Earbuds: Nasty Little Fuckers
For Paul and John's 47-Words Short Story Unofficial Challenge.
Mother always said, If you don't put things away, they'll grow legs and wander off!
She didn't tell me they'd listen to my conversations first, then report to the government.
Thought it was a spider! Nearly squashed it with my shoe!
Might've been better if I had.

Thou Shalt Not Set Fire to a Nunnery
"You're going to have to help me move the body." Julie stood in the doorway to my room, which was a cell really, and she was as close to breathless as I'd ever seen her. She looked dashing in the moonlight, and lit up with the glow of adventure.

Simpsons Review: "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show"
Happy April Fools' Day, all! It's been a while since I've written a review of a Simpsons episode, and with today being the aforementioned holiday, I just have to talk about this episode. It's a landmark episode, in more ways than one, so let's get to it.

Another note: based on a true story! Someone was looking for a lost earbud recently, and we were talking about how the loss of wired earphones and the universal jack to plug them in to devices would eventually be pinpointed as the start of civilisation's inevitable downfall. This story sprouted in my brain directly afterwards.
Oooo another strong entry…glad to see you hop in!
