There's a particular kind of absurdity that only surfaces when you back up far enough to see the whole picture—when the thing everyone's furiously arguing about turns out to be bug spray, when the most honest advertising campaign in history was written drunk on a phone by someone who'd missed a deadline, and when the afterlife turns out to have worse HR practices than the average mid-size corporation. "Accidentally Epic" lives in that exact distance. Five stories. Each one is a modest proposal in the spirit of Swift—not advocating anything, just holding up a mirror at an angle slightly different from the one you're used to.
