John said "I must love Alex",But Alex replied, "how dare you lick my eye whilst eating bread".There was tension in the house of apes, but Alex was prepared to kill them all.The apes yelled with a roaring voice, "hahah do you think you can define me hahaha".Alex now equipped with a legendary golden, magical staff raised his arm, and yelled "you son of Loki ,do you claim you can define the truth of man".The ape grinned , and all of a sudden Jumped on Alex and killed him.Thee end :D
