This Starburst Hot Dog proves I’m not good at anything

I have a tall drinking glass filled with compacted Starburst wrappers because I-forget-why but I guess it looks cool or something, and sometimes (back when I used to eat the things more, mostly in school) I would tear and fold them into flowers and things. People thought it was cool. It wasn’t. and this stupid picture someone sent me highlights that embarrassing fact, big time.

Look at this crap… someone made a friggin hot dog out of 3 Starburst candies and it’s friggin fantastic. It might be the best thing i’ve ever seen done by a human, actually. I’m so impressed with it that i’m giving up my wrapper-molding hobby forever in deference to its quality.

I also haven’t eaten a hotdog in a year or two, I just realized. Not like I have a hot dog quota, but I feel like 1.5 to 3 years is a long time for a non-vegetarian male to go without one unless he’s specifically avoiding them. Which everyone should, of course. but damn. I think I might have a hot dog today. Probably not. but its possible. What’s not possible is me ever making anything as majestic as this candy-dog (sorry, future children – but if you ever see this picture, i’m sure you too will admit that its better than you in a number of ways).

BONUS: This also gives me an excuse to share this Whitest Kids U Know sketch that I like a lot but everyone I show it to seems to have a “meh” reaction to.
