Why is there a cat on the ceiling?

Thanks to Leda for this one liner, I unfortunately added context

So I was at the market in Cleveland with my parents and there was so much good food. I had some great falafel, I wanted to try the crepes but was saving myself for lunch. My parents wanted to buy some produce for later in the day. Even though I DESPISE tomatoes my dad tossed one into my hands and said, "Hey, let's throw some tomatoes and ketchup (catch up)."

Me, Myself, and I: A self portrait

This was written when I was 12, not 21. 

My hair is the color of,

          An oak tree dying in the forest. 

My eyes are like,

          Chocolate chips baking to a crisp. 

My nose is like a,

          Strawberry, stolen by a squirrel before it was ripe. 

My head is like a,

          Pale orange, rolling downhill

My tongue is like a,

          Grapefruit, both of them can’t live without sugar

My mouth is a,

          Metal mine with rubber band pulleys. 

I live in a bakery,

          And I eat all the strawberry shortcakes, with extra whip cream.

They Might be Giants

Why was the ogress so nice to everyone?

She was very tallerant (tolerant...)
