Kafka on Kubicles
:On tonight's episode of the unpopular Holmes on Homes spin-off, Franz Kafka, as always, visits another author's story and in painfully obtuse detail analyses the faults that lay within. If time permits he helps to criticize and ridicule other critics' pathetic, hamfisted and pedestrian attempts to interpret his own rambling and befuddling critique.
::"Well, as you can see, the problem with this story is all about its metaphorical foundation. The original contractor used too much character in the concrete, which makes it brittle. See how it just falls apart in my hands. It breaks my heart to see a story with such poor construction. What we need to do is gut this whole area and substitute these characters with an unlikeable protagonist who may, or may not, be going through a combination of life, vis-à-vis, <airquotes>reality</airquotes> and a bunch of plot twists that are all in his head. Or not. Over there, perhaps, he'll turn into a bug, and that corner over there will be all in his imagination."

Coffee Break
:Off air. Unless you consider fifteen minutes of static "on air".
1515-1615
