a scorpion and a frog are standing by a small creek.
the scorpion needs to get to the other side but can't do it alone.
he asks the frog if he can help him get to the other side.
the frog says "no. i can't trust you. you're a scorpion."
the scorpion says "don't worry." and hops on the frog's back.
halfway across the creek, the scorpion stings the frog.
the frog looks at him and says, "why did you do that? now we're both going to die."
the scorpion says, "i can't help it. i'm just a scorpion."
lesson of the story:
i'm not carrying you anymore.
