Edema Rue she/her Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) On 11/18/2022 at 11:38 AM, Mr. Misting said: Mr. Misting paused, this was quite odd. He was normally threatened with death on Tuesdays. "Would you accept this empty Snickers wrapper as payment?" Now that the sandwich has been stolen, I sense something…improper grammar! I immediately begin lecturing Mr. Misting. “You need a semicolon after paused. You see, these are both independent clauses, so you need a conjunction, a semicolon, or a period after paused. If you use a conjunction, I would use as, or perhaps for. See as follows: ‘Mr. Misting paused, as/for this was quite odd.’ Also, the use of the word quite doesn’t quite convey what you want it to. While using less common words may seem better, a word like very actually works better in this scenario. If you have other questions, comments, concerns, or emotional outbursts, please ask.” And so I leave a confused but penitent Mr. Misting to think about his choices while I resume my search for a sandwich.

Mr. Misting purchased a dictionary; and began reading to the issues upon which had been highlighted. Mr. Misting goes to proceeds to cracking his knuckles. "You have one of them good points, I'll be admitting; but you have underestimating my tier in butchery in the English dialect. He was quite very varying of the mad. He as in I because I am obviously he, as he is Mr. Misting and Mr. Misting is simply I or me. Spontaneous perambulating rubber duck; blatant misuse of semicolons; something that does n't quite convey what I (He (Mr. Misting)) would be wanting it I want it too. "Emotional outburst!? and I am in no form of penitent!" Satisfied; Mr. Misting, walked away from the massacring of grammar and language that was this trash-fire of stanza. He then hurled the dictionary at Aes's head. Edited November 19, 2022 by Mr. Misting 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AltonicKeys he/him Posted November 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 I refuse to read the wall of text above. Refusing to pay attention to the prior events, I do a special dance while singing a special song. The sandwich disappears from wherever it was. In a flash of blinding darkness, it instead materializes in front of me. I reach towards the floating food item. Before I can touch it though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 I stab him with my poisonous ankle barbs. I grab the floating food item, it turns into my sandwich, and I start flying at faster than running speeds, but not fast enough to be tripped by anything. Read the wall of text!! It is extremely vital to the forum. Absolutely. I would never lie to you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edema Rue she/her Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Unfortunately, you were going too slow; your head was moving faster than your feet and you trip and tumble head over heels through the cosmere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 But I keep the sandwich in it's very clever hiding spot and it doesn't fall out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequence she/they Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Good for me and bad for you, I have been hiding in said sandwich hiding spot, because I am just that clever. I grab the sandwich and stuff it in a sack, using my Rick and Morty teleporter to go to another dimension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 I feel like I would have tasted you. You must be lying. I check with my tongue, and the sandwich is still there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wandering Wizard he/him Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 My cat appears and you all come and pet her, and I take the sandwich from Sequence, giving her the cat as I hightail away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 only I am capable of creating sawdust decoys. I bring my little puppy and as she bounds around trying to greet and distract you all, i take the sandwich and teleport the puppy home, hiding the sandwich in a new place this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Anticipating this, I already bought the deed to A New Place. I claim the sandwich and evict ImportantQuestions from A New Place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AltonicKeys he/him Posted November 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Love how we have two separate story lines going on The sand witches create sand sandwiches. But which witch made which sandwich? Sand, which is confusing, sends ImportantQuestions surrendering. The sand, which made sandwiches, is sent to the sandwich's hiding place, which was revealed. Sandwich. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Never surrender (except when too much sand was said). "That was not too much sand! THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH SAND!!!!!!" My intense crazyness for sand brings the original sandwich safely to a place where it is promptly relocated into {Redacted}. Edited November 20, 2022 by ImportantQuestions I accidentally put a capital C in instead of lowercase. Oops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltonicKeys he/him Posted November 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Pondering the meaning of Reda Cted, I then do my special mating dance. The sandwich is attracted to me, and floats towards me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Are you a sandwich? I follow and prepare to eat @AltonicKeys for he must be a sandwich to do a mating dance and attract another sandwich.

NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 However, I point out the flaws in Altonic's dance. The sandwich, realizing this, flies straight into my hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 I eat Altonic because he is obviously a sandwich in disguise and then do a summoning ritual perfectly so the sandwich teleports into my hand without any risk of it's destination being changed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 However, platypuses don't have hands! The summoning circle fails due to this paradox, leaving me with the sandwich. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Platypus Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 But my human disguise does. You simply thought it failed. The sandwich evaporates and reforms in my human disguise's hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 I start a philosophical argument about weather a disguise is part of the wearer. For my case, I bring in Shallan. While you're distracted by listening to Shallan's argument, I steal the sandwich and run off with it with no one the wiser. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
