Submitted to Contest #92

Sam threw an empty can at Tom, "Dork, pass me the popcorn." In a dull demeanor, Tom continued to surf through Netflix, ignoring Sam. Sam yelled, "Hey, fart-face, Can't you hear me?" Mike interjected, "Tom doesn't listen to jackasses." Mike then hooted and laughed, making Sam's face red with embarrassment and anger. Milly stood up, "Cut it off, guys," and passed popcorn to Sam.

At their present rate, they should infect the entire Union within 42 days." Dion stroked his beard and then said, "The infection rate isn't sufficient. Can we amp it up?" Nate looked at its consoles and tried adjusting the parameters. "I have increased the infection rate by 95%. It is the best I can give." "How long before it infects the entire targeted region?"

“Tricky” by Wizard Oblivion

Submitted to Contest #90

Helga stared at her reflection in the pool of water on the pavement. She kept running her hand on her head and imagining her beautiful tresses, the ones she so adored. She then felt her stomach and the large cut underneath her T-shirt. Sighing, she walked away. Winona was looking out her window, every day she saw a girl peek through the fences and into her garden. She saw her again, doing the same little routine. Getting up on her tiptoes, peeking through the fence, and then sometimes even jumping with the help of it to get a better view. &n...

After what we’ve been through in the past 24 hours, I can proudly say we can handle probably about anything in this world. How did I get stranded here? It is a question for which I now know the answer. The past 24 hours had started with me and my best friend, Daniel ‘Dee,’ ending up mysteriously on this island ‘Maqui’.
