5 out of 5 Light Cycles

While I will rarely try to broaden the masses appreciation of the finer arts I cannot in good conscience allow this to pass by. I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir when I talk about Something Aweful.com. This weeks comedy goldmine is an excersize in humanity.

Imagine you are an actor. An actor that looks the part of the most reviled man is history. On you're days off you garden and play the piano. You like jazz music. You hate public transportation and you hope to god you never die on set wearing 'the uniform'.

The short story's range from 4 paragraphs in length to one sentence. Here's a couple of shorter ones.

"not every man can be hitler. only one. the rest of the single-file line will have to pretend to be charlie chaplin."

"if getting paid fifty bucks plus travel to jump out of a kid's bedroom closet and scare him into going to his bar mitzvah the next day is wrong, I can't afford to be right"

These are the funnier ones. Others touch on pariahism, fanaticism and a tribute to the origonal Hitler actor, Ralph Manza. The contrast of emotions really pulls this collection together. Enjoy!
