“I still don’t get it, dude.”
“Next time, dude, set your maximum bid higher.”
“Not, dude. I leave biddin’ for useless stuff on eBay to you. I’m talkin’ about this microfiction stuff.”
“You’re not gettin’ out the sandpaper again?”
“Only if I can use it to rub you the wrong way, cat. It’s like this. I’ve heard about a ‘hot story’, but I had no idea you had to stick a book in a microwave to get one.”
“Dude?”
“Yeah?”
“Extinguish that idea, or you’re fired! For your information, dude, the story’s supposed to be short. Not hot! So it’ll fit on your iPhone without burnin’ it up!”
“Or, like, burnin’ up my minutes?”
“Somethin’ like that.”
“So what’m I supposed to do?”
“Write somethin’ clever in less than 140 characters.”
“Is space a character?”
“Well, you’re a character, and the most obvious part of your character is the empty space where your head should be, so, yeah.”
“So what’m I supposed to write about? Besides you, that is, which ain’t gonna happen.”
“Well, there’s this chick Susan …”
“Where did you get a chick, dude??”
“Take a cold shower, dude. As I was sayin’, there’s this chick Susan, who posts a picture every week and asks folk to come up with a story for it. Like this one:
Wanna give it a try?”
“You first, dude.”
“Hokay …
No, Sam! I know you’re looking for a really powerful new look for the suit in Iron Man 3, but this ain’t it!
Whaddaya think of that?”
“I’ll let you have this one, dude. But just wait ’til next week …!”
Dudes, what would I have to offer you to get you to go play on the train tracks? Hmmm …?
What train tracks, Q? Not exactly plentiful here …
Well Thats the good old college try. Not bad if I do say so. 🙂
The Dudes were playing rugby, Thom? I didn’t think they had the energy to get out of their chairs …?
Boxy is the new sleek.
Like 1980s cars, Erik? Wait long enough, and what was in fashion will become fashionable again.
Excellent!! :o)
Thanks, Deborah.
Dude – loved it!
Dudette, thank you.
I am a huge sci-fi geek and I loved it! :O)
Marvel-ous, Diane. 😉
I think Sam should look elsewhere for ideas. Trains are not the Fastest mode of Transport out there. Welcome Dudes to Susan’s Microfiction.
They’re not even quite Super, Man. (“more powerful than a locomotive …”)
Hey Dude;
That was sic!
“Dude!”
“What?”
“Betcha I know what Peggy here wished Iron Man had said to War Machine.”
“What’s that?”
“‘Sic ’em!'”
Clever, dude! Er…dudes…
“Dude! She’s not gonna confuse us with OC, now is she?”
“You’re just jealous, dude. You already put dibs on the blonde, I’d suggest you work on your rescue plans and leave Lisa, here, alone.”
“I ain’t leavin’ her a loan, dude! Do I look like a bank to you?”
“A piggy bank, dude. An empty one.”
Hello Dudes! Love the humor…I will be back dudes.
Careful about encouraging these two, Tammy. You see what kind of trouble they almost got into over Lisa.
DUUUUDES!
Best intro, like, EVER!
Totally awesome.
“Wow, dude, she talkin’ to us?”
“No, dude, to your mother.”
“She’s talkin’ to an Intel chip?!?”
“Take the chip offa your shoulder and say ‘thank you’, dude.”
“Thank you, dude.”
