How [livejournal.com profile] packbat Got Mayonnaise on a GBA
A Play In One Scene

The dining room is empty, except for the table, the piano, the piles of stuff in front of the piano, the piles of stuff on the far end of the table from the piano, the stack of boxes and resealable sandwich bags with boxes in them, the chairs...

Let me start over.

The dining room is unoccupied. A white Game Boy Advance sits on the table, next to a placemat decorated with flowers.


[livejournal.com profile] packbat enters from stage right, carrying a sandwich, and begins to eat. He lifts the sandwich (which has been cut in half) to his mouth with the right hand, and turns on the GBA with the left.

Setting down the sandwich, [livejournal.com profile] packbat notices something on his GBA. He reaches to the paper towels, grabs one, and wipes it off. A bit of mayonnaise on his finger gets on the top center edge of the machine during this process.

Turning back to the GBA, he notices the mayo.

[livejournal.com profile] packbat: {something unintelligible}

[livejournal.com profile] packbat gets more paper towels, and wipes at the GBA some more, removing most of the mayonnaise but smearing a thin layer over the screen. He wipes at this layer for a while more before giving up and turning off the machine.

[livejournal.com profile] packbat sets aside the now almost-clean GBA, and resumes eating his sandwich. The audience groans at the utter boringness of the story.

A large hook reaches out and pulls [livejournal.com profile] packbat off-stage, to be replaced with something more interesting. Like a potted plant.

Seriously, that's the whole story.

Note: Not all details of the above story are accurate.
