Alright, I'm just going say what everyone is thinking. This week royally sucked! So how about we make a little light of it and you all think about something that used to scare you as a kid but you now know is silly and have a laugh about it? You can even post it and we'll have a laugh at with you.

Anything to get those damn images out of my head.

I used to be scared of my grandfather's fishing shed when I was a kid, but only because he told me trolls lived in it to keep me from wandering in there and wrecking his fishing stuff.

Pretty effective method, I guess, since I never went within ten feet of that shed.

[not_a_dreck]

Shed trolls. Good one gramps.

Really? Never ever!? Didn't even want to take a peak just to see a live troll up close? Could of given your granddad a chance to make troll noises outside the shed and have a laugh.

[chairisinpark]

He was a lot sneakier than I realized, when I was five.

Nope. Not once. Trolls eat children...or so I was told, anyway.

[not_a_dreck]

He's probably still got a trick or two up those sleeves. I'd watch my back.

Ah, what a shame, it could of made for a fantastic childhood story if you had!

[...TWITCH.]

What the hell are you doing, dreck?

[not_a_dreck]

Just making some conversation! Care to pull that stick out your arse and share a story with the rest of us?

[not_the_dreck]

No.

Stop wasting journal space, idiot.

[not_a_dreck]

It's my journal space and I'll take up as much of it as I want. Stop filling it up with your nagging negativity, Aidan!

My father had my brother and I convinced for years that his office was haunted. Aha, we actually camped out in there one night, hoping to see it... We both fell asleep before the ghost ever showed itself, unfortunately~

[not_a_dreck]

Aha, that's a shame it wasn't really haunted. A ghost in the office would of been kinda cool.

Did your dad at least give a decent origins story for his office mate?

[amiably]

It would have been interesting~ Though I certainly did not think so at the time.

Ah, he said it was a distant ancestor of ours... The manse is quite old, so it was a believable tale.

[not_a_dreck]

Oh I don't know, I think you found it a little interesting even then. After all, you were curious enough to camp out there.

[Totally not going to share anything, but she will laugh at you, gullible boy]

[not_a_dreck]

[Come on kid, share your childhood horror story of the Dist monster in your closet that stole your piggy bank!]

[greedy_duchess]

[HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT TH- that never happened I don't know what you are talking about]

So, if I managed to fill up the bathrooms with actual pirahnas...

[not_a_dreck]

...You'd probably be gobbled up in a minute pipsqueak!
