Whack-a-Mole! LOL

[halfshellvenus]

Now you can see where it leads, once you've exposed someone not-very-discerning to what it's all about. :O

>>I know what you're thinking: "Wait, what if that thing is my toe?"<<

*snerk* this is great. well, except for the poor mole....

[halfshellvenus]

Haha--you can tell he never even really listens to anyone. He just goes, "La-la-la-la... Hey, the time to the next Blam! is what now?"

I wasn't expecting this to be quite so literal when I first embarked on the reading journey. It just kinda snuck up on me until I was like "Ooohhhhh."

[halfshellvenus]

:D Heh-heh. The painfully literal approach to a prompt like this is one I really enjoy. During some of my crackiest periods (as in, most of S10), that is often the version of the story I actually want to write. ;)

Glad you enjoyed it! :D

And I enjoy those wacky flights of fantasy, as well.

[halfshellvenus]

They're fun to write, and if I really hate the prompt (not the case here), that is the obstinate place my brain seems to go.

Or sometimes it's because who WOULDN'T want to write about a runaway hammer, or thuglike trolley cars? ;)

Okay then, you furry freak, you want to tango? Let's do it. I'll just slide up here through the grass and sneak around from behind and… Oh yeah, I've got you now buddy, you bucktoothed bean-headed little mutant.

I laughed out loud. XD

[halfshellvenus]

YAY! Glad to hear it. \o/

[sunouttomorrow]

I love the humor you write with. This was great!

[halfshellvenus]

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
