Sunflowers Are Creepy.

The other day, Roommate and I were walking and I saw some withering sunflowers. I thought I would tell her something I've never told anyone before: I think sunflowers are scary. She laughed at me, but this is no joke.

They are so huge, they might as well not even be a flower. They're practically mutants. Look at the freakishness of their stalks! And the flower part is bigger than my head. That's just not right. Every time I pass a sunflower, I think about it coming to life and grabbing me with its huge leaf-hands. Then I realize that sunflowers are, in fact, alive and I wonder what it may be thinking about me.

Don't even get me started on the little hairy fibers all over it, either. That shit creeps me out.

Daisies are nice, and so are dandelions. Why can't we all just forget about sunflowers and stick to daisies and dandelions? They're basically the same thing, just smaller and less horrifying. What good do sunflowers really do for the earth anyway?

Nothing, except frighten me and possibly some small children.
