Microfiction Monday: "The Donald's New Reality Show."

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's the world's best meme, coming to you from Susan at Stony River. One of the highlights of a dangerous writer's week. Enjoy.


I said I wanted a show about people washing their dirty linen in public.

Yes, Mr. Trump.

And you gave me this! You're fired.  (134 characters)


I have to admit that Donald Trump's "The Apprentice" is my guilty reality TV pleasure. It wasn't too much of a stretch to come up with a show about washing dirty linen in public!

Have a great week, everyone. Thanks for the comments. I appreciate them and will do my best to visit you all in return.

    Inspired!

    (Thankfully we don't get any of the reality TV programs here, at least not without some considerable effort and expense).

    Like The Donald would have any first hand knowledge of how THAT's done. :)

    Funny one!

    I think I would have to agree with "the Donald" on this one...

    Haha...I don't watch that show but can just imagine Donald's frustration with the 'dirty laundry' that was aired!
    Have a great week. Cheers!
