Have you ever thought about the darker side of Whyville? The
side that lurks beneath the animated green grass, or even past Grandma as she
hands out donations to newcomers? I have, and believe this. It's not a
pretty sight.
Beneath all of those animated cartoons lies a personality and a person. Some are
vivid or vivacious, and like to help others as much as they possibly can.
However, others are less willing and try everything in their power to destroy
the hard work of others. This is evident in several Times issues,
including that of Thursday, May 30, 2002, where a whole section of the newspaper
was dedicated to advising Whyvillians against possible scams. I say, this
isn't right. What has Whyville come to? Once a lively and cheerful town,
Whyville has turned into a town where everyone must be cautious around their
fellow Whyvillians.
Friendships have been torn apart, and the term "backstabbing" has come into
effect. Fights have blown up over things where it could have been prevented.
This has also become a daily occurrence, and along with this comes broken hearts
and broken friendships. This may even lead to some Whyvillians quitting,
because, there is "too much drama" for them to handle. You could even say
that Whyville has started its own little "soap operas" which stars, you guessed
it, Whyvillians themselves.
Therefore, as I finish this report, I ask you a question. Are you doing your
part to make Whyville a better place? Are you the character in the soap opera
that loves everyone and doesn't get himself/herself into too much trouble? Let
us hope so.
This is rosepedal, trying to warn everyone as they step into the wrestling rings
of Whyville... beware, folks!
