Xim Xom

2021-07-11

For a couple of years now I had these small markdown files on my disk called "ximxom_part_*.md". I've always copied the around when I changed computers and I knew what they are - they are five short stories that I copied from Facebook a long time ago to read later. I never did until now.

I don't know who the author is and I can't find the original Facebook page. I only know the name "xim xom". I did a cursory internet search and found several other artifacts that look like they are from the same person:

Your Special by Xim Xom

I haven't found the short stories anywhere. They are written in a very strange style - the story is written using the first-person point of view (using I everywhere) but at the same time we see events from the point of view of another person (who also seems to be the protagonist). We don't know anything about the "first-person".

I have five parts of the story but it is not complete. I don't know if it wasn't ever completed or if I'm just missing the later parts:

./ximxom/ximxom_part_1.md

./ximxom/ximxom_part_2.md

./ximxom/ximxom_part_3.md

./ximxom/ximxom_part_4.md

./ximxom/ximxom_part_5.md

NOTE: I'm not the author of these stories. If you have more information about Xim Xom, you can message me at `luminar.mk@protonmail.com`.
