I know karma means (or think it means) that if you do something good you'll get something good in return and vice versa...I was just wondering it feels like I've been having a really bad 3 weeks, nothing good at all about it- if my bad times should be done with soon and then happiness can start again? Or are there no 'laws' that say if you've had bad times, you're sure to get good times?

It was said recently that some people read books not because they're interested in them, but because they wish to give a certain impression about themselves. So, which book would you like to be seen reading in public?

this is comepletely open, there is no rules here
just put the name of the character down somewhere on the pic

The Unauthorized Biography of a Fruit Fly



This story was inspired by a smear of green I cleaned off my wall.



All life has a beginning.



The fruit fly has a rapid life cycle. He lives, he craps, he dies.



This is the story of Chester.



Chester had a very fortunate beginning. If he were Human it would be quite ill-fated, but, being a fruit fly…he was very lucky.

Chester was an egg at first, and he was an egg inside of a dumpster on a busy city street. (The dumpster was outside of a Long John Silver’s restaurant, but that has nothing to do with this story)



Infancy of a fly



Chester quickly changed from egg to larva inside of this fortifying trash bin and was very healthy. He had many other larvas around him, and all were growing and maturing nicely…when several got taken away.



Thoughtless travel



Chester wasn’t attached to the outside of the metal bin, so he got picked up and put inside of the garbage truck…where his adventure truly begins.



??a toddler fly…maybe



Chester morphed into his next stage of life….he was inside of a cocoon during this fateful trip. Unbeknownst to him, his Hefty bag fell of the truck,

A stray dog chewed into his bag,

And he was reattached onto matted, bloody hair on the back of a dog,

Ran through a suburban neighborhood (on the back of the dog)

And eventually scratched off, and thrown…….



The fly as a teenager….



Lucky Chester landed just as he was becoming a young fruit fly, took wing and flew. He flew into a garage door, up some steps and found a table to swarm around and feed off of. (Didn’t I tell you he was a lucky fly?)

At the table there were 3 kids eating breakfast.

They were eating waffles and syrup, which Chester found the sweet syrup sticky and delicious.

He found dirty diapers in a trash can, very delicious indeed, and he realized he was growing into an adult fly very quickly.



The anxieties of being an adult fruit fly



Te heavy breakfast and lunch were making Chester feel fat and lazy.

Seeing a bright light shining trough a window, Chester flew over to inspect the view, and maybe take a little break.



RIP Chester



That is when it happened…He was squished with a newspaper.

And that was Chester’s unfortunate ending…I cleaned his remains off my wall.

Most of us are morally ambiguous. We don't vary to far from the center.

But for those few individuals who are EXTREMELY Evil or Good....do you think they are capable of acts that would be the polar opposite of thier normal behavior????

The best I could come up with is 'Everything is sometimes true.' Let me know how my statement holds up to the test or if you have a better one.

Pls dont give facts.. (i.e. A dog is an animal)

Hi guys - I need your help.

Can you give me a title of a story - first thing that pops into your head (not one that has already been written or published though).

Just make something up spur of the moment for me - will accept the sublime through to the ridiculous.

Cheers
