Purple Ant



At a show a few years ago a little boy was telling me which feeps he liked and which ones he didn't like (a few of them he thought were scary). He asked which ones I liked and didn't like. I am fond of all my feeps, but he demanded an answer to "didn't like," so I picked out this ant since I despise actual real-life ants.

The boy's dad came by shortly thereafter, at which point the boy informed him, "He doesn't like that one because he hates ants!" I think I may have tried to explain what I meant by "didn't like," but dad was doing that parental nodding thing and didn't really seem to be in need of further clarification.
