Yesterday, I got home at 6 p.m. and knocked on Rice-Boy’s bedroom door. I could hear him sigh as he lifted himself out of his computer chair.
He said, “What
do you want?”
“Can I come
in?”
“Sure.”
So I
gingerly stepped into his domain. I felt a little nervous entering Larry’s
territory. He likes to be left alone when he’s playing his video games.
I said, “I
lost my damn bus card. There was twenty bucks on it.”
He shrugged.
“That’s not a lot of money.”
“Not a lot
of money? Are you fucking crazy? It is to me.”
“Do you have
a bottom line? Is there some errand you would like me to run for you?”
I nodded. “I
need you to walk to the GS Mart and purchase me another.”
“Another
what?”
“Card, you
moron.”
“How much money
should I put on it?”
“I dunno. Thirty
bucks?”
“OK. Thirty bucks
it is.”
A bus ride
in Korea costs approximately a dollar. Many of us public-transportation zombies
have T-money cards. They look like a typical credit card. Anyway, you
give the guy at the store your cash, and he digitally transfers it onto the
card. Thirty dollars should be enough to last me for fifteen days.
Larry said, “Suppose
you find your other card?”
I shrugged. “Then
I’ll have two.”
My kid is a
good boy. He did as I asked with minimal complaints. The only sass I got was a
snotty eye roll. Big deal, right?
I sat on the
sofa and enjoyed a couple episodes of Wentworth. I’m on the part where
the top-dog Bea is getting fan mail from a loony feminist. I’m a huge fan of Wentworth.
In fact, anyone who refuses to watch the show is a worthless fag in my book. This
Australian prison drama comes with my highest recommendation.
At 9 p.m., I
walked to my room and relaxed in bed. Then I had a quick wank before finally
going to sleep. I now pretty much live my life as a twisted old eunuch. In
fact, I’ll probably never have sex again for the remainder of my existence. And let me tell you motherfuckers
something. I really miss porn. I haven’t seen a fuck-film in ages, and the absence of filth from my life is killing me. But what’s a boy to do? I’m going
to be dead soon, and the last thing I need is another sin hanging over my head.
The alarm
sounded at 5 a.m., and I dragged my sorry ass out of bed. Then I read the
headlines on my smartphone while taking a giant shit. The Korean supreme court
has ruled five to four that engaging in sodomy during a stint in the military
is against the law. Why? According to the judges, anal sex is bad for morale. Oh well. I
guess this ruling is terrible news for all you Asian butt-fuckers who might be reading this
piece of crap. However, you certainly have my condolences.
I ate three
jelly donuts for breakfast before going to work. I finally got to the school at
7:30 a.m. and called my mother using Facebook Messenger.
She said, “Are
you OK? You look very agitated.”
“I lost my
fucking bus card the other day. And I had twenty dollars on that bitch.”
“Well, it’s
not the end of the world.”
“True. But I
hate it when cash disappears because of stupid reasons.”
“Why don’t
you take a moment and check all your drawers?”
So that’s what I did. And wouldn’t you know it? I found the damn thing resting under an empty manila envelope. Mom saved my day once again.

I prefer the Nordic crime dramas. Watching filthy criminals in steel cages is soul-destroying. I much prefer blonde prostitute corpses found in suitcases, dumpsters or shallow graves and all that follows.
ReplyDeleteNordic crime dramas. I'll make a mental note.
