Franz Kafka leaves a one-star review for his apartment building: 'Woke up as a giant insect. Maintenance was unresponsive. Family seemed more concerned about furniture damage than my wellbeing. The apple lodged in my back was never properly addressed. Would not recommend. Also, the bureaucracy involved in filing a complaint here is somehow worse than anything I've ever written.'
An unreliable narrator was called to testify in court. The judge asked, 'Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?' The narrator replied, 'Well, Your Honor, I'll tell you what I remember happening, but I should mention I was drunk at the time, harboring resentment toward the defendant, and I may have repressed some key memories. Also, I'm not entirely sure I exist.' The prosecutor immediately moved to dismiss. 'Your Honor, I've worked with this witness beforeβhe's from a literary fiction novel. Last time he testified, the jury spent six months debating whether the crime even happened.'
