TMW you sidestep the collapse of the prior member because everyone knows what team you bat for and you don't want anyone getting the wrong idea.
TMW you wonder if its ethical to go through links pockets in order to find the money for a drinking session umm i mean... to get him a cab to the hospital ... then find the point is moot as he only has 33 cents, a fruit machine token, a beer mat with a phone number written on it in lipstick, and a very fluffy toffee
Closely followed by TMW when you look at his recumbent form and decide theres no harm in eating the toffee and calling the number....
<strangles the both of you suddenly> TMW you snap back to consciousness and see that you're choking Wrey and Big Soft Moose.
TMW you curse out your hobby knife for having a dull tip, then stab your finger with it trying whilst trying to put the cover back on. Very minor, ironic flesh wound.
TMW you write to a more senior manager and you think you've covered your arse by writing "I am not questioning your personal integrity" ... only on reading back several hours after clicking send you discover that you actually wrote " I am questioning your personal integrity" Oh fuck my life
TMW you see this video () and you suddenly get TRIGGERED enough to write a scathing commentary that these people aren't really deformed because their so-called "deformity" doesn't debilitate their lives, nor does it cause them to be shunned from society. @123456789 , you'll love this TMW.
TMW you see a funny little comic strip.. block.. thingy.. on Facebook and so you go to the page and read the rest and realize you genuinely don't understand the world people are engaging today because, save for the first funny one you found, the rest aren't just not funny, they don't even make any sense to you. Like... none.
That moment when you realise that all the preparation you've done for the interview has only served to prove how UNprepared you are.
TMW you want to cut 300 words out of 4k for a contest. Come on people, 300? That's virtually nothing. I was absolutely convinced that taking care of my critiquers' comments would do the trick. Filler words? Passive voice? I'm aiming for streamlined writing and there are always words which aren't as exact as they could be. But after taking care of the critiquers comments, I find myself with only 150 words cut .
Give it a day or so. Be ruthless. I can always find more words to cut, haha. I had to do this recently and after much deliberation and headache, I wound up with a better product.
Yeah well, it's not the first time I cut this chapter. I pruned multiple times in the past. I still have 14 days grace, luckily
That Moment When you start having random writers, comedians, and actors follow you on Twitter and you don't know why... but then you think you must have made a follower out of one person and the rest are just piggybacking hoping you will follow back.
TMW you are amazed @Lewdog just won the freakin' lottery here, yet he's examining the metaphorical gift horse in the mouth. DUDE! Bask in the glow!
That moment when you realise that the new spoilers written on your chalkboard are actually just a different variation of the old ones. That moment when you really should have had that plot issue fixed by now.
TMW you write a future scene in your fantasy and it turns out to be... A scene where young Mishu Jerni finds herself recovering in a cave somewhere outside the main city, and the person who rescued her is a Devonian woman who had, uh, ‘rejoined nature’. By that, I mean in all aspects including no clothes. Let me just repeat that. Mishu wakes up and discovers she's in a cave, and her rescuer is a nude cat-lady.
Sounds like the worse case scenario at that point is being eaten by fleas or ticks. Though I am sure a naked feline humanoid is not the worst sort of creature who could have rescued your MC.
