The Rollers
The dung beetle just rolled along. They like that sort of shit. They don’t know why and so if you asked them why, they couldn't tell you. Just get out of their way I suppose, for they’re looking for more shit. It’s like their entire intelligent existence is some big secret wrapped up in a ball of shit and moving it from here to there. One of the dungs was even spied out hijacking a ball from one of the other dungs. Imagine that! There they were fighting over a ball of shit until one ran with it and took it home.
One day, as it came to pass, one of the lady dungs was overheard saying, “hey…. is that shit I smell”?

Dungle Bugs. :) I'll say no more, perhaps, but someone could really run with that analogy. I guess they'd have to understand the source of the smell though. It seemed old. But hey... never forget the fertilizer salesman.

me dear sainted mother, upon noticing a person, or a picture of someone with a particularly consternated look on their face, would say:
"Looks like he's smelling shit, don't it?"
