Write a story a word at a time!

[timmy kerman]

Based on the never-ending word-editing experiment.

Basically, the idea is similar to the never-ending word-editing experiment. The only difference being that you cannot, under any circumstances, remove a word. (Okay, well, the mods can, duh, but you can’t just remove a word for no reason.) Also, the re-use of characters, settings and themes is highly recommended and even desired. Every post must add at least one full word (Yes, this can be made up, but only one and it must sound whimsical. Non-whimsical made up words will be jimbled) and at maximum five words. New sentences and paragraphs can be created at will. Nothing that a child shouldn’t read, by the way. Violence is allowed, but please not too over the top.

In summary:

-You cannot remove other people’s words unless they are inappropriate.

-Violence, but not too much.

-Only whimsical made up words.

-Repetition of characters, settings, and themes is encouraged.

-1 to 5 words per post.

 

Remember, we are making a story, so make it seem like one too.

Enjoy, and me first!

removed errant underscore

stupid underscore on KSC keeps turning on ON ITS OWN!!!! I DONT WANT IT UNDERSCORED!

192503312025

K S C is intended as a 3 letter single entry as an abbreviation. However this possessed forum without my command KEEPS adding an underscore to it. I keep undoing it. I see it not in the editor then i submit and its there. I have no idea how or why, but i am infuriated already by something totally unrelated to the forums and this demonic underscore that will not go away is putting  me to the point i am going to yeet my phone off a cliff. Im done trying to be nice with this stupid edit. It is NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SPACED. Its FORCING ME INTO IT.

@Mr. Kerbin guess my irritation hit me harder than I thought. I still dislike FORCED underscores as it undermines my autonomy and removes my choice. That said:
