Malevolent munchkins

Malevolent Munchkins by J.B. Pravda

The gang were an assortment of escaped childhood circus performers and
freaks, mostly from armpits in and around Soviet Eastern Europe, said
to be descendants of bit-part extras used-up by Hollywood for weird
perspective shots or bizarre special effects who were convinced that
the child-size tights the had been forced to wear---- not to mention
the absence of any real healthcare related union style benefits---- had
effectively compromised their physical development, compounded by the
consequent overall negative effect upon any real prospects they might
otherwise have had of ever sitting at the big people's table. In the
depths of these 'beings-to-scale' (which, let's face it, is not all
that deep) huge wrongs dwelt, wrongs that would be righted with
wrongdoing, however right they may have been in feeling wronged by the
tragic loss of their rights; hence, the credo of the
S.V.F.-----Sufferers of Vertical Fascism: 'More Than Two Wrongs Make
Rights!' or, the less popular wordy version: 'Look&;#8230;..That's
Right, Down Here, Wise Ass: If, As Modern Science Has Clearly
Demonstrated, It's the Invisible or Really Hard to See Things Which are
the Most Powerful, You're in for A World----Note: We Don't Mean that
Shitty Insincere "Small World" Crap, Either----of Hurt!' Crucial to the
dwarves' plan of vengeance was the alleged deliberate placement by the
Oz politicos----and their vertically challenged lackeys, of the Yellow
Brick Road smack in the midst of this already oppressed and servile
ghetto known as Munchkinland; this despite an abundance of data
evincing heavy projected traffic along this thoroughfare by pilgrims
off to see you know who-----added insult was the landlord's requirement
that the Munchkinites were to be present on a half-time basis based
upon regular man hours, yielding the unintended though cruel result
that all Munchkinites were on call all the time.
