Sounds cool. You should've made a short-story about a deaf, dumb, and blind kid who leads a revolution through pinball, and made the class listen to the double-CD of Tommy by The Who.

[dark0ne]

this was the same teacher who let me bring in slayer to listen to angle of death, cause we were reading night. LOL

[Capt. Carl]

OK, i think ive got it, im going to write it about 2 police officers who get sent to bust a meth lab...but then what happens...hmmm..help me men!

[dark0ne]

Chapter 1- The Myth of Stoners, Television, and Burglary.

[Capt. Carl]

Ive decided to make my story about a nice little boy named jimmy who smokes a joint then goes and rapes his little sister and axes his parents in their sleep to then later commit suicide by jumping out the window.

[beachguy in thongs]

But, when he goes to axe his parents...he sees the face of his sister on both of their bodies... :what:

[dark0ne]

now capt. carl, is that the portrait of stoners that you want to paint. no how about changing the boy to a monkey and the joint to........ cocaine. there thats better. a family story about an ax weilding monkey all wacked out on the white man. :thumbsup:

[420ultimatesmokage]

You think these two are less conflicting than space-meth? I dunno...

check your newspaper for stories. particularly in the local section. Some good stories have been written from these kinds of ideas.
I read an article last week about a local shooting. It happened at a small community cookout. A drug deal gone awry. When cops arrived , one man was slumped over on the picnic table near the smoldering grill with a gunshot wound. He was barely breathing. The shooter was yelling at his gorlfriend. "See what you made me do? I just killed a man!" He said. He had a handgun tucked in his waistband. The cops told him to drop it...but he got inot that stance...hands out by his sides...the shifty eyes...he was ready to draw. He had nothing to live for now.

So, he iether draws, and the cops fire fifty round into him and the surrounding cars and buildings...

Or he chickens out and tosses the gun on the ground...and then they shoot him and beat him...

Or he takes the girl hostage, steals a police car...and they are both shot to death ten miles down the road as he crashes a roadblock...

Or, just make something up....

[mellow mood]

A scientist travels and go to antartica. there he finds a passage through another dimension.

he enters in it and absolutly nothing changes. he think finally it was nothing. go back to his home where everything seems to be the same except... that he see himself. yes this other dimension is the exact reproduction of our earth and now he is on this reproduction which includes himself living in this dimension too

so he cant do nothing. his second him is shocked. doesnt understand a thing. think he went mad, and commit suicide. than he mask all this so he can live normally with his wife.

so he go to finally see his wife, when he see that everything in this dimension was the same EXCEPT his "himself" wife

so hes fucked up. he commits suicide too, which makes a whole in the universe because of a life belonging to another dimension that dies in a different one. everything crashes and the universe implodes.

end of the story

You think these two are less conflicting than space-meth? I dunno... thats what i was trying to say LOL

[beachguy in thongs]

There's this guy, he takes over the world by playing guitar with his teeth, he dies, three years later, and 30 years later people are still saying he was a druggie.
