right now I'm in my school library and have about 45 minutes to waste so I thought about making up a story and try to put a bunch of features song titles in it. here it goes

The other night I was in my car having a nice drive in the moonlight and noticed on the road some engine debris. I was so confued as to what it could be. Then passed an old stagecoach on the side of the road that had Treehouse Club written on the side of it. as I passed it came after me. they made me run off the road. I decided to take action, but there was nothing I could do, I was captured. This was the beginning to a horrible story. They took me in to some darkroom and laid me down on a table. I found out that their names were Harold, Jurley, Karie Ann, and Lou. As I came to I said "hey Lou", and asked what was going on. They told me they were incerting a Waffle House menu in my heart, so I could know it by heart. They said "this is a serious opperation but we will see you through." I said "dont lie to me, I know this isn't all your doing, I saw you put that shiny metal object in me!" They said "you're right we have chosen a new body style for you, it's the design we chose and that's the way it's ment to be." I knew I had to escape someway, somehow, so I pulled the extension cord out of the wall and ran. As I got out I realized the damage is done, I would never be the same. I had the head of a man and the body of a stark white stork. Now you can come see me and laugh at me. I am exhibit A at the circus dancing to records playing at the speed of 33 1/3. Yes yes yes, I get alot of attention and if i ever see you come visit me and i see your smile, I'll know it's not out of kindness.

You must be in Final Exam twilight zone or something...what a way to relieve the mental stress of college.

nice story I'm not that creative...

Somehow I might have added more violence though tongue.gif hey violevnce makes the world go round ph34r.gif

Try these sometime...

Top 3 things to do in the Library when bored:

1.) Ask the people at the desk for directions to the stairs!

2.) Bug the people who work in the Copying Center (call them over so they can help u make copies of a picture or Keanu Reeves or somebody *your choice*)

3.) Make the detectors go off on purpose! (try a rented DVD from Blockbuster or perhaps a real book)

*** If all else fails become that annoying person on a cell phone who is talking TOO LOUD for the Library. Please add and variate your laughter! blink.gif

Clever. That's weird though because I was trying to think up one yesterday before I read your post. I didn't do very well..

that was really good. i don't think im that creative. i'll try. this is in the form of a letter.

hey lou, remember that time at the beginning of the school year when we went to the circus? well when you weren't looking, i gulped down 33.3 millileters of absynth. that's why i kept commenting on your smile, like i had never seen one before. anyway, that ugly chick who carried around the stark white stork? (i think her name was karie-ann) well apparently in my drug induced haze, i oferred, "may i walk you home?" and gave her my phone number. she called me yesterday and asked me to meet her at the treehouse club for a pitcher of brew. like a fucking dumbass, I went. when i got there, she took me into a 2 x 2 foot dark room. then she opened a window so there was just a little bit of moonlight in the room. she started chanting in tongues like she was excorsizing demons or something. then she ripped open my shirt and screamed "Oh my love! take me!" the wisest course of action would have been to get the fuck outta there and leave it all behind. I wanted to smack her and say "blow it out yer ass!" but it was like i was in a trance or something. the last thing i remember was, she pulled out a huge extension chord and hit me over the head with it.

when i came to, i was in a stagecoach sitting next to a giant bloody buffalo head. i started to button my shirt when i was attacked by a damn bumblebee. when i tried to kill it, i noticed the design on my arms. it looks exactly like that bitch karie-ann. anyway, now i think im losing my mind. i'm serious. i can't pay attention to anything but the radio one and i howl at the moon at night. i have an appointment with a therapist this thursday.

don't ever take me to the circus again, dude. i might end up as part of a rabbit march parade or something.
sincerely,
Harold.
thank you for being a friend.

I got in huge trouble in 7th grade for writing down this pornographic story about candy bars that I read (and memorized) on a keychain at Spencer Gifts in Hickory Hollow mall. It wasn't even me who was caught with it. It was some douchebag "friend" of mine who turned me in.

I wish I could remember the whole thing, but it was something about Mr. Goodbar wanting a BitOHoney on Payday. He finds MaryJane and ends up rubbing her Mounds while she squeezes his Zagnuts and he eventually lets loose with a Milky Way... Yes, I've always been this dirty.

What a fun idea! Here's my entry...


One day, Harold telephoned his friend Lou. He said, "Hey, Lou. My friend Jamie Carroll plays bass, provides backing vocals, and advertises merchandise for a band called Willie and the Willigers. They're playing a secret show at Fast Pub on Saturday night. Would you like to go?"

"There's a million ways to sing the blues, and this ain't one of them," replied Lou.

"That ho, Kari Anne, that you have a crush on will probably be there," added Harold.

Lou said, "Waffle House Menu."

"'Waffle House Menu'?!? What does that mean?"

"Ummm... never mind," said Lou. "I've been taking lots of drugs so I sometimes say incoherent things. If Kari Anne's going, I'll definitely thirty-three and a third... uh... I mean... I'll go."

"Great!"

On Saturday, the two gentlemen went to the pub. They arrived early and got to talk to Jamie before she had to play. "So what are you guys thinking of playing?" Harold asked his musically-inclined friend.

"Would you like to peruse our set list?" asked Jamie as she handed him a piece of paper covered with handwriting. "These are just some ideas," she added.

Harold's eyes grew wide as he read the list. It included all of his favorites like "48", "5/4", "Action", "Antigravity Class of '93", "Armani Suede", "Attention", "The Beginning (Week One)", "Blow It Out", "Bring on the Night", "Buffalo Head", "Bumblebee", "Burma", "Button My Shirt", "Captain Williams", "Circus", "Could've Been", "D-Con (Radio One)", "The Damage is Done", "Darkroom", "The Design", "Disco", "Discotheque", "Don't Lie to Me", "Engine Debris", "Exhibit A", "Exorcising Demons", "Extension Cord", "Growing Old", "God Save Rock 'n' Roll", "I Won't Let You Down", "Jurley", "Leave It All Behind", "Look Out Below", "Matt's Little Ditty", "Me and the Skirts", "Moonlight", "Oh My Love", "Paid to Think", "Rabbit March", "Roger's Theme", "See You Through", "Serious", "Situation Gone Bad", "Smooth", "Someway, Somehow", "Soon Discover", "Stagecoach", "Standing By", "Stark White Stork Approaching", "Stick Together", "Temporary Blues", "That's Me", "Thursday", "Treehouse Club", "Two by Two", "Walk You Home", "The Way It's Meant to Be", and "Your Smile."

"Wow!" exclaimed Harold. "This is going to be an awesome show."

And indeed it would have been. Unfortunately, Willie and the Willigers booked Great White as the opening act. Their Satanic music summoned a dragon from the nether regions of Hell who promptly ate all in attendance at the show.

The End

I'm not sure... but I think that's cheating somehow, TF.
I'm disqualifying you from the game.
