Say Whaaaat?! (76 Words)

“I’ve murdered thousands and only felt the slightest hint of remorse,” said the little old man. He fidgeted with a bowler hat in his lap.

“Well, audience?” asked the game-show host.

Bleep. Bloop. Blorp.

The host gestured towards a digital display. “The numbers are overwhelming, audience says... exterminator.”

The little old man’s lips twitched into a smile beneath his white, walrusy mustache. He chuckled and nodded. Lifted himself from the chair, and shuffled towards the exit.

“Next up on Name that Profession: I like big butts and I cannot lie.” The host winked at the cameras. “Stay tuned.”

    1. Hey Derek,

      Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! I’m so glad you liked this micro-fiction. I originally thought of the “likes big butts” profession as a plastic surgeon that specializes in gluteal augmentations. However, another reader (on Instagram) thought of a cigar-cutter, which is also a brilliant possibility. Thank you again for reading and commenting, I hope you have a great week!

      Take care,
