A Coworker Asked This Guy To Watch Her Plant For 4 Days. Here’s What He Did

ADVERTISEMENT

When this guy at an IT firm in Augusta, Georgia was asked by his coworker to take care of her plant while she was gone from work for 4 days, he decided to take the plant out to see the sights and sounds that an ordinary office plant might otherwise never get to experience.

He and the plant, a philodendron, painted the town red, having fun in some of the city’s most popular public spaces and even teaching it to drive (judging by the photos, it went really well – I’ve heard that philodendron plants are quick learners).

There is a beast with heart of cold stone that dashes like lightning, shreds flesh from bone. // Bewitched by this beast, I fell to my knees. My mouth babbled madness and mumbled soft pleas. // I stared down the ravenous, gnashing dark maw of a cute cuddly kitten with yarn in its paw
