Usually a pretty accurate picture.
Welkommen

We're supposed to be wearing underwear!? Why did no one tell me sooner!?
Welcome Melliema.
A story doesn't have to have be happy, to gain happiness from a story.

She waits on the beach tired every night for his return. She loved him once. Fingers wrap a cold pistol. She fears him now.

Hot leaded.

I've been in many a city and village. And I've learned that the people with the most "cleansing rituals" smell the worst.

Idea based off the narrator of, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.
The first three twables in The Morbid Collection: Events of Death.
You Won't See Me
People often say they see me in cemeteries. Yet, my physical presence is not there, for people rarely die in cemeteries.
73 seconds away
I have traveled beyond the confines of earth, in the winter of 1986. There I found a collection of souls, post explosion.
What took place during the play: My American Cousin
A spectacular performance Mr. Booth, and yes, I did get his soul. It only managed to get across the street of the theatre.
I will also record this for Dribblecast.
Umm... left then right

Yikes, you trying to scare him away with that video??
Actually, I saw a local theatre production of it, and it was almost better.

“Don’t worry,” she said leaning into the back seat where I struggled, “if you were in real danger, you’d be in the trunk.”

A mere 36 Just Men, delayed Armageddon.
And God smiled at his joke; for their one true purpose was to care for the puppies.

The flyer he gave me said 'Protect our Borders,' but when I brought my shotgun to the fiction section, they kicked me out.
Communism was just a red herring!

Motivation is what gets you started.
Habit is what keeps you going.
Wife is what tells you that you royally screwed it up.

I drive a taxi in Brooklyn. Driving around today, an orange dreadlocked supermodel fell out of the sky in my cab. Leeloo?

So many apocalypse models were wrong: zombies, robots, viruses, vampires. Not even. It was gene-mod pot bellied pigs.

"'Til death do us part," he cooed back. She grinned slyly from behind her veil and couldn't wait for him to taste the cake.

I went to the funeral. I had known cousin Bob was stupid. Really, how do you hope to keep a nasty shapeshifter in a shoebox?

Norman looked into the eyes of his brand new bride and the words rose from his very soul. "Better dead than wed!" he cried.

"Nothing's too good for you, son." If my father were only less proud and less religious. Fifty virgins are better alive.

I agree! Reminds me of the story about the enraged cubicle workers attacking the sysops.
