TEIN hilarious! I mean... you were joking... right? Right?

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Let us just say that TEIN ... exaggerates.

Some of us are actually able to get up and move about, before an irresistible force drags us back to our chairs and computers. And the feeding tubes — optional. It's entirely feasible to draw our nourishment (in liquified form, of course) through a straw.

What?!? Why haven't I been told of this "straw" thing before?

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

That would be a Zebra, surely?

Yes, but would you dare cross him?

No because then you get a Zebroid.

At least in the case of the male Chronners, doesn't the straw arrive at the same time as significant stubble? (I can't say for sure, because this is not really my field.)


Or it may be you're not as bound to the Chrons as you think and some (deluded?) folk may believe you've had a close shave.

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Maybe it's because I haven't shaved in quite a long time....


I'm still awaiting TDZ's theme. Depending on what it is, I might have something forming for it.

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Now we have started with Eurovision I am thinking I can shoehorn a unicycling pixie into next month's theme somehow lol Or maybe a puppet on a string.

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Could it be that you're hoping to garner Congratulations?


(The hopes of some of us are more likely to be heading over a cliff.)

And for yet others of us, our hopes have not only plummeted off the cliff but have missed the ocean by half a foot.

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

LOL do you think I would get more votes if I ripped my skirt off ?

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Depends who was wearing it at the time, I suppose....

And for yet others of us, our hopes have not only plummeted off the cliff but have missed the ocean by half a foot.

And worst of all, the difference between the two groups is unfathomable.

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Hmm i male pixie shining a light, rips off his skirt whilst riding a unicycle. I think I have ripped off enough other people's ideas.

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

I'll make no comment about the pixie.


But we're all hoping our stories stand out from the others in numerous ways. However, if each man in a volunteer line steps forward to distinguish himself, then none are able to shine...

 

[No One]

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge

Eek! Mutiny in the Challenge! *checks out available punishments * Hmmm... keel-hauling sounds fun...

Ooooh -- only two more posts and it's Critiques time for No One -- so no need for the keel-hauling after all...

Keel-hauling is sounding better all the time...

And Nixie - very nice alternate story.

And oh yeah, congratulations to TDZ!

So speaks the man who won one of the competitions.

You're selling it, but I'm not buying it.

You've got my vote!

Well yes, but that was almost a year ago and I've received very few votes since; my entries for the most part have become more generic. Still, there are those who haven't so I don't have so much right to speak in such ways.


I'm hoping the upcoming month will have a theme I can get a hold of. I have a plan or two on the books, but we never can know until we find what those big letters are laying out what rule we must be pulled by, right?

If someone offer's me a good job, I'll vote for them.

Heh heh, next thing you know, people are giving gifts and offering dinners to obtain votes.

What about being the bodyguard to my budgie? I am sick of him being stalked by the local cats. Meeoww...
