What I liked

The deliberate and hilarious surrealism of the characters and scenes.

What I didn't like

Expand from short form to longer form.

My overall impression

Comic dystopian cannibalism—a weird and hilarious take on an authoritarian capitalist society in which people have become the product, and consumers the consumed. It is written in broad strokes, as befits the theme, so if you are looking for realism in dialogue and character development, you are likely to miss the humor. Let the story and its unusual characters unfold for you on its (their) own terms, and you will enjoy a weird and wonderful half an hour.
