Otters and Fruit by the Foot

    Hello everyone, I figured I would write a post today because it's been four days since the last one, and before I started sucking for like two weeks I was posting about once every three days. Of course, that means I'm going to have to start thinking of awesome things more quickly, but hopefully that won't result in a drop off in quality. So, first thing's first, or second I guess since I took a while to get to this point, but if you'll remember from my last post I was going camping. I don't really feel like writing a ton about it because I'm super lazy as you can probably tell, but luckily one of the people I went camping with has a blog as well, and as it so happens she wrote a little bit about it. (Also, she gave a shout out to my blog in her post, so I feel like I should return the favour), so if you're interested in checking out a sweet blog (I assume less awesome than mine, but probably still cool) then click the link below.

    Second thing's third, that means it's time to start talking awesomeness. I've started to compile a list of awesome things, so I don't have to think too hard when I go to write a new post. If you want me to add something you think is awesome to that list you should tell me what that awesome thing is and if I think it sucks I will ignore you, BUT if I think it's awesome then...well it's awesome, so I guess I would write about it here because that is the whole point of this blog. Today's topics are otters and fruit by the foot. Try not to read too far into the pairings of topics in each post, I assure you it's purely coincidental (usually). Remember, becoming awesome is not a spectator sport, so get out there and start being awesome.

Otters

Level of Awesomeness: Adorable

What Is It:

Otters look like this:

And do things like this:

And this:

    In conclusion, otters are over-the-top adorable and can play basketball better than the Miami Heat. Also they can swim and spin and flip and eat sea urchins which look like a combination of a porcupine, a pincushion and a cactus.

Otters eat these just for the lolz

Why Is It Awesome: Because otters are better than us. They are cuter than us, play sports better than us and eat pointier food than us. May we all learn to be awesome by doing as the otter does.

Fruit by the Foot

Level of Awesomeness: One Foot, Two Foot, Red Foot, Blue Foot

What Is It:

Feet of fruit*!

Look at some fruit. Now look at your foot. Now imagine if the fruit was the size of your foot, maybe even bigger! Also spread out so it's about a millimeter thick (0.04" for all my American friends), and in a striplike shape (see picture), and possibly not made of any actual fruit. If my calculations are correct that would make for one awesome snack food. Well maybe not at my age when people start worrying about their health and well-being and not letting your teeth decay out of your mouth, but back in elementary school Fruit by the Foot was where it was at. Anyone who was anyone had a Fruit by the Foot in their lunch. I didn't because my mom cared about eating healthy and whatever, but that didn't stop me from idolizing the kids that did because having a Fruit by the Foot was so clearly awesome.

Why Is It Awesome: Because when you are a kid having candy is super awesome, and having candy for lunch at school is super-mega-awesome.

*May not contain actual fruit.
