…you not only get us closer to the Monster at the end of this post, but you royally piss us off!

What we need to do is keep your hand entirely away from your mouse or keyboard. So why don’t you *glue* your hand to your forehead! We would just like to see you try to scroll down now.











































Do you know that you are very stubborn?

One more scroll will bring us to the end of this post, and there is a Monster at the end of this post.

Oh, we are so scared!

Please do not scroll down.

Please.

Please.

Please.













































Well, look at that! This is the end of the post, and the only one here is…YOU.

You, lovable, furry old YOU, are the Monster at the end of this post. And you were so scared!

We told you and told you there was nothing to be afraid of.



(Oh, you are so adorably ugly...)




Happy April Fools Day!
And Happy Birthday, Evie
(turning 29…again!)

Looking forward to next year for the "ANOTHER monster at the end of this post" post. It's one of the favorite books around these parts, too, though I would note that it uses fonts better than your post did.

And happy 29th bday, Eve! I look forward to next year for the "Another 29th Birthday Party" post, toooooo.

By the way, all of you that have left comments, you're not the adorably ugly ones we're talkin' about...you're just adorable!
