A Transactional Exorcism

Warning: This letter is highly corrosive. Handle with gloves, or at least with a healthy sense of self awareness.

Potential Side Effects:

  • The phantom taste of expired bologna.
  • An uncontrollable urge to audit your own “nice” gestures for ulterior motives.
  • Sudden, acute clarity regarding the difference between a person and a vending machine

If you find yourself holding open a door today, do it because it’s a door and not because you’re expecting a prize. Otherwise, the Ghost Office might have a delivery for you, too.

Block the number. Save the stamps.

-Irina Finch. Unlicensed Mail Clerk of the Ghost Office.
