[498] A Thousand Likes Drove Me Over the Edge

Flash fiction / satire

Another shorty.

An infuriated driver, frustrated by society's catch-phrase chatter, plunges off a cliff after a frustrating radio interview, only to find the afterlife condemned to the same empty jargon

Sure to rub some folks up the wrong way but what better place to do that than the lion pit they call DR?

Questions:

Does it flow well? As a work of satire, does it need to develop more along the lines of traditional story-telling? Is it too barbed or not caustic enough?

Humour is probably more subjective than tragedy so I'm unsure if American readers will find much to chuckle at but let's see.
