MANNY AND THE PICKLE FACTORY: A CAUTIONARY 100-WORD TALE

Manny had worked at the Pickle Factory since he was a teenager.

As the years passed, he developed a sick obsession. Day after day, a single thought pounded inside his head: He wanted to stick his dick into the pickle slicer.

Too bashful to discuss his obsession with his wife, he sought psychiatric help. But the drugs the headshrinker prescribed were powerful, filling Manny’s head with an unpleasant metallic buzzing. He stopped taking them.

Eventually, Manny yielded to his impulses.

His supervisor caught him in the act. Horrified, he fired Manny on the spot.

He fired the pickle slicer, too.
