Some Day Driver

by ARthur

A woman saw a baby boy sitting alone in a padded stroller looking unhappy, so she went over to inspect. "Are you all right?" she asked. Much to her surprise, the boy replied in a high whining voice, "Sort of..."

Reacting to her astonished look, the baby continued, "My name is Jeffy and until a few days ago, I was the executive manager of an e-commerce startup. But then I made the mistake of driving through a small town named Aphid after a lunch with investors. I ended up before the justice of the peace there, who is famed for using metaphysical powers to punish lawbreakers," Jeffy noted. "I've heard of him," the woman said.

"The judge accuses me of driving drunk over the speed limit on a suspended license. I denied all charges. But the judge replied that if the other courts wouldn't keep me off the road, he would. I snickered at his threat, so the judge waved his hands and made me too young operate a car for a long time," Jeffy added.

"How horrible. A grown man turned into a baby! No wonder you're unhappy," the woman said. "I'm not unhappy over that. I actually kind of like being a very young boy again," Jeffy said. "I'm unhappy because the judge also did this to my Jaguar XKR Convertible," he added, patting the side of his stroller.
