Writing.com : "Blah blah blah 3 words about Eskimos!"
Informed reader: "That's actually a racial slur, and has been for quite some time."
Writing.com : "Pardon me while I explain away my ignorance with being American!!!"

Real classy...

Let's all take the time this holiday season to share a moment of solidarity with our beloved president of Earth, Kim Jong Un.

A generous helping of first degree burns across the chest and stomach have taught me to stop cooking eggs without a shirt on. On the bright side, the blisters are coming along quite nicely.

Your just lucky you don't eat bacon!

Ahaha I see what you did there :P Never fear, as the canola oil I was cooking in did enough damage to make up for the lack of bacon grease. :)

I don't want a free coffee. I don't want my car washed. I don't want a free meal from a small selection of a crappy restaurant menu. I don't even want a pat on the back. All I want is a person in a high office who doesn't see a slash to my educational benefits as the first and most reasonable measure whenever they hear the words, 'budget cut'. Too much to ask?

So I'm in a Crowne Plaza cooking scrambled eggs in a short tumbler glass inside my microwave. I'm eating out of the glass with an empty creamer packet. I may be the worst hotel guest in human history.

Trafford Publishing, life insurance and laxatives. Those are the ads I see over there on the right. I don't know whether to feel offended or terrified. Maybe I'll try both?

THINK OF YOUR FAMILY'S FINANCIAL SECURITY!!! PUBLISH YOURSELF NOW BEFORE YOU'RE KILLED BY YOUR OWN CONSTIPATION!!!

I vow to click that review link over and over again and review the first short story I see that doesn't have a personal pronoun in its opening sentence!

This morning, a dream of a Californian at the bottom of a canyon trying to sell me a workout program that combined ski masks, jet skis, and public nudity came to a grinding halt when the Fedex guy buzzed my apartment. Time to stop eating spicy food before I go to bed. Or eat more.

I woke up this morning and found that I had been gifted an upgraded membership for the next three months. I'm not sure what I did exactly with my two days of being here, and I'm not sure if the anonymous gifter will ever see this, but thank you! There was never a better encouragement to keep your nose to the grindstone than a random act of kindness. :)

There is a lot of very kind, generous people on here. I was gifted an upgrade membership when I first joined to (in Nov). Hope you enjoy WDC. Feel free to shout if you need anything or if you just want to say hi.
