“May the force
be with you.”
Isaac Newton* #quote
Went to my card game thing today. Picked up a starter deck for the
card game Force Of Will. Maybe I will try that will some people and
see if that is fun. Anyway onto the flash fiction!
The Couch Potato Farmer
The couch potato is the most curious new development of genetic
engineering. Now considered the largest food crop it gets it name not
only from the fact it is the size of a couch but also from the fact
its growth is accelerated mostly by particular light frequencies.
These light frequencies actually match those emitted from televisions
and should be varied as the day goes on.
This task is actually managed by me, a simple man by the name of
Andrew, who has now turned watching television into his job. That and
watching the readings along with it. I must flip channels based on
readings corresponding to the couch potato's growth, looking at
hundreds of TVs, hundreds of readings, and hundreds of couch
potatoes. I flip channels appropriately. At some points a couch
potato may grow best next to a TV show with football on, but in a
moment my computer may tell me to change the channel to the weather.
It is worth it however for the massive boon the crop gives.
Next season I heard I may need to increase my understanding of
literature so I can start managing the bookworms scientists developed
on the farm. The wonders of genetic engineering!
