Haze Descends On Freaktopia



Freaktopia, Freaktopia – Recently, there is a thick suffocating blanket of asthma-inducing haze enveloping the realm of Freaktopia. The innocent smog does absolutely nothing except for causing traffic accidents to pop up like a fungus infection, cause the Freaktopian inhabitants (humans and non-humans, alive and dead alike) to drop dead like flies being sprayed with a healthy dose of Baygone and flood the newspapers with thoroughly useless reports on the current obstinate atmospheric condition that is determined to stay for the next few millennia and add itself to the ever-increasing problems and woes of Freaktopia.

As the haze continues to exist, the Health and Death Ministry is experiencing a huge spike in its citizens dropping like flies, spontaneously combusting and being flung 5km after being hit by speeding vehicles and splattering all over the roads. ”The haze is simply terrible, you know?!” demanded an irate Mutabakian whom was smoking literally at the ears. “I cannot even see who I am talking to and whenever I hear voices, I thought I going insane because I am talking to an invisible person,” said the Mutabakian to herself before spontaneously combusting to a delightful crisp. The High Commissioner of the Mutabakian Police Force had declared that the entire force will be on break until the haze moves to another dimension, until then, citizens are encouraged to take legal matters into their hands. Also, the executioner will be away on annual leave. Much as the haze is posing plenty of physical and mental health issues to law-abiding Freaktopians, the thick and impenetrable smog is good news to those who are planning break-ins, smugglings, heists and murder or simply getting away scot-free after mowing down a crowd of kindergarten brats playing in the middle of the highway. 

Nobody know how the haze came about as it literally appeared out of Nowhere (a new dimension that is currently being explored by physicists at the Royal Urban University of Mutabak (RUUM), Unknown University (UU) and Allopia Spy School (ASS)) and settled over the infinitely vast multiverse of Freaktopia, as though it is a sentient being and had arrived at the conclusion that this is the perfect place for a permanent residence. This is the official answer issued unanimously by the three most prestigious educational institutions in Freaktopia. However, the inhabitants are unsatisfied by such “boring and brainlessly politically correct statements” and that they are beginning to dig into matter (armed with teaspoons, spatulas and beach spades). “I am certain the haze is caused by the ongoing war between Fiji and Veggiepura with the former burning swathes   of farmlands, vegetable crops, plantations and citizens, while the latter is retaliating with firing of chili bombs, catapulting of gigantic pumpkins, hurling of exploding watermelons and arcane summoning of killer beanstalks,” said a Mutabakian sagely. Yet again, not all Freaktopians share the same sentiments. One believed that the haze might be due to the Urban Geek’s summoning ritual going awry and her flaming Ifrit is happily hurling hellfire everywhere and anywhere. 

In her defence, the Urban Geek, aka Royal High Summoner, stated she had not been conducting any summoning rituals and the hot weather is certainly not conducive for summoning a Fire-type Aeon since the summoner is likely to faint and die from heatstroke before the Aeon could be successfully summoned. When fingers are pointed in the direction of the Duck Medium, whom is well-known for conducting numerous forbidden rituals, the medium was discovered to be silently slitting open several teddy bears and muttering prayers in the dark. Meanwhile, the Princess of Mutabak is unavailable for comments and is believed to be on an incognito tour of the scenic environs of Mount Pra.

Duck Medium's Wisdom Part II



Here are more of Duck Medium's wisdom accumulated over the 2 decades it had spent in the alternate dimension of Seran Goon Senior College. They are not merely pretty words but also survival tips on how to stayin'alive(a song by Bee Gees that almost drive the Duck Medium to a deeper state of insanity) in the peaceful world of Freaktopia. Some of these are actually e-mails from fiends of mine from that concrete hell called a school.
  • I no longer can drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.
  • I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.
  • I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the rat faeces and urine.
  • I no longer date the opposite sex because they will take my kidneys and leave me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.
  • I no longer shop in a mall since trying out clothes risk a hidden camera or double-sided mirror.
  • I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.
  • I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.
  • I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day.
  • I no longer use margarine because it's one molecule away from being plastic.
  • I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.
  • I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.
  • I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a stupid number for which I will get the phone bill from hell with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.
  • I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED

Don't bother cleaning the tank as the inhabitants are clean eaters and the acid will do the cleaning, just remember to feed it a owner per day to keep it happy.

It may sometime fill itself with useful rumours, gossips, paparazzi news or the darkest secrets of others. Please use the information for your own selfish monetary benefit via blackmailing!
