The cereal box said there was a surprise inside. I prodded the many-legged thing and couldn't claim false advertising.

This thing's starting to smell.

Excellent twitt. Like the poem form too.

Aw man....that's a good question. If Zombies aren't all pop culture made them out to be...yech. Can you imagine coming home from the funeral to find Great-Aunt Nora popping Cheez-Os and complaining about her maggots? Euch. Now that's scary.

Read this on your blog. I really like these sorts of drabbles you do, they're full of so much imagery you can't properly imagine. I like that.

I was waiting for God to show up and say "Actually, this whole planet was a simulation to test if you were capable of making simulations!"

Head hurts now.

whoa, nice.

I'm fond of facial hair, as may surprise you, but even fonder of hair where it shouldn't be - namely, in gutters. Fantastic drab.

Starbucks inspired?

Nice drab. I might break it up with some paragraph breaks, it makes it more readable and enticing. Trick the brain into thinking it's shorter.

I liked it.

In light of the NSA I was reminded to post it. This was actually the first drabble I ever wrote. Almost a year ago. Weird how fast time goes.

I don't know why this made me think of this. Years since I've seen it...my computer had a square screen... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdS2kCUGvfo I like it with sisters. Oh my Odin, what a horrid fate...can you imagine when she's in her thirties and her eight-year-old sister is still...or in her...

Not everything living in old houses has a SIN; some have rats in the vents or bats in the attic. We’ve got elephants in the walls. They're quite quiet; it's easy to forget they’re there. We talk of things we oughtn’t. Until there's a sneeze beyond the damask wallpaper. We cease discussing Fido’s inf...

Hey Doc, I did a pic of this after reading this piece - I liked the imagery. Just a doodle. [url http://trickstermongoose.tumblr.com/image/61823395945

Jane don't need new friends. She's got me. So what if I'm invisible? It just means Jane's new friends won't see me coming.

Tales, child. You shouldn't believe in silly things like cities. Only Urg make things. Move over - my turn for bellyrub.

Before the Urgs tamed men, life was hard. Be content, child. Eat your kibbles and have a bellyrub. Things are better now.

Well put, Mr. M. I really love this drabble, by the way. One of your best yet. ...And your animated avatar... disturbing if you've just left the browser page open and it starts blinking at ya... :shock: :D 8) That was the idea. I didn't want it to interfere with people reading my drabble, but I rat...

Free-range Big Mac. It's terrible what we do to those majestic creatures. At least McDonald's can breed them now. Old Mcdonald had a farm....eieieoo - and on this farm there were some burgers - eieioo. With a burg-burg there and a bang-bang here - here a burg, there a bang, everywhere a bang-burg.

Fantastic work, Vard. But if I'd the computer for Facebook, I'd just type phrases like "We are the bestest of besties" into word and right-click speech - loop. No need for all that carpel-tunnel syndrome.

Either that or join myspace. You'd be totally alone, but at least you'd have Tom.

I'd roll out the Welcome Mat, but you've already dripped pluripotent cells all over the floor. Nice start, hope to see more.
