Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I told you to buy Glad brand. Haven’t you seen their ads? Glad bags will hold his cut-up body just fine, no leaks!”
Pretty sure that when Glad was planning their marketing campaign, they didn’t think their target market would be a bunch of middle-aged Chinese women arguing about how to best dispose of a body.
“Oh! Yes, yes, good point, Meddy. Yes, it is like one of those fish in restaurant, you know, they alive in tank and then they kill right before eating . . .” Ma’s voice trails off as she notices our blank stares. “Never mind, it is not like that at all,” she says.
It’s not like I can WhatsApp Selena and go, “Big Aunt approves of my corpse disposal idea!!!”
The first groomsman laughs. “Nooo. Don’t tell anyone, okay?” He leans forward as if he’s about to reveal some secret, but his voice is still as loud as ever. “The groom ain’t got no friends. So he hired us to be his groomsmen. Most of us never met each other until last night.” He laughs again. “It’s the funniest shit.”
This explains so much. No wonder Tom’s been so weird around his groomsmen. No wonder he’s been ordering them around as if they’re his employees. Because they are!
