(Please do NOT take this Personally, and as for the genre, my best guess is that this is a short cautionary “one part play”..(?)),
The one and only, Part 1:
Ron: It’s a joke!!
Bob: Well it doesn’t sound too funny to me!!
Ted: Yo!!
Ron: All I know is that I don’t trust 99.999 percent of—
Bob: Out of what!!?
Ted: Man why the—
Ted shakes his head while quietly and aggressively talking to himself as Ron and Bob continue arguing..
Ted: You know what..!?
Ron and Bob ignore Ted as their arguing continues..
Ron: The evilest of actions to do is to remain silent and do nothing when evil is taking place!!
Bob: Well what if someone who is silent is struggling to take care of himself after not having enough time to learn how to help himself in order to become fairly equipped for helping others!?
Ron: Wait what?
Bob: Oh fuck off!!
Ted: Guys!! I’m trying to help here!!
Ron and Bob ignore Ted as they continue arguing..
Ted: You know what!!? I’m done!!
Ted quits another job, while Ron and Bob completely ignore him, as he walks off through security, and out into the remote commercial district jobless night..
He then passes someone talking to himself, by himself, out loud..
Person by himself talking out loud: If you say something is supposed to be funny before performing it out loud, the audience will remain lost and confused!!
Ted: What in the..!?
Ted shakes his head and continues walking..
Another person by himself: Bahahahaha!!!
Ted runs!!
Another random person by herself: Where is he running to? What..?
Ted crosses the quiet street and then runs into the woods..
Ted: What in the name of fucking shit ass fucks is going on here!!?
While stumbling through the woods towards neon lights of the nearest service station, Ted encounters a man covered in tattoos..
Man in tattoos: You had a lot of free time huh..?
Ted: And how do I know you!?
The man ignores Ted..
Man in tattoos: Well, during my breaks while delivering all the packages that your lack of anger management mishandled, I just couldn’t help stop myself from reading your WordPress blog..
Ted: And!?
Man in tattoos: You know, I’d pull into the service station, drink some of what my harm reduction specialist suggested..?
Ted: So what you’re telling me is that, while being forced to deliver packages, you’re driving under the influence, since that is the only time you have to continue with your alcohol harm reduction practice..?
Man in tattoos: Well I mean you—
Ted: No.. I really don’t “know”..
The man in tattoos then shoots Ted, eats him, then buries him, because he’s been overworked and pressured by others to the point of forgetting how to sufficiently handle his own basic needs.. Yes, as the narrator, I also do NOT wish this form of scenario onto anyone. Thanks for reading this, and keep on joining in the peaceful spirit of welcoming mutual self-improvement! I really hope life on Earth peacefully evolves in whichever ways required to reduce the type of pain that does nothing other than resulting in more pain. Keep on continuing on!! Thanks again for reading this!!
