EVENT #1

[ a serious, clinical-sounding woman's voice will be broadcasting on all radio frequencies sometime in the middle of the afternoon. it starts with a businesslike clearing of her throat. just to make sure she has your attention. ]

Greetings, settlers. I hope you've found yourself comfortable. We have had the... honor of your presence for quite some time now, and the time has come for you to earn your place. In your respective towns, we've placed bulletin boards listing some tasks you may elect to do in exchange for pay and other necessary supplies. While these aren't mandatory... [ there's a slight sneer to her voice here. ] ...we do advise you to select at least one that you are qualified for.

Employer's names and locations can be found on their respective flyers. Please direct all inqueries to them.

[ there's a momentary pause, but the transmission doesn't quite end yet. ]

Please keep in mind that supplies are limited and will come on a first come, first earned basis. Simply put, if you want to survive this environment, there is no leeway for slacking off.

Good luck.

[ oh jesus. ]

I wasn't talking about that. That's on a scale somewhere that even I won't deign to touch if I want to make it through the rest of my day—the rest of my life—unscathed.

For the record, though, Steve from Blues Clues is apparently splitting his time between coke-snorting band junkie and male prostitute. So, y'know. The elements were always there.

No, see, what we need is Johnny Knoxville waking up with a lit firecracker up his ass, which is about to torch up the fuse on this huge fucking cannon that's got Wee-Man inside it. Soon as that thing gets lit he's got approximately fifteen seconds to crawl out of there before it goes off and he turns into a literal human cannonball.

So then, okay, on the other side of the room, Steve-O's chained to a chair where he's being forced to watch all his spin-off shenanigan shows and every time he so much as cracks a smile he gets electrocuted. All he has to do to get free is admit that he's a complete fucking horse's ass and they can all walk out of there safe. But you know he won't, so Wee-Man hits him with the force of a Mack truck and they both go flying into a pit of snakes that have been trained specifically to bite people in the balls until they die.

Twist ending is the rest of the crew is already down there, dead from Ballchompitis. No one survives. The credits roll. The lights come on. The audience leaves, knowing the world is a changed place forever more.
smackdown: (Heaven said I had too much fun.)
