UnJournal 2009 12 11: Silly is...

[PROMPT]
Silly is a middle-aged man who combs his remaining limp strands of hair into an elaborate swirl over his bald spot, gluing them in place with hair spray and hoping no one will notice.

Silly is a golden retriever who slinks sheepishly off the sofa whenever his owner comes home, hoping -- despite the piles of hair all over the cusion -- that she won't notice he's been sleeping there.

What is silly? Give three more examples.
[/PROMPT]

Silly is a well stuffed couch, groaning under the weight of his owner’s children as they bounce across his surface, hoping they will leave him alone if only he stays extra, extra still.

Silly is a woman, tracing her steps along the rushing traffic filled streets as she searches for a contact lens now trampled under the relentless crowds and prays for the clock to grant her five extra minutes before her corporate meeting.

Silly be those that quest for glories and treasures sought not by men but deamons.
