    Weird News Thread...

    I remember watching a classmate during a history exam hastily scribbling dates in years on his desk. Everyone watched him do it, the bell rang, and the class started. Every so often, someone would get up to "use the restroom" next door, and take a quick glance at his desk. ? "Weird News" are...

    Weird notes you have that have forgotten the context for.

    I goofed on the year. lol Oh well, it was still a shock. I wonder how he is these days. Hmm. I wouldn't mind dating a millionaire again.

    I think I can top that. A boyfriend I once had asked if I wanted to invest on the ground floor on a software company around 1986. I was like, "Nah, stocks are a complete waste of time," and we broke up a few months later. The company was Microsoft. :s_eek:???

    lol Exactly. *^^* I honestly think I can read my chicken-scratch until I get away from it for a few weeks or months, and look at it again and... I used to know some shorthand when I worked in the legal dept., but that knowledge has left me too. Geez, I'm not THAT old. I actually took typing...

    Weird notes you have that have forgotten the context for.

    I'm not sure, but I think my cursive writing is now completely gone. :cry: I just don't try anymore. It's a wild mix of print and italics these days. Someone remind me why cursive writing was so important to learn.

    (Elvish) "Stay where you are!" (Devani Dwarvish) "We come with no ill will." (Elvish) "What did he say?" (Elvish) "He said shoot to kill. Put an arrow in 'em." ?

    TRADITION!!!! :love: Let's throw in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "ZombieLand"; both movies spend a good deal giving specific information directly to the viewers.

    Another example of "why we shouldn't use AI for writing anything." If translation is such a chore, just find someone professional to translate for you. If you're looking for writing with feeling that is going to "sing" to your audience, you're going about it the wrong way. *^^* AI isn't going...

    Scammer on the loose aiming at new authors

    How about starting off a DM you get with this? "Oh my god, no no no, you can't be here! I'm working this site. Didn't you go to the convention? We had a meeting to designate who goes to where. You're unfortunately in my site now. Scram!" ? ?

    "Strange Isekai Stories" Debuts Next Month!

    Thank you. I'm just putting the finishing touches on the first story so we're set to go next week, I think. As I said, I'll probably start doing "reader's choice" segments, so I hope people will put forth a few wild and crazy notions. I've got a list of 15 so far. (I don't want to share, in case...
