Philippe LaJoie, the Walnut Man v2

Retooled but not lengthened. It's amazing what I could fit into 300 words once I cut the fluff. Interested to hear how this could be further tightened.

Crit: 1389

EDIT: For clarity, the last word of the first paragraph, formerly "trivialists," now reads "paradoxographers."

Trying my hand at some flash fiction. I picked 300 words as a limit because that's about what this came out to, and I'm sure I've seen places that set a cap of 300 words on flash fiction.
