Berserko the Clown

by

Outside Berserko the Clown's house.
2:34 PM 23 Apr 2020

Cops repeatedly knock on the door.

"Mr. Berserko? Can you hear me? We had a report that you insinuated on social media you were going to take your life. Are you okay?"

Silence.

"Break the door down, Harrison," the cop said.

The door splintered and broke away. They rushed in to find Berserko on his couch, a bottle of pills on the coffee table. The paramedics rushed in.

Berserko jerked awake, "What the hell is going on? Can't a man take a couple of Tylenol PM's and sleep in peace??!!"

    Thanks, Drew. I think Berserko will outlive us all. After the nuclear holocaust the only things left alive will be cockroaches and Berserko.

    Am I glad he's still with us? Yeah! I'm sure his neighbours are thrilled, too.
