[MODPOST] 60,000 Subscribers! The changes coming up! | Ryan, you guys are the best mods I've ever seen in a subreddit. Always looking for ways to improve the community, and pushing people along when they don't want to work (guilty as charged). Someday, I would like to buy you a beer.
Thanks for everything you do, and here's to a bigger, better subreddit! | 6 | 0 | 117 | 23,477 |

[MODPOST] 60,000 Subscribers! The changes coming up! | I've got a question about the hidden voting - has it also been modified so that comments don't get sorted by score anymore? Because if it hasn't, it really doesn't make any difference, since the comment with the highest score is still the top one. | 2 | 0 | 117 | 23,479 |

[WP] You know how WWIII is going to start, but there's a problem. | There's always an option C. It's the principle that's defined my life, the principle that drove me to eschew the traditional path and become a successful entrepreneur. I will not abandon it now. If catastrophe can happen whether or not I speak my mind, the beat path remaining to me is to control the catastrophe.

[WP] A Man Awakes To Find That His Hands And Feet Have Switched Positions | > This is my first attempt at /r/writingprompts. I didn't realise how long it would take to write something like this so I'm pretty buggered to re-write the parts that need fixing. Any and all criticism is welcome :)
Norris never liked the cold. It was always numbing and uncomfortable as the chilly wind would seep ... | 2 | 0 | 3 | 23,483 |
[CW] Noir Style - A dirty detective (protagonist) was recently saddled with an honest rookie for a partner and finally has to deal with him one way or another. | "Buddy, put it down."
He turns and the first thing he sees is the glint of steel. He stiffens, his eyes widen; he knows I'm serious now. I gesture with the gun; he puts the folder down.
"We're this close. We take this file back, bust this open, the criminals get exposed, the FBI has to act. We win." Buddy turns, hand... | 5 | 0 | 6 | 23,484 |
[CW] Noir Style - A dirty detective (protagonist) was recently saddled with an honest rookie for a partner and finally has to deal with him one way or another. | "You're a dirty bird, Bert. A dirty, dirty bird."
He was hurt. He had a right to be. He'd just found out his relationship was a sham. Roommates? Partners? Detectives? It was a lot to take in. Ernest was his name. Ernie to those who knew him best. Forty years they'd known each other. Forty years working all kinds of jo... | 4 | 0 | 6 | 23,485 |

[WP] Getting old is no fun. Your hair grays, you get forgetful, and you're starting to lose control of your superpowers. | The Tenor stared down at the wreckage of Mrs. McFarlane's prize terrier, Morning. One half of was still intact, teetering on its right two legs, it's remaining eye already frozen and glossy--the rest of the small dog had been shorn away by the force of his shout and was redistributed in a smear across the sidewalk and ... | 3 | 0 | 16 | 23,487 |

[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | The bullet exited the barrel without a sound. It was entirely surreal, it didn't feel to Jeff as if he'd really fired, he hadn't actually killed another human being... And yet, blood droplets were scattering from Adam's chest as he flailed, limply, into the side of the ISS.
In the end, getting the gun up here had been... | 3 | 0 | 16 | 23,489 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | Michael felt the metal bar slip away between his chunky fingers. He swung his arms wildly at it, trying desperately to grasp at the cursed thing as it drifted slowly away from him...
...as he drifted slowly away from it...
Michael's muscles relaxed...
He stilled his arms...
He never realized how little he felt. "Th... | 10 | 0 | 16 | 23,490 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | "They're at the historical site sir," said Zevra as she looked at the screen on her console. She adjusted the thrusters and the tiny ship moved enough to give her a moment of dizziness. She closed her eyes, reached into her flight suit pocket, briefly looked at her flight commander badge, and pulled out a small pill... | 2 | 0 | 16 | 23,491 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | Dale propelled him self towards Karen's muffled screams. He froze in the framed entrance to the kitchen area. Clark stood behind her, pinning her in place against the sink, pulling her head back by her golden hair and thrusting into her. Droplets of blood floated from her swollen face as she sobbed in pain. Clark didn'... | 1 | 0 | 16 | 23,492 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | "Hey, Sergei! How many times have I had to tell you to refill the coffee maker!"
Ever since we built the space elevator, we've finally been able to build rotating space stations that simulate gravity... and this means one all important thing - drip coffee. Glorious black heaven.
But goddammit, Sergei would drink the ... | 3 | 0 | 16 | 23,493 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | It was absolutely and unequivocally the deadliest battle in the history of mankind. You don't miss in space. You hit something else entirely. Worlds millions of light years away were utterly destroyed by "Pillars of God", mile long steel beams shot at high speeds, the "bullets" of space battles. Quintillions of Life fo... | 1 | 0 | 16 | 23,494 |
[WP] Write about the very first battle to occur in space as realistically as you can. | A common theme in those old sci-fi horror movies was that "in space, nobody can hear you scream." That couldn't be any farther from the truth. Everyone is linked by radio at all times. But when you scream, there aren't any other noises to block it out. There is utter silence, a tranquility unmatched on Earth, punctuate... | 1 | 0 | 16 | 23,495 |

[WP] A day in the life of a train station turnstile. | I've been getting groped by people since I was installed in 2003. Grand Central is a busy place and full of weirdos, business folks and hobos. I've been touched by them all. Today starts like every other. The morning rush, the noon rush, the evening rush. In fact, in this station the rush never really ends. It's just m... | 1 | 0 | 5 | 23,497 |
