Meet... My Point

I debated whether to introduce you to our mascot. This blog is devoted to serious literature and serious discussion (ok, monologues, you). And posting a meme is the greatest error a serious blog can make. Aside from using those two words side-by-side.

But the cuteness of a guinea pig (already my definition of cuteness - they look like moving furballs) with a baseball hat on, like a 'gangsta', overrules all dispute.

Alternative names: The Point, You
Habitat: The end of the third paragragraph and the very last paragraph.
Appearance: Despite his appearance as a bundle of fur animated by a crew of bacteria or circus fleas (missed me!), he is a rodent. Don't prejudice him for that! Use your forefinger to life the fur overhanging his eyes and there they are! All the better for sneaking, misdirecting and pointing.
Behaviour: Reference in the second paragraph spurs on his entrance, like a circus animal. Ow! Sneaks a red herring in in the last sentence of third paragraph or attacks in his own one-/two-sentence paragraph after the second. Sometimes wears a disguise. Permanently resides in the very last paragraph, denying the conventions of his industry, where the point is usually caged (snort with disgust now) in the very first sentence and paragraph, for SEO reasons.
Description: Has integrity, enjoys a good prank and is cute as heck. Oh, and gangsta.
