Double Flee A

hatred

There's something I can't stand, something that gets stuck in my head and tears it up like a burr that got in a shoe. A burr made of pointy steel against a pink foot, just scrubbed up and rubbed, in a shoe that fits really close. I think I actually hate this thing. It is the kiwi kid on the Mazda commercial whispering "zoom zoom". When I think about it, I want to tear my ears out.

A guy I go to class with, Alvin, does an incredible impression of this kid, and he did it yesterday. Like other kinds of injuries, it still hurts a day later. I wish I could disguise my contempt for this auditory injustice. But the secret's out and I can expect more zoom zooms in the future. Crap.
