ALIENS EAT GULF ISLAND FERRY BUT HAVE TO STOP AT TRAFFIC LIGHT
Island’s only traffic light says no to aggressive, imperialist blob

Thu Dec 26 2024
Islanders breathed a sigh of relief today after aliens ate one of their ferries but were forced to stop at the island’s only traffic light, thankfully showing red at the time. Locals looked on in awe as their second ferry engaged the aliens in combat, firing jets of hot air until the multi-coloured blob was forced to retreat and regurgitate its spoils.


Opinions differed as to the motivation behind the attack. “They were here for the Spirit Feast,” said local, Mossy Woodrot (41), “but when they found out they were a day late they got mad and ate the ferry.” “Yes and they were so hungry they’d have eaten the whole island if the light hadn’t stopped them” added eyewitness Oozy Slipscum (67). Others claimed they were sent by some other Gulf Island to expropriate the modern, Island-class vessel. All however were grateful for the steadfast and fearless resistance put up by the island’s only traffic light, that turned bravely towards the approaching foe. “I never thought I’d see the day I’d be delighted to see a red light” said Ivy McBootwet (107). “I used to curse them. Now I salute them.”
