RIP Vroom - YOE2018

"Here lies Vroom."

"No."

"Er, sorry?"

"No, he doesn't."

"Here lies Vroom."

"No, he doesn't lie."

(Meaningful pause)

"Here truths Vroom. Better?"

"Yes. Well, actually no. That doesn't really work, does it?'

"Here is Vroom."

"Right...not. Well, he isn't really here, is he?"

"Here isn't Vroom."

"Perfect."

"Vroom was a kind and caring man who..."

"He broke my pencil box."

"He what?"

"He broke my pencil box in the second grade – not exactly kind and caring."

"Vroom was a kind and caring man who, despite a temporary bout of insanity in the second grade, went on to do great things for humanity. Vroo..."

"They weren't great. I mean sure, they were okay..."

"...oom cared greatly for animals and left a sizable portion of his estate to Timex and Rolex, his beloved watchdogs."

"They didn't like him."

"His beloved watchdogs..."

"They used to pee in his slippers."

"Now look, what is it that you have against Vroom anyway?"

"Nothing really. Just that he used to visit ATS a lot and my life will be meaningless if I can't nitpick every single thing even remotely associated with him to death and beyond."

"Ah, so you are a liberal then."

"Don't label me !!!"

"RIP Vroom. Well done, Sir. Well done."

Scrolling down ATS new entries I flicked past RIP Vroom.

Mind went "What!!!" Then I saw the short story entry. Damn clickbait it was but a funny read non the less.

Well done. Got me.

Kind regards,
