Lasagna, Plushies, and Bikinis: Brenda’s Island Invasion
I came to this tropical island to escape. After months of Brenda and John Price’s unrelenting harassment, I thought I’d finally earned some peace. A secluded resort, crystal-clear waters, and not a single plushie in sight. It was perfect.
Until it wasn’t.
It started on my third day. I was lounging on the beach, sipping a piña colada, when I noticed something unusual. A group of tourists waddling down the shoreline in matching floral bikinis—two women and one man, all grossly overloading the structural integrity of their swimsuits.
I squinted, and my stomach dropped.
Brenda. John. And a third, ominous figure—a six-foot plushie in a bikini, being carried like royalty on a portable throne.
“Oh no,” I muttered, sinking deeper into my lounge chair. Maybe if I stayed perfectly still, they wouldn’t notice me.
But it was too late. Brenda’s sharp, beady eyes locked onto mine like a heat-seeking missile. She waved enthusiastically, her arm jiggling with the force of it.
“Sweetie!” she bellowed, her voice cutting through the sound of crashing waves. “I told you, you can’t escape family!”
Minutes later, they were surrounding me.
Brenda plopped onto the lounge chair next to mine, her bikini straining against her 400-pound frame. She had a tray of lasagna—of course she did—and the smell of it made my stomach churn.
John, sporting an equally hideous bikini and an inflatable flamingo floatie, leaned in with a sinister grin. “You didn’t think you could just run away, did you?”
“Seriously?” I groaned. “I’m on vacation.”
“Exactly,” Brenda said, unpacking plates from a tote bag covered in pictures of Waddles the plush penguin. “What better time to reconnect? I even brought the lasagna!”
I stared at her. “How did you even get here?”
“Oh, we have our ways,” John said cryptically, pulling out a smartphone and pointing it at me. “Smile! The HFBoards crew is gonna love this.”
Sure enough, John had already created a thread on HFBoards.
“Operation Bikini Break-In: Plushies and Lasagna Go Tropical!”
His post read:
“Hey everyone, just a quick update from the field. We tracked down NotYourPlushie to this remote island resort. Brenda’s ready to win him over with her lasagna again, and we’ve got Waddles rocking a bikini for morale. Stay tuned for updates!”
The replies were instant.
RangersForever:
“Dude, this is starting to sound like a crime.”
BruinsBro88:
“Pics of Waddles in the bikini or it didn’t happen.”
John Price (PlushieMaster387):
“Pics incoming. Also, NotYourPlushie is trying to play it cool, but we know he’s thrilled to see us.”
I groaned as John turned the camera on me.
“Say hi to the fans!” he said.
“Leave me alone,” I snapped, swatting the phone away.
But Brenda wasn’t done.
“Let’s not argue,” she said, placing a massive slab of lasagna onto a plate. “I made this just for you, sweetie. It’s my tropical twist—pineapple and coconut in the sauce. You’ll love it.”
I recoiled. “That sounds disgusting.”
Brenda gasped, clutching her chest like I’d insulted her very soul. “How
dare you? This is my masterpiece!”
“Let’s just feed it to him,” John suggested, wielding a fork like a weapon.
“I’m not eating that,” I said, backing away.
But Brenda was faster than she looked. She cornered me against a palm tree, the plate of lasagna inches from my face.
“Eat it,” she commanded, her voice low and menacing. “Or I’ll post the video of you crying over my original recipe again.”
“You wouldn’t.”
“Oh, sweetie,” she said, grinning. “Try me.”
Just as I was about to give in, the situation took an even stranger turn.
A boat pulled up to the shore, and out stepped
Donald Trump, wearing a Hawaiian shirt and a straw hat.
“What’s going on here?” he demanded, surveying the scene. His eyes landed on the lasagna. “Is that food? People are saying it’s the best lasagna. Tremendous lasagna.”
“It
is the best,” Brenda said, puffing up with pride. “Would you like a plate?”
“Absolutely,” Trump said, grabbing a chair.
No sooner had Trump taken his first bite than
Hulk Hogan appeared, sprinting down the beach in his iconic red-and-yellow gear.
“Brenda! John!” he roared, pointing dramatically. “I’ve been tracking you two for weeks. Your lasagna has gone too far, brother!”
“What’s your problem, Hogan?” Brenda snapped, rising to her full, intimidating height.
“My problem is that you’re forcing people to eat lasagna and brainwashing them into joining your plushie cult!”
“It’s not a cult,” John said defensively. “It’s a
community.”
What followed was pure chaos.
Hogan charged, flipping the table of lasagna into the sand. Brenda screamed in rage and launched herself at him, somehow managing to suplex the 300-pound wrestler into a beach cabana.
John grabbed Waddles the plush penguin and used it as a bludgeon, swinging it wildly at Hogan. Trump, still chewing, shouted, “This is the greatest fight I’ve ever seen!”
The resort staff arrived to break it up, but not before Brenda declared, “This isn’t over, Hogan! The lasagna will rise again!”
By the time the dust settled, Brenda and John had been escorted off the island. The HFBoards thread hit 200 pages, with users debating everything from the ethics of pineapple in lasagna to whether Waddles should be inducted into the Wrestling Hall of Fame.
As for me, I knew this wasn’t the end. Somewhere out there, Brenda and John were plotting their next move, probably while sewing bikinis for their entire plushie collection.
