2nd place in Derby #258: Beauty Within, with 544 votes!

The butterfly was so beautiful that everyone felt the need to paint it, regardless of their skill level. Also regardless of whether or not they were driving.

The sheriff's office estimated that the butterfly caused nearly 85 traffic accidents that summer.

"We're calling this thing public enemy number 1," said the Sheriff at a press conference. "And we will not rest until we have it in custody."

But the task proved more difficult than he expected, as he sifted through painting after painting of the criminal. They all appeared splotchy and abstract, and so he had no idea what the butterfly really looked like.

"I got a whole friggin' town full of painters all the sudden, and none of them can look at the darn thing straightforward-like," thought the sheriff.

Wear this shirt: to a butterfly exhibit.

Don't wear this shirt: to a butterfly-eating exhibit.

This shirt tells the world: "You can be free as a bird if you wanna be; I'm choosing to be free as a butterfly."

We call this color: grass. Also, if I don't say butterfly here, the pattern is broken.
