I was waiting for a bus at late at night when suddenly, the shadow of a unknown creature cast over me.

Turns out, little monkey fella.

I genuinely believed it would solve one of the greatest issues plaguing social media.

But alas, my recommendation to automatically replace "your" and "you're" with "yer" was rejected. yet again.

I don't understand, everything seemed to be great, we'd watch Netflix every night.

But then you changed your password.

I spent hours searching the attic, untangling the cables, and freezing my fingers off setting everything up.

Seeing everyone's faces light up brighter than the decorations made it all worthwhile in the end.

Finally I was deemed old enough to meet my biological mother my sister held my hand

Time went on and nobody arrived and then I realised as my sister looked at me that my mother had been in the room all the time.

I'm sorry I made you feel that you had to completely avoid me.

If you need to come to my area to do your job, there won't be any issues - you can trust that I would always remain professional.

As her delicate hands gripped my shoulders, the starship's commander leaned forward, whispering the order to fire into my ear.

With heaving breath and flushed cheeks, my eyes tracked from the weapons console in front of me to the residential starstation in the Target Lock; my home.

I fucking hate that you pity me.

You had a thing for me for damn near a decade, and now you feel nothing except soooo baddd for breaking my heart. 😭

The old man who saved my child's life disappeared into the crowd before I could thank him, yet there was something oddly familiar about him.

Leafing through some old photo albums, I finally recognized the face of my father who vanished from my life when I was my child's age.

Just when I thought he cared for me.

Everything turned into a lie.

The chaotic scene that greeted me in the kitchen was my mother trying to wrestle the plate of roast beef away from my grandfather while telling him, "This will kill you and your diet."

His response was, "But at least I'll die fat and happy."

I don't how or why the word "gay", which used to mean "joyful" and "carefree", came to be associated with homosexuality.

Ever since I came out, I have experienced nothing but depression and anxiety.

We stared at the x-ray in disbelief.

To counter the growing panic, I tried to make light of the situation by saying, "At least the exterminator doesn't need to tear open the wall to find the nest anymore."

Land of Wonder

Cheshire’s body remained perfectly still as its massive head rotated counter clockwise ever so slowly. Several seconds passed, her neck twisting further still until a pair of eyes the size and luminance of a full moon stared into mine.

"Our kingdom calls for aid and all our allies send is a meager handful of broken and battered men?" complained the Chancellor, barely concealing his contempt.

With a somber look, one of the soldiers replied, "We are all that survived the journey."

The Photo…

Despite her desire to smash the frame and rip the photo apart with her teeth, Anna holds the 6 x 4 glass square between two fingers as if it’s a rare, fragile gem. A mother, a son, and a father smile back at her, arms wrap around each other, eyes twinkling with love.

"We're not trying to be controversial, but it doesn't matter what you identify as, or what pronouns you use."

"If you have, or were born with, XY chromosomes, you need to get vaccinated immediately because this virus is lethal to you."

By switching costumes we were able knock on the same doors multiple times without anyone suspecting.

The candy was nice, but the seniors seemed genuinely delighted to have so many trick-or-treaters stopping by.

After asking about the controversial abortion bill they were going to pass, the senator told me I shouldn't have an opinion on things I don't understand.

So, for a follow-up question, I asked him how much experience he had being pregnant.

The lowering of the conscription age by another year was marketed as a means for the young and patriotic to join in the war efforts.

All it did was expose how poorly our side was doing.

After a long night, I've killed three vampires, six zombies and nine ghosts.

My body count would have been a lot higher, but I had to keep pausing the game to hand out candy to the steady stream of trick-or-treaters.

I knew I had to put him down because he had become rabid, but I couldn't imagine my life without him.

Holding him close despite his newfound aggression, we went over the edge together.

We called the cops on the man trying to donate multiple kidneys, like it was some kind of sick joke.

What really worried us, however, was the visible bite marks taken out of each organ.

After I have sex with someone, they will have their most desirable wish granted within 24 hours.

It took me a long time to discover this ability because the power becomes negated once consent is given.

"What do you call a monster with two heads, three arms, and an insatiable desire for death and destruction?"

"If anyone survives, I'll let them decide," shrugged the mad scientist before unleashing his creation upon the unsuspecting town.

Don't fret about not being the smartest nor the strongest nor the most creative.

You are when there was a chance you might not even have been, and that's enough for me to love you.

In the vein of "Latinx", I decided to start using gender-neutral pronouns "xe", to replace "he/she/they", and "xem", to replace "him/her/them".

If you don't like it, then please, for the love of all things holy, come up with something better before this stupid idea catches on.

The convict had the audacity to petition the judge for time off from his sentence to spend with his wife and children.

The judge ruled that he could spend as much time with his family as the woman he killed could spend with hers.

She used to run to me and smile.

Until a drunk driver ran into her one morning on her daily run.
