You made me look up sporadic fatal insomnia and you made me sad :(
ReplyDeleteThe laser without instructions sounds like a potential comedy.

Pretty horrific, isn't it?
DeleteDefinitely.
I really like the Ace one, for some reason. That was a dictionary entry? How weird...
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about sporadic fatal insomnia, but now that I read the other comment I'm scared to click on the link.
The powers based off paradoxes sounds pretty cool. Maybe you could put it into your X-Men-esque one, since you were trying to think up a way to make it more original?
Yes. I think it would actually be quite fun to have a job writing all of the example sentences for a dictionary. There are some silly ones out there.
DeleteHaha, well, it's pretty much what it sounds like...
Yeah... I don't know. That story didn't have much planned for it, so it may not be worth it. We'll see if I can find a good premise/plot, for either.
