Um, I was just wondering what the little people do when they're not busy. I mean, you know, those little people who live in acorns and ride on thistles and make homes underground and take baths in teacups and all that jazz. Little people!

I mean, they appear in stories from time to time, and a few times they even had stories told about them, but what about nowadays? What would their lifestyle be like?

They'd get jobs down at the Keebler Cookie factory putting peanut butter in cookies 3nodding

I always thought it was a team of psychics who watch all on big-screen T.V.s. eek

I bet it must be hard for them to avoid being seen nowadays, though. And crossing big roads must be a pain, too, because of all the fast cars. But they need to stay near civilization, so that they can snitch food. Or maybe...! Do you think they've cultivated their own crops by now?

Perhaps that have complex underground societies, in which they hoard fruits and grain, obtained by farmland above? Like mice?

But wouldn't the rodent poisons and traps get them, too? ...But they could do it, especially since commercial farms are so big nowadays that no one would notice an occasional fruit or veggie gone missing.

On the other hand, commerical farms usually only have one sort of crop! Living entirely off of, say, cucumbers would not be very easy...

Maybe they make costumes and dress up as mice so that people won't recognize them as little people on first glance? They could probably live underground if they were underneath a public garden and could sneak out during the night to pluck fruits and veggies off the plants.

Would they farm animals? Would they breed mice for their milk and their flesh, kind of like how we breed cows? Would they let those mice out to graze?

You see, they walk upside down inside the dirt, and the center of the earth is their sun.

...OMG! eek That idea, it... That's the sort of idea that books get written on! stressed Someone must write a book on it now, quick!

But wait! Does that mean that their sense of gravity is messed up? I mean, if they spilled some water, would it fly up to the center of the earth or would it fall down and eventually go soaring into the atmosphere?

Oh you know those little people are very tricky little things. They steal your socks when you aren't looking, you know? I know some had stole mine. That's pretty much what they do when they're bored, they steal lost things. That's right, everything you lost, especially lost laundry, is really taken by little people, and gawd who knows what they do with them when they get home. Hopefullying the aren't using my sock as a bathroom, because it's already stinky as it is.

They probably live in our closets with the House Hippos.

I think they might use lost clothing to make new clothes for themselves.. 3nodding

And when people leave furniture outside, they might take it and build houses out of it! Yes, yes, it's all making sense now!

They probably make pretty dresses out of the socks. Warm, wooly dresses! whee

You didn't hear? There are a bunch of jerks out there catching them and putting them in jars now. I saw a bunch of them in a catalog selling for $29.95 each. The idiots are calling them faeries. rolleyes

They steal socks. They love it. For some reason, they have to go over you head to take your socks. That's why yu have tangles and no socks.

I think they make the socks into giant puppets.

Ddint you hear? a long time ago our father's father's father's father's made a deal with them and now they work for us inside our refridgerators (turning on and off the light) our vending machines (giving us our food) and even our cars (making them go). And what you say do the little people get out of this? well they get the food and money that we leave in-between the cushions on our sofas.
