Style
~(It's my goal to take Chuck Palahniuk's place as the greatest contemporary
author of our time...by doing so, I also take the rights to his style of
writing, which I love. ^^;; I was bored...so I just typed this up...my friend
Cara said it does sound like Chuck's style...but with my own 'signiature
Jilliness' to it. So...here...ya go.)~
So what's happened is you've forgotten your paper at home. In
that desperate, frantic search of the back seat with your arm stretched out
backwards, twisted and upturned, the steering wheel slides just a fraction of an
inch to the right. This eighth of an inch difference puts you in a ditch, still
scrambling with your hand in the backseat, like the pathetic corporate sack of
sad that you are. Your old-lady blue Chrysler is relieving itself of gas and
fluids as you scream at the fuzzy dice dangling from your grease-smudged review
mirror. You can't find that fucking paper, and now you'll have to walk back for
it.
This is where your life begins and ends, ever turning on an axle of
repetition and boredom. You've been trained to be this worthless pile of
nothing, this little glob of whatever on the bottom of some much more important
person's shoe. All that college and work and crap has brought you to this
reality of humdrumness. All the preparation for life was more exciting than the
real thing.
You open the car door, taking the first step on just another
long, pointless road in your life.
That fucking paper…that
ever-important trash…it's just some company bullshit about safety.
It's
actually missing due to the wiping of your ass with it the previous night after
you ran out of toilet paper. But you must not have noticed.
Your first
step is over a growing puddle of anti-freeze. Its blue looks like the punch they
serve at the business New Year's party. Like that Windex you almost downed after
that horrible party.
Your brown tweed trousers drag the ground as you
turn ninety degrees. Away from the car. Away from the company. Away from home.
There's only one direction you've never actually been in.
And
you take that first step towards it.

It does sorta sound like chuck.... but just not quite. I like it. But,
antifreeze is green.

Thanks VinVin and PV.

Well, we used to use a green cleaner at the movie theater. We called it 'the
green stuff.' That would probably sound dumb, though. Sorry. Does that mean the
party's gonna have green punch now? That sounds just as bad as blue punch.
