[WP] You're sitting in your kitchen eating breakfast when a man in a lab coat walks in and says, "The experiment is over. Thank you for your time."
It would have to be a Thursday. Amanda always felt off on Thursdays. It was a Thursday morning when the man in the lab coat had walked into her kitchen, holding a clipboard and looking very young. Amanda thought that he looked a little like Clint Eastwood from Revenge of the Creature. It was a sight no one should have...
"The experiment is over. Thank you for your time" 'Pardon?' "The exp-" 'I heard that. I'm wondering what you mean.' "Ah, sorry. For the last ten years, you have been helping the British Government and Apple by allowing us to control every aspect of your day to day. Are those scones?" 'H-help yourself. So when I lo...

"The experiment is over. Thank you for your time." I look up my bagel halfway to my open mouth and blink. "Fred?" I ask, recognizing my neighbor. "The experiment is over. The human-pumpkin mutation worked but produced no significant advancement for pumpkin-kind" Fred says. I put down my bagel and blink confused. He ...

“The experiment is over thank you for your time.” Looking up from my hash browns, my eyes met a man that was as old as time. He had face wrinkles so defined it was like reading a topographical map, hair that barely clung to the rim of his head, and a paper thin white lab coat that cloaked the rest of his body, he smil...
"The experiment is over. Thank you for your time." "Do you have to say it with such finality?" I glanced up from my breakfast as Herald poured himself a cup of steaming black coffee. "What do you say then?" "It's not what you say, it's how you say it. You sound as if you're serving a death sentence." "I *am*. You...

Not wanting to stand out in any way, Bob decide that this morning he would eat a bowl of the cereal that was on display the day before at the super market. It was a mad rush, everyone seemed to want it, and Bob didn't want to be left out. "It doesn't look that appealing," Bob thought to himself as he reached for a car...

I could still hear the grease sizzling on my crispy, protein packed ripples of mouth watering breakfast bliss. Bacon, of course. Snugged comfortably in between two farm-fresh scrambled eggs and a flat of golden hash browns the size of my palm. I surveyed the feast and the jowls of my cheeks slowly filled with saliva...

######[](#dropcap) "Oh! Well, thank you." I pause. "I'm sorry, what?" "I said, the experiment is over-" "What experiment?" He looked as shocked as I felt.

"Give her 5 minutes before you go up" he says as he walks out through the front door, "You may not recognise her from the woman she was when you awoke this morning". I break down in tears, it's been 21 years and i had never been so close to anyone in my life, but somehow we'd become one over those years, a unit that t...

So there I was, sitting at the breakfast table in my boxers with my Lucky Charms and filthy bong, when this scientist dude in a lab coat walks right in to my kitchen. "The experiment is over.

I had poached eggs, the day the world ended. Now all I have is a blanket and vine-wrapped broken highway in front of me that seems to go on forever. (the highway, not the blanket.) But it started with poached eggs and a figure in a lab coat. It walked into my kitchen, stopped right by Amy's side, looking right at m...

The fishing village was quiet, and a single elder walked out to meet us. "I'm sorry," he said, "who are you folks?" The worst part is always the poli...
[WP] No matter how hard people try they can never write stories or sing songs about your heroic deeds. You are the unsung hero.
Once there was a hero named... well, you know, I don't remember that he had a name. Let's just call him Fred. So Frank, I mean, Fred--Fred goes off to the Twinkling Forest... or was it the Winkling Forest? That can't be right. In any case, I don't think it was a forest after all. I think it was a mountain. The Finkling...
If I write about my deeds, I become a sung hero, losing the one trait that makes me special. I could tell of my tales of triumph, of the teetering tribulations that attest to my glory... But that makes me just another legend. What's special about another Ajax, another Achilles...? What I revel is not whatever I'm spok...

The Dragon Slayer comes to our village tonight! Beasts and monsters all hi-i-ide in fright! The True Hero and his cape so orange! Is coming to... You know what? Forget it.

Assuming he can't resign until everyone hates him because he doesn't want to look like an ass.

[WP] A President is elected, but immediately realizes he made a huge mistake. He goes off making the worst possible decisions for the country to try and get people to hate him so he can resign. Unfortunately, everything goes horribly right.
It is the year 8200, humanity has eradicated all of it's faults, diseases are cured in an instant, peace reigns across the galaxy, and death is but a faint memory. All thanks to one man, President Marks. Thanks to his leadership, humanity has entered a golden age, and with it, total control over the entire Milky Way. N...

"...Mr. President?" the man in glasses said. *Fuck.* he thought, staring at the desk where so many great men sat before him. *The first fucking day?* He flicked the handle of his desk childishly, watching the brass fall back into position. "Mr. President..." The man in glasses was getting impatient. "I'm the fucking...

Day 1-"This sucks" I thought to myself. "The carpet is horrible in the oval office! I want out." **"We need six new Supreme Court Justices."** *President adds Six New Justices, New Levels of Fairness reached* Day 38- "What? That's a Terrible Idea! How did it work?" **"Drill for Oil in Manhattan"** *President orders ...

I looked over the bow of the ship, second guessing my decision of being on board for the season. The cold, salty sea spray stung my face, amplified by the chilly arctic air. I pulled the fur lined hood of my coat closer, attempting to dampen the assault of the elements against every inch of exposed skin, to no avail. I...
The cloaked man dropped his business card in my hand and disappeared before I could even thank him. I had to admit I hadn't expected to get the call before I was even out of high school. I hadn't done much to deserve it yet, a couple mean facebook statuses. Maybe with my pedigree that was all I needed. Either that, or ...
[WP] Write a short story in which the last paragraph is identical to the first.
*Being backed into a corner often makes an animal do terrible things -- ghastly things. And when you think about it, man is really nothing more than an animal. Once he feels threatened, once his way of life is interrupted, it takes only one small step to send him over the edge - and into the abyss.* *Snap.* _________...
She was a statue. A stone cold, icy hearted being that stood with an overbearing arrogance and yet a mesmorizing elegance. A demon, with a stare so hot it could burn into your skin, and heat up your soul. She was Satan's spawn, but also Gods perfect creation, a contradiction to reality itself. She was my greatest frien...
[WP] Last night, your spouse's ghost, lost and confused, begged you to solve their murder, so they can move on. The problem is... you're the killer.
**Day Four** "How's the hunt going? Did you find my killer yet?" "Nope. I was, um, tracking leads all day. Everything kept coming up empty. Sorry." "That's ok. There's always tomorrow." **Day Twelve** "Final Fantasy X? You've even beaten this one before. Twice! I was there! What the hell, man?" "First of all, thi...
I sigh rolling over while simultaneously reaching out for you coming fully awake when I realize you are not there. I listen for any bathroom noises when hearing nothing I slip out of bed puzzled. It's all the way downstairs through the garage and into the yard before I find you. Silhouetted by moonlight looking at me s...

After some time off, Mike had returned to work. His co-workers were understanding of his situation and despite his objections did most of his work for him. After an afternoon of checking emails and Facebook he felt annoyed, but relieved things were returning to normal. Mike walked over to the fridge, grabbed a beer an...

North Korea has an alliance with China and sits on a ton of artillery.
[WP] The US congress declared war with North Korea one hour ago, tell the story from the perspective of a South Korean stationed at the DMZ
I'll take a stab. Keep in mind I have never been to South Korea and my knowledge of South Korean culture is mostly limited to the many great films that have come out of South Korea. ---------------------------------- Kyung-min Nan stood in position at the DMZ. It had been just over an hour since the United States ha...
One second ago my friend yelled at me that the armistice agreement was just dissolved by the United States. Now I am on a cloud sitting in front of a big desk, behind that desk is an old man with the name tag Saint Peter. He looks at me and says you are the first of many welcome to heaven. To his right I see a glorious...

The lamps are going out all over Asia, we shall not see them lit again in our life-time. Here, within sight of the DMZ, I look out into the dark that is the North as a river of fire and steel arcs over my head before gravity pulls it inexorably down into the homes and industries of ten million people. During the firs...

An exasperated expletive leapt from Preston's sleep fuzzed mouth, momentarily cutting through the dulcet oohs, aahhhs, and pleas of "Is it too late now to say sorry" blasting out of a phone drunkenly deposited beneath the bed last night. Aimlessly groping for the device it dawned on Preston that he was late for his wor...
[WP] During your morning bus ride, the person next to you dies.
Two scoops into my cup of cornflakes and I taste blood. I don't know where it's coming from but I read somewhere that the iron is good for you. It goes down easy as I swallow. "Mind passing me a tissue?" A voice asks. I acknowledge it with a shake of my head. They only gave me one when I made the purchase, I'll be ...

[WP] During your morning bus ride, the person next to you dies.
I was so sick of riding of the bus, but I couldn't afford a car. There was always some kind of weirdo sitting next to you. That day was no different. A pale, sickly looking man fell asleep in the seat next to me. At least he wasn't lying against my shoulder or anything. It must have been some kind of record. The ...

She always told me to call her Dorie, just Dorie. Sweetest old lady anyone ever met—she’d ask me about my little son Jake every day and if I was seeing any new “young numbers” after my divorce last year. I never had a grandma and formed a bond with her everyone else who rode the 7:15AM Red Line was jealous of. Or maybe...
