Situations in Which the Hunter Might Become the Hunted

From McSweeney's—2007


Hunter sprains ankle.

Hunter’s son mistakes hunter for moose.

Hockey mask obscures hunter’s peripheral vision.

Through a bureaucratic mix-up.

By osmosis.

Through a government initiated job-share program.

Hunter develops non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

Hunted learns hunter has ticklish paws.

Karen Hunter marries Jonathan Hunted.

Hunter finds hunted attractive. [Their forbidden love spawns a child with the speed of a gazelle and the jaws of lion. It is called a Gazellion.]

Hunted drags self to deserted mountain cabin where he finds a first aid kit, exercise equipment, a weapons cache, and Tony Robin’s Personal Power.

Difficult jungle terrain, cheap laser crossbow jams, crappy personal cloaking device malfunctions, just a crappy day.

Hunteds get hold of an imperial walker.

Hunted is Steven Segal, hunter is some pies.
