A Tale of Bad Pumpkins

Or, Something's Rotten in the Pumpkin Patch

Hi, Station Agent here. I'm following the example of the Unruly Mob and bumping this great post by my buddy Jumper for Halloween. Like every great holiday tale, this one should be re-told every year.

Once upon a time, there was a pumpkin patch. The pumpkins were foolish, and allowed a very bad ruler to come to power:

The Pumpkin Ruler was self-indulgent, crude, and not very bright:

He kept company with some other nasty pumpkins:

Together, they did some very bad things:

The other pumkins weren't too worried, though, because they were satisifed being consumers:

One day, however, the pumpkins learned that one of the Pumpkin Ruler's friends was not very nice to the little pumpkins:

This made the other pumpkins feel bad:

Then, they learned that it was not an isolated event:

The Pumpkin Ruler started to give the other pumpkins a very bad feeling inside. They finally realized that they needed to purge themselves of the Pumpkin Ruler:

So they rid themselves of the Rotten Pumpkin, and there was Peace in the pumpkin patch.
