The Worst Heist

My scales creak. I undulate over and around these bright jewels, these eggs. Each one part treasure, part ward, part of me. Some are mine. (MINE!!!!) Some belong to others, but I guard them just the same. My jaws clack and clench, grinding my anger into sparks that fly from my eyes.

They are coming. They always do. The thieves. Worthless streaks of snot. To a man, a waste of skin and air. Brutish, pointless, dull-witted. Their bald stupidity is a slap in the face to us.

They come and take what is not theirs. Every time, we roar. We rage. They get their pilfering paws slapped, and we snarl and grumble.

Each time we are held in check. We meekly pay our subscription, and pour balm on the bubbling wrath. It's OK. It was dealt with. Swiftly, too. They are gone now.

But we know they will be back. We know they will do it again. And again, and again. My fury shimmers under my skin, simmers in my throat. It threatens to liquify their eyes and their insides and melt the flesh from their bones. I will see them burn.

Try me you fucking plagiarising bastards. Try me!

    As of my last update in January 2023, I don't have specific information on an "Insta360 Community Forum Operation Guide." However, if you are looking to create or enhance a community forum for Insta360 users, you might consider engaging a Custom Web designer in Chicago who can tailor the forum to meet your specific needs. A skilled web designer can provide a user-friendly interface, implement essential features, and optimize the forum for a seamless user experience. Ensure that the designer has experience with forum development and can integrate any necessary customization to align with the goals of your Insta360 community. For the most accurate and current guidance, it's recommended to refer to official Insta360 documentation or seek assistance from a web design professional. Regards: https://wizspeed.com/
