Yesterday had been a glorious day for our family barbeque. Sizzled sausages, browned burgers, charcoaled chicken, and seared steak.
Today, I saw the first body where I had left it. The next one was near the window—also dead. In the kitchen were more corpses.
It was their fault. After the barbeque, they had followed me into the kitchen, trampling all over my food with their dirty feet.
So, before going to bed, I had reached into the cupboard for my weapon of mass destruction. Now the bodies were there for all to see.
Murdered with a quick squirt of fly-spray.
Nice story, easy to related to past experiences. Loved the twist at the end.
I thought this was going to be one of those macabre American tales about a mass shooting that we’re always hearing about in England. So it really had me fooled. Nicely done, made me chuckle.
Nice twist at the end. Love the “dirty feet” part. So clever!
The title cleverly leads us to wrong predictions. Perfect choice for April Fools Day.
I wondered how their feet got all over your food. Good twist.
This is a good one, B A . Loved it it!!!
very funny and different! I hope the corpses were flies, or ants!!
