There won’t be that lingering possibility of Mom going “Hey, Jay, who is this bearded man from Alaska commenting on your Facebook things?”
The answer, “Oh, that’s Ian, I met him online” isn’t a good one to give to parents, even if they’re as young and hip~ as mine.
That’s just the creepy bearded man from a frozen wasteland who comments on my facebook posts at one...

Why does this always happen:
Me: Hey, I think I have a bruise here.

Me: OWWWW FUCK ME.
Seriously though, here's a rule of the Internet:...
Course, it makes sense that TDW would run it as legit since the Cheezeburger Network is pretty much fueled by fake Facebook comment threads and the tears of innocents.
He who delights in solitude is either a wild beast or a god.

I went into work today and nobody was there
Not the two other people who should have been working, no customers, no cars in the parking lot. After about 15 minutes, I had this strange sensation that *I* wasnt supposed to be there, that maybe I had come in on the wrong day or wrong time or maybe I never worked there and just imagined the whole thing and then reality just sort of unraveled a little bit, like a loose string on your sweater you...

I'm positive that you are using them in a unique way. Even ninjas who who are just doing their job...
thelonelyteapot answered: What is the context of the story in which the ninjas are to be used?
It would take a long time to explain, and it’s actually just backstory for a character, but the detail has been tripping me up because I have this perception people are like: “NINJAS? GROOOOAAAAAAAAAAAN”
That said, it’s an intentionally over-the-top story with many ridiculous...
Avoiding cliches in storytelling is hard
INQUIRY: do you find ninjas to be cliched? Are they too trite and overused in modern storytelling? Or do you think they can still be used in the proper context? This is a serious question, I’m kind of stuck here.
