I never been fond of guacamole unless it's really smooth. I'm more of a salsa guy myself.

My grandpa had a GIANT hoss avo tree in his back yard. The biggest and most delicious avocados I've ever had. They were like small grapefruits and had that dense hoss taste.
His second wife made him chop it down.

Trees fascinate me. I remember in one of the parks close to where I lived there were all these trees; who's bark was so soft you could draw upon it.

Trees can be creepy at night. I would ride to and from school regularly and would have to ride through wooden areas on my bike; at night, you'd hear the branches croaking and swaying back and forth in the wind and sometimes from the corner of your eye, you could see people moving in and out of the bushes.

Whenever I hear the trees rustling in the wind, I'm reminded of H.P. Lovecraft's The Colour out of Space, and the trees that moved w/no wind. Creepy, yeah.

His second wife made him chop it down. Either you mean Hass, or the avocados tasted like horses. If the latter possibility applies, I side completely with his second wife.

As a very small child, I saw the now-famous Jack Kirby cover featuring Groot and for the next few weeks had nightmare after nightmare about the tree outside my bedroom window coming to life and reaching for me. Guess that's why I thought the scariest scene in the original Poltergeist was... oh, you know.
Cei-U! I summon the chainsaw!
PS: Tolkein got me over my fear of mobile trees years ago so, no, I won't freak out when I go see GotG. Or if I do, it won't be Groot's fault.

Riding to and from school at night would prove scary sometimes. Like when there was wind; you would hear the trees swaying back and forth, and sometimes the branches would crash down as the wind howled about me. There was just myself, and my little bike, and though I had a powerful bike light, it only gave light for a few meters in front of me. I sometimes got the most creepy feeling, there were things in the forest watching me. It made me jump up on the peddles and ride ever faster, holding my breath to reassure myself that everything would be okay. That if the worst happened, I could maybe use my bike as leverage to fend off an attacker.
