A world where people have the ability to respawn right after they die, but... | I got the call about 8 o'clock while sitting on the couch half concentrating on some important news article on the TV. The phone rang and I grabbed it quickly since it was something to do.
There was a lot of fast talking, some distressed notions and little bits of worry stuck in for good measure but overall the under... | 0 | 0 | 2 | 23,581 |

A world where people have the ability to respawn right after they die, but... | My first death was when I was eight. I was skiing with my family when my ski snapped in half, sending me tumbling head first down the steep and snow-covered mountain face. Then I woke up in my bed at the lodge, 24 hours had passed, but apart from that I was completely healthy and it was as if nothing had happened. Many... | 1 | 0 | 2 | 23,583 |
A world where people have the ability to respawn right after they die, but... | Death! The rumor was electric. A true, permanent death. Could their cursed, unbearable existence truly be over? Bob needed to find out for sure. He pushed through the endless crowd, cramped shoulder-to-shoulder, as always. He spotted a water distribution station ahead and shoved his way in that direction.

[IP] the wrath of God | "Oh my God - Jake - Jesus Christ! Get inside."
Shailene Sallow had lived for thirty three years in the town of Harding, Texas. She'd borne two children - Jake and Samantha - and both were the bundles of joy and delight and pleasure one might expect. She'd divorced three times. In the Deep South, where people lingered ... | 3 | 0 | 5 | 23,585 |
[IP] the wrath of God | *Vater unser in Himmel*
The preacher cast his eyes to the heavens and saw the cloud forming over head. He knew the faithful would be there soon. They always flocked to the church when the yearly storms hit.
*geheiligt werde dein Name*
He took to the pulpit and opened his bible. Whether it be a divine blessing o... | 2 | 0 | 5 | 23,586 |
[WP] A veterinarian wakes up one day to find that he can talk to animals - but not humans. | "Wake up you silly human! I need to pee!"
Robbie's brain slowly processed someone talking to him. He then wondered who it was. He lived in a small house with his pet beagle. No girlfriend. Suddenly he realised nobody should be talking to him!
He sat bolt upright and his dog, Babe, looked at him, slightly alarmed. Rob... | 1 | 0 | 4 | 23,587 |
[WP] A citizen of an island city realizes that the land it was built on is actually the back of an enormous slumbering beast. It is waking up. | The Plinthians heard the warnings. Slumbering beasts began moving under the feet of mountain villages. On the mainland, a volcano now roamed around the desert, spewing lava and leaving a trail of smooth black rock in it's wake. Rumours of glaciers gleefully sliding across the tundra came from the mouths of refugees arr... | 3 | 0 | 11 | 23,588 |
[WP] A citizen of an island city realizes that the land it was built on is actually the back of an enormous slumbering beast. It is waking up. | The people were glad to see him go.
He left with a heavy heart, leaving behind family and friends.
One of the merchant's ships was gently swaying below his feet but he paid no attention to it; he was looking behind at his beloved city, the place where he was born and lived all his life, where he loved and hated, wh... | 3 | 0 | 11 | 23,589 |
[WP] A citizen of an island city realizes that the land it was built on is actually the back of an enormous slumbering beast. It is waking up. | I walked out to the very end of the island that day. It was a long walk to make when the irons around my ankles and wrists clanked and chafed with every step. They marked me as the lowest kind of slave: the wild slave. Every slave began their indenture wearing them. The good ones were able to get them removed. I wore t... | 3 | 0 | 11 | 23,590 |
[Wp] The President of the United States pranks the United Nations on April Fool's day and accidentally starts World War III | "No! Putin if you invade Ukraine I swear to God I will blow up every one of your cities."
With that President Obama slammed down the phone receiver and laughed.
"Oh God, I wish I could see his face right about now! April Fools, ya big ding dong!"
From that day onward, April 1st was no longer a day of jokes but a day... | 6 | 0 | 29 | 23,591 |
[Wp] The President of the United States pranks the United Nations on April Fool's day and accidentally starts World War III | April 1st.
President Obama sat down for lunch, as he normally did, in his normal fashion, with his normal sandwich with an abnormal feeling. Jealousy. He was the President! No one pranked him anymore since he overreacted about Presidential Dog doing his business on his desk, when it was really chocolate.
Then a si... | 6 | 0 | 29 | 23,592 |

[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop. | "Late again?"
"Yup."
She sat down next to the stranger and looked at her watch. Swearing under her breath, she pulled her sleeve back down and flipper her hood up and clutched her torso.
"Always late, always when I don't need them to be."
"Yup."
They sat in silence for a while, only the wind offered conversation ... | 14 | 0 | 20 | 23,594 |
[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop. | "Well, hi, there, partner! Have you heard about our Lord and Savior?"
I stared at the fellow, who was now looking at me expectantly. I silently cursed my unawareness of my surroundings. Unfortunately, waiting for the 6:40 generally induces in me just the sort of clockwork oblivion and general vacancy of face that make... | 7 | 0 | 20 | 23,595 |
[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop. | "Where you going?"
Jack continued looking at the newspaper in his lap. Not reading, just looking. No response came to the question and he casually lifted his gaze. No one else was there but him and some homeless man sitting at the bus stop at the edge of town.
"What was that?" Jack asked, vainly trying to act as if h... | 7 | 0 | 20 | 23,596 |

[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop. | Snow dances a silent dance in front of the bus stop. Three strangers, a woman standing and two men, one sitting, one standing, share the silent wait for the vehicle.
"Pretty cold, huh?" says the standing man.
"Hm? Excuse me?" asks the sitting man.
"I said it's pretty cold, huh?"
"I guess."
Silence again. The bus i... | 5 | 0 | 20 | 23,598 |
[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop. | “Have you ever been down to the zoo?”
Mr. Johnson glanced up from his newspaper, taking in the ruffled shirt, the dirty hands, and the patched pants, and edged sideways along the bench to put more space between him in the ragged man who had asked the question.
“I said: have you ever been down to the zoo?”
The man l... | 3 | 0 | 20 | 23,599 |
