Igor read Ghostworld on the train.  He giggled at something Enid said.  He looked up to see if anybody had reacted to his giggle.  No cigar.

Igor got off the train at Zambingo Community College.  He walked across the platform to 7-11.  The 7-11 cashier glared at Igor and Igor tried to appear extra-cheerful when he asked for two jalepeno cream cheese taquitos.  As he walked out of the 7-11, Igor accidentally let the door close on a man in a wheelchair.  "I'm a bad boy," thought Igor's inner child.  He finished both taquitos in 15 seconds.  "hot dog," said Igor.

Igor went to the library to read Ghostworld because he didn't want to talk to the autistic kid in his class.  He didn't like the autistic kid because his social awkwardness reminded Igor of himself.  Igor spent 15 minutes digesting 10 pages of Ghostworld and 3 chapters of Barry Gifford's "Sad Stories of the Death of Kings."  He looked up now and again at the people filing through the library.  "Not-Friend" said Igor's inner child, "Not-Friend."

Igor went to the bathroom before class.  9:27.  He had 3 minutes to auto-erotically asphyxiate himself.  

At 9:30, Igor emerged from the bathroom.  "Mission accomplished," he said to himself, smiling.

The autistic kid said hello.  Igor nodded and beamed at the autistic kid.  

The teacher arrived and everyone filed in.  Igor took out his notebook.  "fuck everybody," thought Igor.  Igor had a cowlick in his hair today and he was sweaty from autoerotically asphyxiating himself.  Such conditions incited a certain response in Igor.  "Sweat...cowlick," thought Igor.  "sweat...cowlick...sweat...cowlick...sweat...COWLICK!"

Igor stood up and took off his shirt.  The class gasped and gasped more as Igor ran around the classroom singing "I am the bravest pigeon!  I have the prettiest eggs!"

"Igor does not know anything," said the teacher.  "This is how someone who hates life behaves - by ruining it for everyone else."

Igor ran from the room.  Outside, he took off his vans and jeans.  He made a grand jetee across the 600 hall.

BTW, the teacher seems a bit smug and self-satisfied.
