Yeah, when I write to a prompt I tend to go comic, not sure why. Glad you’re comfortably coming with me into slightly unfamiliar (for me) territory. Cheers!
I absolutely love it!!! 😁😅 It's hilarious; with the phrases "competitive radiography" and "one heck of a thorax” coming at me, how could I not laugh?! And Betty's war cry? "I can feel it in my bones!" Laugh out loud moment! And the fact that Joan died of lung cancer; duh, she's been missing half of it since the last pageant. 🤭
But also, there's a macabre element; "mailed body parts", is an image that made me shudder, and just as I'm about to go get the mail!!! The way you wrote it like a journalistic piece is also worth mentioning. It's like I was actually reading a piece on historical crime with a humorous twist! It's freaking awesome, man! 10/10 for sure (like I'm a judge in a beauty pageant, ahem, radiator girls beauty pageant)!!! 😉👏👏 Thank you, John!
🤣👍 My kind of humor! It was funny, dude, had to check, cause you don't really write this kind of thing.

P.S. I'll make sure to never be a "saw loser"!😂✌
Thanks Alex! I always appreciate your support.
You did write it as sort of a comedic piece, right?
Absolutely! Bone-dry humor, you might say…
Hahaha incredible. You certainly have my vote.
Thanks so much, really appreciate it.
Laugh out loud funny! Thanks for another excellent story John.
Had me giggling on the bus. You really got the voice down as well
Thanks Kayleigh! It looks like nearly everyone on Substack wrote a story for this. I enjoyed your piece too.
