Gene the overconfident fork...

Once there was a fork.  This fork's name was Gene.  Gene was an overconfident little fork.  Gene had a Machavllian complex and therefore had no concept of his limitations.  Gene did not know that forks are generally only useful for picking up bits of food and the occasional accidental poking of an eye or two.  Additionally, Gene had delusions of taking over the world.  

Gene said to himself one day, "I am going to take over the world."  Gene schemed of how successful his world taking-over campaign would be.  "My campaign will be extremely successful!" he thought.  

Gene had never actually left the small plastic silverware drawer organizer, but this did not phase him, as he suffered from an overly exagerated sense of self.  

The day arrived and Gene set off to conquer the world.  It was then that Gene realized that he had no legs or any other form of self propulsion.  "Dang" thought Gene.

The end.
