Haggis, a request. When you post a new story, and you have the last post in this thread, go ahead and make a new post, rather than editing the last one. Post edits don't bump the thread, and I would have missed out on a few stories (including the one inspired by me!) if I hadn't realized what you were doing. Some people don't like multiple posts in a row, which makes sense when people are doing it to be annoying or just to increase their post count, but I think it's OK when the purpose is to let people know there's an update since yesterday.

Now, I don't want to post without another story idea, so think about this one:

Pride
Envy
Wrath
Sloth
Lust
Greed
Gluttony

But may not mention the word "sin" (or any other form, like "sins").

I would cry, but ducks have no tear ducts. That was the best story ever written about me. Granted, it's the ONLY written story about me, but that doesn't take anything away from the glory that it is. And when you compile these into a collection of short stories and they become a New York Times Bestseller, the Church of Pravetz and the Latter Day Cookies shall find new members everywhere! Now leave me. I must think. I will come up with the BEST scenarios to test your wit. I shall return.

Umm. I mean... /quack

Well, if the mods don't mind...

Anyway, here's a new story! http://bouffonbooks.com/2011/10/14/the-party/

I agree with this. I am, as we all know, a double-post-aphobe, but in this case it seems fine. Go for it mate!

Also. This is your mission, if you choose to accept it.

The Main Character
A Schizophrenic Racist with Delusions of Grandeur

The Love Interest
A Yellow Cow that can only say "Ribbit"

Other Items
A Green Balloon
A Dead Hamster
Three Gold Doubloons

Haha, yes, it's pretty much his catchphrase. Hugh Fraser did an awesome job bringing him to life in the TV series, by the way.

Oh, and here's another story: http://bouffonbooks.com/2011/10/16/confession/

(By the way, thanks for the appreciation everyone, it really means a lot!)

The UTZ girl comes off of the bag and kills a guy, but forgets to cover up the evidence…

Finish the story.

You are really far too good.

Guess it's time for another pitch from me, using my format from the first page of three lines of dialogue, two props, and a basic premise/setting, but I won't specify which is which this time. Except for the premise thing.

-A large whale.
-A Black Hole The Size of Switzerland
-King Arthur's Court
-A Revolver
-A Dumpster in an Alleyway

Premise: Everything is going wrong, and only Mild Mannered Jay Jasonson can save the day (if he can escape the chainsaw murderer's wrath, that is)!

-Day to day life as seen from the eyes of a flesh eating zombie
-Panic
-Acceptance

"And what does the library have to do with this, again?"
"dammit, where did I leave her?"
