despair: a narrative
-- Wednesday, May 19, 2004 --
Ideas. There are none. KC is in darkness. He cannot come up with an update to write. Despair. KC continues to flounder. There is no one for him to turn to. And then, a knight in shining armor. Instant messaging gives KC an opportunity:
KC: branden, your turn to post on netslackers
Branden AUTO-REPLY: making shoes
More despair. KC sinks into a depression. There is no light at the end of the tunnel. But then . . .
KC: chris! write something for netslackers!
Chris AUTO-REPLY: If I liked you, you'd know I wasn't here, and you'd know where I was!
KC: you're in prison taking it from behind
KC: i think i just wrote our next update
There is much rejoicing. KC has avoided spending valuable minutes coming up with something new and original by recycling a conversation. KC goes on to become a Hollywood director.
THE END
