Fake resolutions for 2024
If anyone asks what my resolutions are for 2024, I might reply with one of these. My hope is that these are all some kind of uncomfortable or confusing for the person who asked.
- Complete my probation
- Do 10 sit-ups without a rest
- Father a child. Since it takes 9 months, if things aren't looking good on the dating front by the end of January I'll just "donate" to a clinic.
- Finish a crossword puzzle
- Finish my novelization of the Cinnamon Bear radio show from the 1930s
- Grow two inches taller. There are supplements. I get emails about them every day.
- Learn how to play Tetris
- Make the front page of the local newspaper
- Move out of my group home
- Put another 10,000 dollars in my cryogenics savings account
- Start making money as an Instagram influencer
- Transition 25% of my life into virtual reality. By the end of the year, have a full-time job at the K-Mart recreation in VR Chat.
- Apply lotion at least once a month
- Create the next Twitter
- Submit a post to the Reddit Writes Seinfeld sub and get five upvotes on it. (You can tell this resolution is fake because fuck Reddit for banning third party clients.)
- Write the Next Great American Microfiction post (on the Fediverse) / write a microfiction every day.
