I would have just left it a surprise

“The tree came outta nowhere!” The officer wouldn't have believed him except—the back seat of his patrol car was in the front seat, hugging a tree, in the middle of the highway. The trees were taking back the forests. Every road, every KOA RV park, every dell where high school kids go to toss beer c...

As a child playing in my uncle's house I often marveled at the various family relics that he had ended up with: my great grandfather's self portrait, a scent gland from a beaver. But on his mantel was a box he said was very special. He said I couldn't touch it, but someday it would be mine. After he...

“Master, I have climbed this mountain to be a student of yours. Please, teach me the ancient ways,” the young man said with his face to the ground. “Hmm, yes, you have climbed this mountain—this is true. Ah! But I can see you have much to learn,” the teacher remarked, stroking his long, white ear ha...

Father McCartney was torn and died before deciding whether to take up the violin or the viola. He ended up in viol-limbo.

"Bring me: a grimoire, wolf snot and a yeasty lump, and I will make your podcast another episode!" cackled the conjurer.

"Please? He's a good cat," Nell begged. "We can't move with him—you love cats!"
"Honestly, my freezer's full already."


true story

There was the asteroid belt, and then there was Herb. “Hey guys,” he said, “remember a while back (5.1 billions years) when I said something about not orbiting the sun? Well, I've been . . .” “Shut up Herb! Just be an asteroid like everybody else.” they jeered. “. . . thinking,” he continued. Herb w...

“Tamarack, you're my most trusted servant. I'm going abroad to do business. You're in charge of my house and everything in it while I'm away.” said the rich Egyptian. He gathered many valuable goods and many of his slaves and traveled to foreign lands. On return, after much time, he passed a multitu...

I just like listening to George Costanza's parents. I think I will probably write more like this. “That dinner party should've been called a thinner party—their food's awful.” emphasized Nev. “I just wanna get home.” Henry grumbled. “Henry, slow down, you always drive too fast, Henry!” she nagged. “...

I'm into metaphors when they're eloquent like that

My favorite part of this story, the 71 seconds of silence at the end!
But seriously, that outro was great. Made me giggle.

Deep, gravely voice: In a world where his way of life is being taken over by a new generation, one man will accept any assignment he can. You know him from action blockbusters such as: Super Mega-Beast Death Match VIII, The Tomahawk Of Justice, and The Itchy Trigger Tentacle. Coming soon, Sherm Norm...

Lonely? Desperate? I'll be there. That's good to know because I was getting into the idea. So if it's just been hibernating, Imma go poke it with stick.

“I, uh, heard there was someone here who, uh, you know . . .” Stephen mumbled. “See that old man sucking on pennies in the corner, that's him.” said the barkeep. Stephen sat across from him. Neither of the old man's eyes were looking toward him. “Yes? Do you have knots for me to untie? I'm a seer of...

After another late shift

Rode the late bus home
Only this night

Hey I forgot about the trifectas. Maybe I should listen to the show more often? But I have a question too. I had something I thought would be perfect for the dribblecast but it seemed like there had been no activity there for a while. I think I'm misunderstanding some part of it. PS Some people are ...

I got an idea—could there be an episode, perhaps annually, that features only drabbles and twabbles not used in other episodes? I have only been lurking in the forums for a few weeks yet (as far as you now, I'm very good at lurking), but there are many very good stories that for obvious reasons were...

On the battlefield a Pew! Pew! laser canon emitted a ribbon of softly translucent light, that gently cycled through all the colors of the rainbow. Elsewhere, another teddy bear peered through the scope of his Pop! Pop! rifle. The scope was actually a bubble wand and, with back drafts, several bubble...

I contended four hours to no avail I could not wrest away the plush blue whale I sacrificed more than most ever gain But I swore in my anger I would not suffer shame Blistered thumbs, a migraine, an aching back Hundreds of quarters I will never get back Yet I bested the claw machine at the ice hocke...
