An Open Letter to Doctor Who
Dear Doctor,
I know your show gets reviewed a lot, mostly by amateur writers in tedious sorts of ways, so I’m going to keep this brief. In fact, I bet only Americans review your show these days, as most British people grew up with it as a sort of “children’s show”, and therefore a review on their part would mostly be rehash (unless they’re comparing seasons or doctors). But your...

Review: Spaced
“The Title May Have Something To Do With Cannibis Use, or Just Tim’s Love of Scifi: Spaced.”
Oh holy thing in the sky. I just finished watching both series of the TV show Spaced staring Simon Pegg and Jessica Hynes. Wow. I mean just now. I mean just 30 seconds ago. And then I clicked on the Microsoft word icon and here we are now. It’s the kind of thing I just need to get right...
Review: Ctrl
“Could Have Used That Keyboard to Write This Review: Ctrl”
Ever heard of Ctrl before? Yeah, neither had I, until I clicked on the little thumbnail icon on hulu. THANKS HULU. THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND. But your ads suck.
Anyway, Ctrl is a super smart, funny and endearing little mini-series starring Tony Hale of Arrested Development. The plot revolves around Stewart, an office nerd...

Has anybody ever been kicked out of carousel mall?
My friend and I are planning a stunt, probably for around the summer, that could potentially get us kicked out of carousel mall. Has this ever happened to anybody? What happens when it does? Are there any legal consequences or do they just throw you out the door? What are the best conditions to not get kicked out in? And… we kind of need some people, so if anyone potentially wants in...

Confessions I
arthurrlewis:
Sometimes, I find myself wishing I could save other people from the random crap they have to deal with every day. I wish I was a hero sometimes. To a lot of people. I want to be a hero and then havegirls fawn over me.
When I was a little kid, all I ever wanted to be was a hero. I’d imagine up stories where I saved everybody from all sorts of horrors, and they would like me,...
The Shack and the Haze.
“Way down low where the sun don’t go, there’s a horror down there that words can’t show…” The baritone voice carried dead weight over the smoky yellow haze of the premoridial bayou. It hovered for a second, then sank, like a stone, or a body, into the murky slime. “Way down here where the stars know fear, there’s a horror with us from which the...

On sound cancelling ear buds:
Dear Skull Candy, I recently purchased a pair of your sound cancelling ear buds. And while they do seem to do their job, i.e, I can’t hear anything, I was just wondering if my ear canals are supposed to bleed after use. And are my ear drums supposed to feel violated like they do? I hope so, or I may not be using them right. The truth is, skull candy, I have to shove those things...
Excuse me while I diagnose myself with oniomania.
Or the obsessive compulsive disorder that drives the sufferer to compulsively buy items. It tends to be triggered by stress (or missing your family) and subjects tend to find comfort in material items. Yeah, I don’t really buy it either, but I do miss my family.
Do you ever look at the crowds in old movies and wonder if they’re dead...

And they might have been joking, but who cares.
Yesterday I hugged a handsome man.
And that’s another reason why I love college.
How to get my dog, Abbie, inside the house before...
Go to the garage door, open it, and yell “Abbie!” You may need to do this a couple of times, with varying degrees of amplification. Abbie will most likely appear outside of the garage.
Open the door widely and tell her to come inside. She will now sit down or walk away.
Go inside and get a dog biscuit. Go back outside and attempt to lure Abbie in using the dog biscuit. By this time...
Scientology
Scientology is a delightful young religion that is based around a quaint little sci-fi story that puts Star Trek to shame. The belief is that a bunch of aliens were put on earth and killed with volcanoes and hydrogen bombs by an evil over lord named Xenu about 75 billion years ago, AKA before the earth was actually formed. Therefore, supposedly, these aliens haunt people’s minds and explain...

Hey all you writers out there! →
Well… I’ve been putting up a lot of short stories lately. A lot, and they’re taking up space, and I’m not too sure people enjoy seeing them in their feeds, as they’re so flipping long. So this is what I’m doing- I set up another blog for me to put my stories up in, but I’d like to invite you guys to put up stuff you have written in there as well. Together,...
WHORE SQUAD (this isn't dirty by the way, just...
This and the last piece I posted were assignments for screenwriting. Sadly, the last one is way longer than 4 pages double spaced, which were the perameters for this assignment, so at 10:30 last night I realized that and wrote this. The prompt was “prostitution”. Enjoy.
Gerald Schmeltneck was a super genius, and he never got any in high school. And he never got any in...
