Butter
Erin Jade Lange
Fiction L2602b
Every plan, good or bad, starts with the spark of an idea. It takes less
than fifteen minutes to set up a website: get a free domain name, find a
premade format, copy the HTML code, and start tinkering. A spark and
fifteen minutes was all it took for Butter to announce his plan -- his
plan to eat himself to death live on the Internet, at
www.butterslastmeal.com
He set out to command the conversation, to make sure that when people talked about him it was because he invited them to. Butter expected pity, insults, and possibly sheer indifference. What he gets are morbid cheerleaders rallying around his deadly plan. Yet as their dark encouragement grows, it feels a lot like popularity And that feels good.
But what happens when Butter reaches his suicide deadline? Can he live with the fallout if he doesn't go through with it?
