APRIL 18




Disguised Delicacy
Fruits cannot be judged by their outer coverings, no matter how hairy. This one is quite yummy. It is times like these that make me wish I were equipped with advanced taste capabilities.
Fruits cannot be judged by their outer coverings. Books cannot be judged by their covers. Movies cannot be judged by their corresponding 30-second commercials. Human beings cannot be judged by their physical appearances. This rule can be applied to absoultely everything that isn't one-dimensional. Judging something or someone by their outer appearance can lead to misleading conclusions, and can have you miss out on some of the best things and people in the world. Anything that looks rugged on the outside can possibly be extraordinarily loveable on the inside.

We've all heard it before, and as cheesy as it may sound, for humans, it is indeed "the inside that counts." A good personality lasts longer than mere good looks.





Insect Condo
This sumptuous nugget may look delicious, but internal scans indicate a parasitic infestation! The ship can't stand to even look at these pests, let alone store them. But I had to put my foot down on this one.
On the other hand, in opposition to the previous entry, anything that looks really good on the outside can always be very defying. Sometimes an object or an animal looks safe to touch but is actually rather dangerous, and, most commonly, some things or living beings can look great but are rather disappointing on the inside (a rotten personality to go with great physical appearance, as an obvious example). The term "it looks like a flower but it stings like a bee" instantly springs to mind.

As a side note, the reason Olimar's ship dislikes insects is simply because it's a machine. The ship fears insects in the same way a machine would fear bugs... 'Bugs' being the technical term that refers to glitches in electronics.
