Pants
By Grant Baciocco
“Four thousand dollars?” Samantha asked raising an eyebrow.
“Yes.” Roger replied. “Four thousand dollars.”
“How is that even possible?”
“It’s all about the microfibers.”
“Microfibers?”
“Yes.” Roger replied, holding them up. “These tiny microfibers are state of the art. They promote sweating and, in turn, weight loss.”
“Couldn’t you just put on an extra pair of sweat pants?”
“That’s the point!” said Roger, slamming his fist down on the table. “Because of these microfibers, you don’t have to!”
“But $4000?!” Samantha yelled.
“It’s all about the microfibers!” Roger screamed. “Didn’t you hear me say they are state of the art!”

“You’d better count.” Glenn replied. His words just as slurred.
Edgar silently went around the circle, counting. “There’s…there’s nine.”
“You didn’t count you.” Glenn replied, laughing.
“Okay, okay, let’s all count together.” Edgar ordered.
Slowly, and carefully, all ten of them began counting at the top of their lungs.

Socks
By Grant Baciocco
“I have no choice, I’m going to have to ditch these socks.” James said to himself as he pedaled down the street. “Why didn’t I do laundry last night?”
He thought about the late night he’d spent playing video games rather than doing his laundry. Now he was biking to work and was gagging because his socks smelled so bad.

Outrage!
By Grant Baciocco
“Well that is just absolutely insane.” Fumed Robert. “What were you doing when they pulled you over?”
“I wasn’t doing anything. The speed limit was 35, I was doing 30!” Roberta answered. “I know for a fact that I was going that fast because I looked at the speedometer when he flipped on the lights!”
Robert shook his head. “Well, I just don’t understand it. A $250 ticket for nothing!” Robert paced, wringing his hands together. The wooden floor echoing each step. “I know what I’ll do! I’m going to meet with that officer! Get to the bottom of this!”
