I was asleep, and this story woke me up.

Still comatose though, sadly.

This is… kind of captivating? Not sure if it’s the low bar or it’s good. That said I once wrote what I tried to make “my worst story ever” and my friends all found it fun and endearing (it was about a guy who befriends a bitter resentful frog who keeps asking for drug money)

“American football (Alabama tennis).” Hahaha gold.

I did wonder what you was doing with this piece, like was you going to call out someone else’s story. Very well played :)

A sequel is warranted, what is John doing these days ?

It's far from the worst fiction on Substack.
