    The Thread asked the candle "Why do you dissolve when I burn". Candle said "You are in my heart, if you suffer I am bound to shed tears for you. That's Friendship."......Good Evening Friends

      There's a fine line between feelgood and kitsch. Where are you?

                Aside from the sickening sentimentality, it's also wrong. The wax burns, that's what keeps it lit. What, did you think the wax was only there to hold the wick up?

                            Once there was a bunny called Flopsy. Flopsy was a very happy bunny; she'd spend hours every day bounding around the sun-kissed fields, eating grass and talking to the other lovely bunnies. Then one sad day, Flopsy got very sick. She could no longer bound in the field, the grass tasted bitter and all of the other bunnies shunned her. Flopsy didn't know what to do, she was so sad and dejected... UNTIL A FARMER CAME ALONG AND SNAPPED HER NECK BECAUSE SHE HAD MYXOMATOSIS. HE THEN LAID POISON FOR ALL THE OTHER RABBITS BECAUSE THEY HAD IT TOO.
