I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

His piercing blue eyes penetrated the new mooned night.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Hee. Take that Untoasted Crumpet Girl.

Somebody's new moon pierced by blue eyes begs to differ...

pftpftpftph.

Where's your pointless repetition? Where are all the staccato individual words chopped out of perfectly good sentences? Where's your grotesquely overdone use of adverbs, missy?

Huh? Huh?

(although, I actually think my "night" drabble is worse than my "porn" drabble.)

Hey, I have more practice trying to make my bad writing good than bad writing left whimpering on its own.

I tried the non-linear over metaphored angle meself.

Although, I do bow to the flowery badness that is your Night drabble, in all candor.

Thank you! Doesn't it suck?

Man, bad writing on purpose? Hard.

Sucks like a sucking thing.

Really hard to keep it bad and brief, too. I had some really bad metaphors in there and some more runons, but they made it longer than 100 words.

Discipline is HARD.

Hmmmm.

Having done two overdones, maybe I should try a Hemingway chop-up?

Third one.

Bad Hemingway

The room was dark. Cold. No lightbulb in the fixture. Some asshole took it away. Left me in the dark.

I walked forward. I had to - just do it. Left foot first. Right foot. Left. Right. Left. I walked.

My right foot met something on the floor. Squishy. Soft. It wobbled like a cheap special effect. I felt it, shivering, quivering, like monster guts in a B movie.

No light. I couldn't see. I cursed: damn darkness. My words echoed back at me like vindaloo cooked with rancid ghee.

But the squishy thing on the floor made no reply.
