Goddamn motherfucking scorpions

quoting
note1uje…p7y3

When you meet a smooth-talking scorpion that absolutely convinces you that giving them a ride across the river could never end in tragedy because that doesn’t make any sense, remember that they are
A FUCKING SCORPION!!!

It’s not about what they say, or even what they believe because they really don’t think they’ll sting you and kill you both, because that DOESN’T make sense.

But that’s the whole thing, right? They are a scorpion. It is their very nature to sting in times of panic.

Don’t trust scorpions, even when they paint a rosy picture that doesn’t involve you drowning in the middle of the river. Because that will happen, and it’s because you trusted a scorpion.
