With all due respect, Florica said that you are a harridan. Yo, what are you looking at, I would 'it in your eyes. Please, we are neighbours, welcome into your hell. But do allow me to organize a dance party over your grave. I am honoured to admit that once I had met you, I redefined my standards for extreme dysmorphia associated with severe developmental delay. You're funny, Mister, I would like to have a laugh together somewhere at Săpânța, me reading, you receiving flowers. Hey, you, dummy, call me later.

Real Fiction is a collective project started in 2013 by Florin Piersic Jr. The concept of Real Fiction continued to exist as a Facebook group, after a volume of stories was published at Humanitas Publishing House. (In July 2022, the group has 8,750 members.) The authors write ultra-short stories, with the texts limited to 500 characters (in Romanian, so the length of the English translation might be a little different) - a flash-fiction exercise on a topic that changes every few days. The group's coordinators are Florin Piersic Jr., Gabriel Molnar, Răzvan Penescu, and Luchian Abel. (Drawing by Adrian T. Roman)
