The visitor



Don't mind me.
No please, I insist.
I know I look quite big*.
And close.
But just carry on.
As if I weren't here.
I'll ... uh ... be sitting quietly.
Minding my own business.
Yup, yup, yup.

Hey ... is that a sandwich you're eating?

    Step 1: Back. Away. From. The. Sandwich.
    Step 2: Watch giant bird devour said sandwich.
    Step 3: Take off running if he still looks hungry!

    Am trying to come up with suitably spooky lines from Poe's The Raven but I can't without cheating on Google so you will just have to imagine something suitably spooky.
