Swamp-dweller Blues

Every morning, Shrek wakes up and trudges over to his office. It ain't easy being the CEO of an ogreempire. He's got mountains of paperwork to chew through, meetings with annoying officials, and the constant threat of pests.

To top it all off, he's gotta battle the monotony. Sometimes he dreams of just staying in his swamp with a good bowl of mush, but duty calls. He grumbles and throws on his business suit. Another day, another sack of ogre rupees.

Marshland Melodies > The Grind

Listen here, partner. This ain't your daddy's office job . Out here in the bayous , life moves at a slower rhythm . You get your hands dirty, sure, check here but you also get to hear the birds sing. No deadlines out here. Just the chirping crickets and the soft sunlight. It's a good life , ya know? One you can't find in no corporate ladder climb.

This sucks. Working for him/that little tyrant/the Short King is awful/terrible/a living nightmare.

He's a real savage, but in the best way possible. This dude lives and breathes the ogre life. When he's not laying waste to villages, you can catch him scrolling through Reddit. This OGRE has mastered the art of being a troll.

  • His memes are legendary
  • That sweet, sweet internet validation fuels him
  • Don't anger the meme lord

Gatorfest Guaranteed

Well folks, you better grab your boots and mosquito repellent 'cause this weekend is gonna be a real mess. We're lookin' at swampy rain all day in and day out with heat indexes in the low 90s. If you're thinkin' about headin' outdoors, best pack some extra repellent and a poncho. It might even be good for gettin' that gator watchin' in.
