In a world where street fruit vendors struggle to survive, and only the craftiest glass-pane-carrying guys escape destruction (of their glass), one man rose up to end the chaos....
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm confused. When do the Swiss peeps come into all this?
Not until the final few seconds of the movie. Everyone (who lives) is happy that they've killed the last of the mutant fruit flies - then we cut to a shot of giant fruit flies eating a giant Peep.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The spunky kid has to suffer from a rare disease which requires a special operation, so the fruit stand HAS to make money before it is...too late. Luckily the estranged wife of the handsome plate glass carrier is a surgeon who specializes in this disease.

She doesn't have her surgical kit with her, and the hospital is overrun by the fruitflies, so she uses broken shards of plate glass for the procedure... and one of those fruit dehydrator things they advertise on TV to sterilize the glass.

I think someone needs to be moving a piano in the middle of this movie. Also, a car should crash and catch on fire.

Hoisting it up the sixth floor through the window, and it's halfway up before the plucky kid notices a huge fray in the cable.

This might have to be a miniseries.

If there are to be as many crashes as were present in the originally presented concept, I think the car whose crash caused the whole incident needs to have its brakes cut.

Speaking of cars (notice the subtle segue there?), my BF is writing for a car blog and if you want to read his stuff, please go to [link] If you are inspired to leave a comment, that would be fabulous and give the site some support, too!
His name is Jason, by the way. And he is the WBB.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Speaking of blogs...okay, not that useful a segue. Whatever.
Anyone have any interesting podcasts or places to look at listening of podcasts? I really don't know what's out there, but am putatively interested in technology and science stuff.
In theory.
