How to not spend your summer vacation: a short story/rant by mark tuan

sweeter than a pastry

with your brother Joey.

i mean, mark isn't saying he hates his younger brother. his slightly more popular, outgoing, friendly, spontaneous, fun-loving younger brother.

but he is just pissed his parents basically don't let him just sit at home all day watching one tree hill and full metal alchemist on his laptop while eating Cheerios in various styafoam cups.

"well................ i kind of.................. got............ fired?"

"ok i don't know if my ears deceived me or maybe they could of be wax in my ear or.."

"probably the waxy ears. i mean you do a ty job taking care of yourself."
