Worse Stories For Worse People

Pinkie Pie was standing at the counter of the Sugarcube Corner. The store had just opened for the day, and she was anxiously waiting for her first customer. She was trembling with excitement.

All the baked goods were waiting inside the glass display case. Many icing colours were splayed all over the display case. All the colours of the rainbow were proudly displayed.

The door opened, and the bell chimed. Pinkie’s eyes widened…

...and widened more when she saw her customer.

He was big man, and he had a big eyebrow. No, he did not have two large eyebrows, he has ONE eyebrow!

Pinkie knew it was rude, but how could she not stare at the caterpillar on his forehead? She was blushing, embarrassed for her own rudeness, and also his appearance.

“Hello, may I have an eclair?”

“Um, don’t you have one already?”

“Excuse me?”

“Sorry! Eclair coming up!” Pinkie said, looking for the eclairs.

The single-browed stallion looked among the pastries that Pinkie had cooked, and noticed a “chocolate caterpillar”, a doughy treat with a chocolate filling.

“May I have, urm, one of those chocolate caterpillars?”

“Sure!” Pinkie said, holding back laughter.

She put the treats in a bag and placed them on the counter.

“Will that be all today, sir?”

“Yes, I suppose.”

“Say, I don’t think I’ve met you before, what’s your name?” Pinkie asked him.

“My name is Bushy Brow.”

Pinkie burst into laughter.
