El Monaguillo
Efectiviwonder is a journey through El Monaguillo’s childhood and the contrasts between then and now. He recalls how, as kids, there were no diagnoses and certainly no TikTok; fun meant throwing stones, and if a friend ended up with a head wound, you’d say: “what a great afternoon I had”. Communication was through a plastic cup and a string — and sometimes even the signal dropped.
As for mothers, they didn’t just earn heaven, they had it registered in their name. His own mother would look up to the sky every morning and say: “Lord, take me soon”. And yet there she is, claiming she would have swapped him for the boy from The Exorcist, since she feared him more than a fat guy fears a plastic chair.
As today’s kids would put it: “come see me, bro — this show’s worth it, and you’ll have a blast”.
