This Thread Shall Live!

I heard there was candy in this thread, so I had to come back.

How you folks doin', eh?

if there's one thing I can't stand, it's a flinchy thread.

yeah flinchy threads are no fun

Just hold still.... This will only take a minute.

Stop torturing the thread!

Have you no mercy?

This thread was completely dead. Who's responsible for reani,sting it?

There was a fugitive, fence-sitting monkey who flew in and poked it.

"reani,sting" is a particularly choice one.

I liked it. It was supposed to be "reanimating" but I was on my iPad. I can't type on that thing to save my life.

What I find really bizarre is that everyone understood what I was saying anyhow. You're all very strange people.

There's a story in this. Somewhere. I'm sure of it. Except it's fantasy, and homey don't do no fantasy.

You know, a Lovecraftian horror writer could work with it, but sadly, I ain't that kind of horror writer.

You called them into present time, though, the reani,sting, with your fortuitous typo. If and when they ,swarm, they won't really care what kind of writer you are.

Best lay low for a while.

If only I didn't hate glottal stops so much.

*sigh*

You know, this is the second thing I've done today that sets up a story. Maybe I should work on one of them.

glottal stops are awful.

What was the other thing?

Heh. I'm 150 words into a new story about it. Check the hounds thread. I made a flippant comment in there and then thought--well, why not?

Not sure where it will go or if it will work, but it's fun playing with.

Cool.
