Linus the Minus loved to subtract, take away, find a difference, decrease, break apart, divide, make things smaller, eat, stomp, squash, destroy, and grab. He liked any time that someone ended up with less.
His friends didn't mind when he removed things from them. They knew it was just his nature, and they didn't want him to change. Besides, sometimes they liked it when he took things away.


Thank you for taking away that bomb!
