Object: The Parable of The Two Bad Parables
[Special thanks to Bobby Bryant. Your subscription of "Hot
Evolutionary Biologists Monthly" is on its way]
Once upon a time there was this parable that was badly conceived and
badly written. Everywhere he went this badly constructed parable tried
to impress upon people the "truth" of his parable. Whenever people
explains to him that he as a parable is poorly constructed and poorly
written, the parable in question goes into this persecution complex
and blames others rather than himself his own shortcoming.
One day an even more poorly constructed and more poorly written
parable made its appearance. Whereupon the First Parable looked at him
and said: "What a poorly written parable! It makes no sense and it's
poorly written! I'm so embarrassed for him!"
Then an unwelcome epiphany hits the First Parable: "That's exactly
what other people think about me! And all this time I was under the
delusion that I'm being persecuted!". So overcome with shame was the
First Parable that he threw himself in front of an uncoming freight
train, thus ending his short and unremarkable life.

Just musing over whether or not you can actually get hit by an
"uncoming" freight train.

It's a badly written, self referential parable. Awesome! :-)
