Part Forty-Three (May 4,1972)

While I was tidying up the living room, and while Charlie was waiting in line for the phone, Jeremy entered the room. As he did so, Charlie instantly requested that he retrieve the porn from his backpack, and put it away, as he didn't have time to personally take care of it. Since we were in the presence of my parents, he euphemistically referred to it as, "the book that [he] was borrowing from Lyle". Jeremy reluctantly agreed, and headed upstairs.

After a minute or so, I decided to help him, as he didn't know how to properly sort my magazines. As I entered the room, I noticed that he couldn't resist the urge to dig into my other box. "What are you doing?" I screamed.

"Lyle," Jeremy stated, "I think that we need to talk about this."

I sat beside him, trying to figure out what to say, as Jeremy flipped through the pages of the magazines that I had forbidden him from reading. Unsure of my excuse, I merely watched him turn through them.

To his horror, he had discovered that every face of every model had been systematically cut out with a pair of scissors, and that each face had been crossed out with a Sharpie. Some of the women were even given tentacles. And, on the last page, I had drawn a crude representation of Slender Man, accompanied by the words, "I disapprove." I had done this to every last magazine in the box.
