As an automotive service advisor in real life, the neglected Hyundai in desperate need of a tire rotation fucking slayed me.

Great story, my dude!

Hyundai neglect is the true mark of a serial killer ha. Thanks so much for reading. Great to hear you enjoyed it.

Edgar is 100% Appalachian, this I know for certain. 😂 Even with the Blue Bedsheet's murderous intentions, he still saw the good in him. That cheese and cork line had me in stitches!!

Well you are the expert on Appalachia, so can’t argue with that! Thanks so much for reading. I’m glad you liked cheese and cork. It’s such an odd line, but felt old timey in the best way.

"I rarely rotate the tires." Hahaha. I like old Edgar. He's a pretty nice fellow and he knows how to survive, even with that bad hearing. Hehe. Great one, Ricky.

Thank you, Parker. Blue Banshee’s got a long way to go if he thinks the mark of a good axe murderer is abandoning routine tire maintenance. Appreciate you reading!

This was such a funny story. What a great start to the summer!

Felt like a good time to introduce an aspiring slasher. Nearby campers beware.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

Let's hope Band Cheese doesn't leave any incriminating evidence in his terrormobile.

Super fun story!

The expectations for Blue Bedsheet are pretty low after this start. But he’s just warming up.

Really appreciate you reading and commenting!

Ha! So funny Ricky! I think you need a sequel to this one. How will the Blue Banshee live down that Hyundai with the girls? Well done!

Ricky Champagne's avatar

Oh yes. Blue Banshee will be making a return. First days on the job are always tough. It's only up from here. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Oh, my god. I laughed so hard I cried, couldn’t breathe. My husband was just looking at me like, “wtf, dude?” Please make Blue Bedsheet/Band Cheese and Edgar, (not Roger) like best buds or something. A novel. Please. 😂

This is the kind of review someone attempting to write comedy could only dream of. Thank you so much. Based on this, Edgar might have just accidentally become a recurring character.

Rebekah Mallory's avatar

Attempting to write comedy? Attempting? Oh, no, sir. You do it with ease. And yay!

The Blue Bedsheet is my new favorite apps kicker...er ax killer. Great work, Ricky!

Ricky Champagne's avatar

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Haha. Apps kicker.

Rough start for the Banshee but he’ll get it figured out. Just needs a little momentum.

Pretty strange to call himself the Blue Band cheese and then to not wear any blue!

I’m glad that Edgar pointed it out!

Hopefully he’s as bad at murdering people as he is at living up to his name! ⚖️
