Right is Right, and Other Racist Hand Slogans

Flippy is a solid name for a whale, I'm convinced of that now. Initially I thought it would be cliche but really, how many whales named Flippy have their ever been? Flippy is good, Flippy works.

Flippy would be a fantastic whale but not in that conceited human-centric way where he/she has some pointless goal that it works for. No, Flippy would be a fantastic whale in the sense that he/she always bred successfully and lived a long, generally pain free life in a very pleasant part of the ocean. Flippy would never eat more than necessary and would trouble no other creature in the ocean. One day, while watching those show off dolphins, Flippy sees one do a flip and the inclination to do so comes over him/her. But because Flippy is a fantastic whale, practicality wins over and the notion of flipping is soon discarded into the pile of forgotten memories that are buried in the graveyard of the whale's mind.


I'm writing all of this with a busted hand by the way. Iris I love you. I wanted to see how well I could write with one hand after falling down the stairs. Not very well, but I can make do. Just like Flippy would in the event that he/she was ever captured and forced to perform at a theme park. Flippy wouldn't escape. Flippy would make the best of the situation.
