  1. There are those moments that make me wonder… Why is google maps putting the dining symbol on a pet shop?  Go for the amazing sensation of goldfish squirming on the way down?

      They don't call 'em feeder tanks for nuthin'.

      Given how my Potter fanfic is developing, I’m having to lean in heavily onto google maps, which is why I’m picking up on more of these details.

  2. “Beware the Ides of March!”

      Can’t ask for a better end, dying surrounded by friends :smartass:

  3. Happy PI day everybody!

  4. I may have found this website’s theme song….

     

     

  5. At least for the forensic pathologist, the patients aren’t going anywhere, they’re dying to see you :)

  6. My potter fanfic has now crossed the 2Mword mark (on the hard drive, it’ll take more for the online total to cross it too).

  7. Another random quote

    Quote

    “My ex-wife would need three suitcases for a one-night stand.”

     

  8. Well, if I wanted crispy squirrel bits, now's the chance, the squirrel must've loved the transformer.

      Well, they're more than meets the eye.

      Short story is hearing the pow and losing power, there was a squirrel in a frozen dive off the power pole.

  9. How thoughtful that spammers are self-reporting themselves in the “Trolls/Flamers/Spammers” section of the forums… sigh.  Can we hang/draw/quarter them?

      We’re bringing back Wicker Man Wednesdays. :fthrower:

      Good.  I could be persuaded to stop off for some hotdogs and marshmallows!  :)

  10. Quote

    It was Snape's fault, definitely Snape's fault. He forced me to sample my own potion during class, and there were... side-effects. Madam Pomfrey wasn't able to fully sort me out.

     

  11. January was a bit underwhelming, only 85.8k written :(

  12. Found the perfect spot in my story to go on hiatus!   Right as I’ve got shark teeth pinching down on Harry, nobody’ll mind a three year wait on that, right?  :devil:   Alternatively, could say eff-it, and kill him outright… THE END! 🤣

  13. Dunno why my mind came up with this quote, it was there when I woke up...still, be good starter for a story.

    Quote

    After 38 years of marriage, I’m proud to say that my wife is still a virgin.

      ...or an opening joke from a Borscht Belt comedy routine.  Did you ever visit the Catskills in the ‘60s through the ‘80s?  Or, maybe you’re just channeling Rodney Dangerfield or Henny Youngman?  In my mind’s ear, I can hear either man saying exactly that on stage.

      You could use the quote to open an Al Czervik based Caddyshack fan-fiction.

      Cheers!

      It’s provocative to say the least.  Maybe the man’s an idiot?  Maybe the man’s saying his wife’s too ugly to fuck?  Maybe she’s refusing his advances?  (And sneakily bopping his sister instead.)  Maybe he’s fitted a chastity belt onto her?  Number of reasons go through my head, which is about as interesting to the fact the mind spat that out yesterday morning as I woke up.

      Option two would definitely be up Youngman’s alley.

      Meanwhile, I’ve been stuck with a Suzanne Vega earworm for the past several hours.  And, there’s nothing I can do do do duh do do do duh about it.  Not kidding about the earworm, though.

      Cheers!

  14. Reminding everybody that if you find yourself on an alien planet in need of medical treatment, ask for a veterinarian.

      Just make sure they don't throw in the free spay or neuter with your treatment.

  16. 2023 recap…  On my potter fanfic, 736k written, and 106 chapters posted.  On Jefferey, 112k written, 19 episodes posted.

  17. When the mind's stumped, spontaneously add in a murder attempt to the story, that’ll spice things up.

    1. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      And… chasing this rabbit hole, it’s likely going to change into a successful killing (one of the party, because, you know….).

    2. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      Yeah, the “attempt” bit has left the plot bunny.

      Hey now, that’s a little extreme doncha think?

      The dream I was having was a bit weirder, so I came up with that instead.

  19. Guess I’m a bit of a slacker this month, only 129k written :(

    1. InBrightestDay

      InBrightestDay

      As someone who wrote only a few hundred words last month, I feel like you might have a different definition of “slacker” from the rest of us. 😄

    2. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      lol… yeah.  After September’s 156.6k, I’ve set my goal to 150k/month.  High, but not impossible.  (October fell short too.)

  20. Happy Turkey Day everybody (though I’m opting for pork loin this year).  🦃

    1. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      Happy Thanksgiving to all that are celebrating today! (I’m having a delayed celebration on Sunday so my family can be here, but it’ll be the traditional massive turkey and all the trimmings!)  🍗🥧🍷🍂

  21. That fun, awkward moment when you introduce alternate realities, and now need to keep the characters sorted between them.

      I ended up using the ² so it became Harry vs Harry² as a general distinction.  If I ever need three, there’s also the ³

  22. First day in a month that I haven’t posted a chapter to my fanfic (other website), feels weird.  Still, managed 31-chapters in a row before I ran out of ones ready to post.

  23. Human Treats now made with 99% recycled humans.”

      Might not get a Halloween story in this season, but I can get in some funny adverts :devil:

  24. It’s the 30th, so just because I made it to 150k today, does not mean I’ll be able to slide the goal post to 200k.  Maybe next month I’ll hit that?

  25. Another passing of Dumbledore, the second actor Michael Gambon 1940-2023.

    1. Wilde_Guess

      Wilde_Guess

      He was a very good actor in many things.  It would have been nice if he’d stuck around healthy for a few more years, but eighty-three isn’t young, even now.  All of us who appreciate a well-acted role will miss him.
