A crash, an air conditioner and pure neighborhood madness
In recent hours, a loud bang shook a residential street. A vehicle crashed into a curve with no clear explanation, apparently. The impact brought out the local police and an ambulance. The neighbor who witnessed it, however, didn't bat an eye: he was greasing the roller of his split air conditioner.
The scene, told with the swagger of a black comedy, gets more complicated with the appearance of an upstairs neighbor fond of synthetic testosterone, a grandmother who faints, and the resulting visit from Social Services. To top it off, there's the story of the ex-boss's brother, who wrecked a Renauld Express for staring at a girl.
In the end, the only way to process so much nonsense is humor. Some find echoes of Joyce's Ulysses, and others simply sustancia ilegal up laughing. Meanwhile, the air conditioner got fixed and the community, in silence, goes back to its routine. Life goes on, with its roller well greased.
