Ah... A heartwarming tale of a boy and his dog! Or is that a boy and his gun? Or a boy and his whiskey?LizPennies wrote:They gathered 'round for a telling of another far fetched fairy tale. "Dearly beloved," he began. "Oh! I love this one!"

Lot's of good twabbles don't get commented on, and some twabbles get praised that just leave you shaking your head. Thems the breaks in human endeavors.
But everybody and his dog does a cut-short twabble. there must be half a dozen of them on this forum -- and I've seen as many more elsewhere.

Yeah. I didn't mean that as a whiny "woe-is-me" type of thing. Sort of curious what people think of abrupt endings in these. It almost feels like a way of cheating the system. At the same time, I'm sure there are scenarios which feel perfectly right for it.Algernon Sydney is Dead wrote:Lot's of good twabbles don't get commented on, and some twabbles get praised that just leave you shaking your head.

Dr. Hongo schemed to rewrite the past, to rule the future. Alas, unionized history "teachers" foiled him unwittingly.

Family Splatters
Bob saw Sue again at the party. He still loved her like a sister. That is: every time she talked, he wanted to strangle her.

They told me that there are terms for people who like girls too much. One common term is 3 to 10 years in the state hoosegow.

It's not the crash landing, violent natives, or even the slow suffocation of the alien atmosphere I mind. It's just you.

Love it!
For some reason, the first person I thought of when I read this was William McKinley.
"Former President," a reporter called, "What should replace the Gold Standard you implemented in 1900?"

Each of us is special. In the ocean each drop of water counts. Likewise, we matter too - About as much as a drop in the ocean.

Anyway, I don't know what sissified, namby-pamby school you went to, but at MY elementary school, we had: a principal, a football coach, and a "board of education" (with nubs). Not sure which was the "psychologist".
