Fishy, Bunny
When I was eight, my mom said we couldn't get a fish because I wouldn't take care of it. She eventually caved in and she was right. I didn't take care of it.
When I was twenty-one, my mom wouldn't let me get a fish for the same reason. I said: "Mom, I'm an adult! Don't you consider me to be responsible enough to own a betafish?!" The answer was no.
So I deviously bought one that I could keep at work. Well, Sammy had to go home to Brett's because I was *apparently* not taking care of him properly.
Now I want a bunny (at Brett's house -- mom won't let me keep one at ours) but Brett says I have to prove to him that I can take care of an animal before I can get one.
Pfft. I put a note on Sammy's tank that said "Sammy, start cleaning up after yourself or else you'll have to start paying rent to mommy and daddy." Sammy is really ticked off, not only because now he has to clean, but because the sign is blocking the light.

I've had my beta fish for years...don't clean his tank. Mine gets mad and depressed when I do.
Maybe your fish and my fish can be friends...mine needs to get out more. He's so antisocial.

I've burried 4 fish (...or is it 5...) in my lifetime. I cannot go throught the pain and agony of yet another fish burrial. I hope Sammy fares better than Bufford, Leonard, Leonard the 2nd, Godfroy... (and I forget the other fishie's name).

Is this a hint that we should never ask you to look after Nicky if we go out of town?

I once had a fish named Sven.
He died! He died!
Mom said he was sleeping.
She lied! She lied!
Sniff.
