PRINT - Easter Island Man by Colin Batty

Easter Island Man

Reginald Thornebrush was your average 19th-century explorer until he accidentally leaned too hard against a cursed Moai during a photo op in the South Pacific. The locals warned him not to “poke the ancients,” but Reginald—being both skeptical and very British—declared, “Pish posh!” and promptly became embedded in stone.

Now partially fossilized and entirely inconvenient at dinner parties, Reginald spends his days half-buried in the volcanic soil of Kansas, occasionally offering unsolicited philosophical advice to passing livestock. His granite-based torso is impervious to weather, bullets, and emotional intimacy.

Historians remain baffled, while pigeons remain delighted.
