Adam: A crayon breaking friend who does not like the color yellow

There once was a friend of mine named Adam.  Adam was a business star and loved to sell things to other people.  Adam was busy and if you did not have a business like Adam, he would stare at you through his window in his car.  He just did not like it that someone else may not have to go to work and do the same things that kept him afloat in life.  So Adam was not a fan of crayons. He often went into the grade schools and would break all of the children's crayons.  That was ok as far as the school principal cared, Adam was paying for all of the crayons anyhow so if Adam wanted to break them, the principal would look the other way.  The principal was a silly man who liked to dance in cream puff cakes and he never spoke to people who really liked crayons.  That is the story.  Adam once met a man who liked crayons and this man told Adam that the color yellow was a good color.  Adam did not really like the color yellow.  It reminded him of his sisters bathroom at his rich parent's house.  So Adam told this man that yellow was bad and that this man who liked crayons was really just a scoffer who did not like to sell things like cars or computers or the like.  So Adam walked away and went back to his sales job selling supplies to the communist nation of Cuba.   Adam really felt big because he bought all of the crayons at the school.  It was a blessing.  So if you meet Adam in public, don't tell him that you like Orange Crayons either.  That's the color of his prison uniform he once wore.  Thanks.
