Bad Tuna

After eating dinner, Bob heads to bed feeling awfully sick. Apparently, he ate that darned tuna in the back of the fridge even though he knew it was bad. So he falls asleep. However, this is where the TRUE STORY BEGINS. Bob wakes up suddenly in a weird land. At first he thought of it as a dream, but it felt so real. Unless that it was that tuna doing it. Bob tries jumping off a ledge to try the falling method to wake up, but he just ends up hurting himself. Frantic, Bob starts running around like a crazy kid, but runs into this big guy who tells him that he ate mystical tuna to transport him to the Tunaverse, a land of weird and complex individuals. The only way to get back to his home is to travel to Tunawell and jump down it. However, it was miles away through several areas containing some of those…………..individuals. Bob sighs and continues on his way, jogging like an idiot. He first runs into a forest where he meets a dumb farmer kid named Willy. After exchanging some very unneeded conversation, Bob asks where he should go, but only gets a prolonged “uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh………” Bob just goes the same direction and arrives in an open field. He meets a family of cannibals, though he doesn’t really know they are. They invite him in for some drinks and bread, all the while they stare at him with watery mouths. Leaving although asked to stay the night, calling them a nice group of people, and heads into a cave. It got darker as he went in until it was darker than black itself. Trying to see where he was, he lit a match. Suddenly, from behind, two big, round eyes slowly open from behind him and let out a creepy “Hi.” With bloodshot eyes and a high pitched scream, Bob got the heck out of there while the creepy being just laughed it up all the way. He ran past a Speed Racer reject and eventually smashed into a sign. Looking up at the sign after losing a tooth, the sign indicated he was at Tunawell. Bob did a funny dance when the muscle guy from before walked up, saying “welcome back.” Bob realized he was where he started. Asking why he was sent around in a circle for no reason, the big guy’s reply was “it was funny and you learned a lesson……Eating tuna with green fuzz is a bad idea.” Bob’s eyes narrowed and jumped down the well and lands in his bed. Bob sighs and smiles as he just simply goes back to sleep. Except when the screen dims, he hears "Welcome Back!!." Knowing the same voice form the caves, a little girl scream can be heard when the screen is black.

Obituary

Bob “The Tunanator” Daniels

Bob Daniels died in Las Angelus, California on October 21st, 2004 after he choked on a bad rutabaga that he had removed from his pantry. The rutabaga seemed to have been several weeks, maybe a month old and has some moss growing on it. This contributed it to being too big to swallow and thus leading to Bob’s demise.

Bob was born January 30th, 1944 in Austin, Texas. Bob was an orphan until being adopted by Jack and Jenna Daniels in 1950. He was an average student and did not go to college. Bob worked as an office supervisor for 20 years for the Gerald Company. He also had a few freelance voice acting jobs here and there, earning some extra cash. Bob was well known in the country for his actions in the Tuna Rebellion, where he slaughtered many of the Tuna Beasts before their leader, Popo Tuna, retreated back to his domain for the time being. He gained the nickname, the Tunanator for this event. Details on the Tunaverse are still unknown to the world.

Bob has no spouse or child, and his parents and their family had passed on without any known relatives to him as his parents were distant. However, bob did have an apprentice which he trained to fight the Tuna Beasts. Young Tunar now takes on his master’s duty to fight Popo Tuna.

There will be a mourning day at Ground Tuna on November 1st, in memorial to the day when the Tuna Rebellion ended. Tunar will also being accepting worthy ones after the service to build up a force to fight the Tuna Beasts as his master, died before he could do the same.
