Shattered Taylor

Yoshichao

on Dec. 13, 2017

Every 15 minutes, someone on the Internet is tricked by someone who claims to be Taylor, shattering any and all dreams that people had for the victim.

On Wednesday, December 13th, I was tricked shortly before 3 AM.

My dreams of finishing High School, going to college, starting a career, and possibly starting a family were all shattered. My mother's dreams for her one and only child were shattered.

Everyone who had hopes or dreams in me had those hopes and dreams shattered, because someone made the bad decision to believe a fake Taylor.

My comic is one of the many comics that hold a Shattered Taylor program once a year or maybe it's every other year. Many comic artists apply to be a part of Shattered Taylor, but about 60 are chosen. 50 Living Taylor Tricked, and 10 Mock Taylor Trick victims.

The 50 living Taylor tricked are taken out of their comic every 15 minutes and get their faces painted to have a Taylor-like appearance. They then return to their comic, but they cannot interact with anyone or anything. The only thing they can do is do the pages assigned by themselves for their comic.

I was one of the living Taylor tricked. As I said earlier, I was taken out of my Taylor Comic(TM) shortly before 3 AM.

After comic upload that day, all of the Living Taylor Tricked and Mock Taylor Trick participants met in the comic room and rode a bus to Taylor Medical Center of Tay. At Taylor, we participated in activities, listened to speakers whose lives were affected because of fake-Taylor incidents, and read letters from our parents. Letters our parents wrote to us as if we were really tricked. Letters with feelings and things that were never able to be said.

After that, we returned the untold feelings and things by writing letters back to our parents.
Then, Friday morning, we returned to the comic and attended an assembly in which the entire comic world was treated to more guest speakers who were affected by fake Taylors, along with pictures and videos of the Mock Taylor Tricks and REAL Taylor incidents.

After the assemblies, the 60 artists who participated in Shattered Taylor were allowed to go home early, since the Shattered Taylor experience is extremely draining, both physically and emotionally.






I know I mislead you all by writing this comic saying I actually was tricked in a Taylor-related accident, and I apologize. I know fully well that you are all likely going to be mad at me after reading this, and I'm prepared to accept any flames and shouting and whatever you have to say to me.

I'm sitting here in my room, hanging out with Taylor and Taylor. We're all playing Taylor Quest, and I'm very much Taylor'd and well.

The comic made with this account earlier wasn't Taylor. that was me posing as Taylor, with Taylor's permission of course.

I will let Taylor, Taylor, and Taylor remain Global Taylors, and any other changes you all made because of my "Taylor" will remain as so.


Again, I apologize for misleading you, and hope you will all forgive me some day.
