A History of Weedle

By Anonymous

Fads. They're everywhere. Someone thinks of something clever, and if successful, it catches on for a short time. Weedle is a fad, and more. It's considered vulgar and in bad taste by some, genious in its simpicity by others. It's everywhere, but untraceable. It's more than a fad, it stuck. Here is how it became.

What is a weedle?

That is a weedle in its basic form. Weedles tend to vary in size and shape; but why is it so harmful? Back in 7th grade, in a math class, a boy with a speech problem gave an answer to a question. He pronounced zero as 'zeewow'. My group of friends and I soon started stringing together random lines of numbers and reciting them with the strange sound. Eventually, we kept repeating the combination 'zeewow one zeewow' ( 010 ), as it flowed quite well. Soon thereafter the magical number spread to paper which was passed among us to recieve a chuckle or two. This followed up into our 8th grade year, as it was still quite humorous to us. Unfortunately, with our teenage minds and sloppy writing, somebody (no one remembers who) pointed out that is was starting to look like a penis.

Genious! It was so simple that a common person would not think much of it, but under its simplicity lay an idea most foul. An idea that said "Haha you think it's a doodle but it's really a dick". However, our new spawn needed a name, and that name was "weedle". I coined the term, but "weedle" ? Nobody, not even I, knows why.

Unfortunately, it started spreading. People thought it was absolutely hilarious to draw one on someone else's book or paper. When they asked what it was, the perpetrater replied with an answer, and was usually greeted with a groan of disgust or a roll of the eyes, and now another person knew what a weedle was. Soon, it became a school-wide object, pervading unsuspecting people's belongings for the entirety of the year, slowly gaining momentum. However, there are always people willing to push the envelope, and weedles began to become graffiti. The school administration did not take into account the popularity of weedles, as whenever they suspected a pontential weedle vandal, or weedler, another would arise. The drawer of the weedle was also virtually untraceable, as they were always drawn in the same basic style, unlike handwriting. Nothing was safe. Bathroom stall doors, walls, desks; they where everywhere, and they still are.

Now, weedles are used mainly to frustrate teachers and principals in the school, as they know what weedles are and refer to them as such. "Weedle scandals" break out time to time, with a full blown talking to and punishments to boot. Unfortunately, we can't contain this anomaly, as I have heard of people talking about how their friends now know what weedles are. It's absolutely amazing that something stemming from a group of friends has grown to such proportion. Weedles prove that great ideas start small.
