Don't Run Around With Scissors... Or Else

Prompt: Journal about 10 reasons why you should not run with scissors--five serious and five ridiculous. You never know when you might need a list like this someday


1. You could die. I mean really. I once saw a re-run of the ER where a guy came in with a pair of scissors stabbed up through his ribcage. Ew... I mean, really. And it would be a painful way to go. Not fun.

2. Sephiroth fears scissors, therefore you should, too

3. They are evil and they cut hair. If you ever touch any, wash your hands immediately or you might be contaminated by their demonic aura

4. You could kill someone else. Yes, really. That wouldn't be fun, either.

5. You could go blind. If those sharp edges make contact with your eye and rip into the cornia and through the pupil, you will never see again. Therefore, caution when handling such a possibly life-altering object is a necessity.

6. You could go blind. Have you see the colors those monstrosities come in?

7. What if you cut your finger open while running with scissors, fall into the ocean and get attacked by sharks? Also, I've always wondered if mosquitoes flock to open wounds. Wanna experiemnt?

8. It hurts to cut your fingers open, and I'm sure it hurts to cut other people's fingers open, too.

9. You could be dismembered. Yes! Literally! Remember that episode of Heroes? Claire cut her toe off with a pair of scissors. (And she has the same name as me, too... bad karma...)

10. If you drop them they will hold a grudge against you for all eternity and you will be cursed for the rest of your life and beyond. That would really suck.


Note: This is ridiculous >.>
