Fantasticland by Mike Bockoven

Ok, I understand that this is a fantastical (hehe) version of lord of the flies. BUT! I worked in a theme park. And I don’t think there’s any friggin way that we’d have started slaughtering each other FOUR DAYS IN!
Also, I should have kept a tally for all the times we mentioned kids not being able to function because they didn’t have their phones/internet. Please. You know, those nineteen year old dumbass millennials stabbing each other and cutting off people’s hands cause they can’t function without a cellphone. Never mind that I’m a millennial and I’m almost thirty. And WHO THE FUCK KEEPS REAL ASS COMPOUND BOWS AND SWORDS AND SHIT IN A THEME PARK?!? I bet insuring that place was a fucking nightmare. Also, the editor really phoned it in with misspellings and odd sentences galore.
I understand what the author was going for. What would happen if kids were left on their own in the worst-ish of circumstances, and what would happen if they were in Disneyland... I... I mean FantasticLand.
But what do I know? I’m just “sharing every aspect of my life” on my phone with you.
Whatever.
