On christmas eve, late -

I barely have enough concentration left to try to spell, not to speak of parsing meta.

Frankly - it looks good. Still, teasing the commentariat is not all >that< sporting.

Maybe the most brilliantly written story I've ever read on this site. Your elusive mojo must be getting close to this star system, right?

.

I do think, however, that you were remiss in not putting 'humor', 'satire' and 'lighten the fuck up' (hat tip: Vandemonium) tags on this. Yes, there will be those who read this and...

5++++++++++++/5!!! Hilarious. More like that.

Excellent!

Wrong category, belongs in humor

johntcookseyjohntcookseyover 2 years ago

Hilarious, and very clever. I think my smirk just broke into a full toothy grin, and my wife, eyebrows raised, is asking me ‘what, what?’.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

Funny story.

TriCoastalTriCoastalover 2 years ago

Brilliant, hilarious, it pretty much says it all. In case there's any doubt, I love it. I do have one complaint. You missed losing her at poker, fucked on a pool table in a sleazy biker bar, and paying off a gambling debt in Las Vegas. Oh well, the world's not perfect, and you could always post an alternative ending, or some dickhead could. Keep it up.

Well, that was fun!

I love everything you guys write, but this one is too much for one read. I will try again and then rate it

Excellent, bravo!!!

Points for being clever, but there was no "there" there.

Frank66Frank66over 2 years ago

This is NOT the kind of story to read first thing in the morning, when the coffee hasn't kicked in yet, and the brain is still full of cobwebs. The wittiness of it pretty much escaped me, and yet I'm sure it's there......

average rating but thanks for a different concept

mikeyjb51mikeyjb51over 2 years ago

very confusing, I guess I'm just old.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

Started off slowly, then got pretty funny. A bit similar to the musical "City of Angels", if it were NC-17 rated and didn't have any songs.

Not bad!

Great satire

Love it

northstanderrhinonorthstanderrhinoover 2 years ago

I am sure that there is supposed to be a point to this story, unfortunately it seems to have got lost in translation.

I appreciate that the author has tried to inject some humour into the story, but hasn't actually succeeded. Worth a try though.

iameaseliameaselover 2 years ago

One awesome page (very amusing btw absolutely loved it) laid out 99 percent of all stories here.

Yes ONE fucking page covered hundreds of stories.

I did enjoy this little Xmas fun.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

An anthalogy, but badly done. The stories were way too short and often abrupt for it.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

You must be high on too many BANNED drugs to come up with something like this chaos.

vhasstvhasstover 2 years ago

Liked it, even if it is all sorts of fucked up. Merry Christmas.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

Total nonsense but I loved it. Maybe I have a warped mind.

Heh, enjoyed that meta montage. Looks like a tough crowd out here, though.

OldBrummieOldBrummieover 2 years ago

Wow. I think you are going to get a lot of low scores for this.

On the other hand - I loved it. Something different to shake things up. But I have read Science Fictions stories from a young age and this type of approach is something I am used to. Reminded me a bit of Michael Moorcock's Jerry Cornelius stories from many years ago.

5* from me but I suspect those will be few and far between. Keep it up. we need different approaches on here and I salute your bravery.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

Awful, start to finish, with all your weak, failed attempts at cute interruptions and replayed timelines shit. Just crap.

Bob showing his range again. There’s some ability there.

Regguy69Regguy69over 2 years ago

Funny! Yes LW has a tun of repeat plot lines, but as long as there are subtle differences, they are still fun to read. Poking fun at everyone is fun too, even if it has been done before.

AnonymousAnonymousover 2 years ago

Had me laughing out loud at it. Full points

Really different, & funny.

nixroxnixroxover 2 years ago

0 star - not my kind of story - sorry. I got bored at about the fourth rendition.

tangledweedtangledweedover 2 years ago

This story is severely underscored, which is unsurprising, given that it doesn't follow the BTB formula and isn't written in a predictable, linear, manner. No doubt many LW readers can't recognize a parody, even one written in cum on their wife's panties when they came home early.

It would probably be received better in the Humor category, where at least they expect a story to try to be funny. I kind of like it here, though, because it captures LW so well.

Frank66Frank66over 2 years ago

Second time reading, am more awake, and I find it extremely creative. This time I'll give it a 5. (the heck was I thinking the first time?)

smmhomesmmhomeover 2 years ago

Making the author the protagonist is a clever twist, but … This seems written for LitE authors rather than LitE readers. This feels a bit like all the Hollywood movies about movie production (swimming with sharks, get shorty, etc.). I get the jokes… but they are written for fellow comedians, not the audience… wait, wait, I’ve got more…

Thanks for the contribution. I look forward to the next one.

Do we really need meta LW stories? That said, this one was clever enough to get 5 stars from me.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

What a hoot! Well done 5*

tennesseeredtennesseeredalmost 2 years ago

Nicely done bit of LW trope-disrupting fiction with some seriously hilarious moments so big kudos for that. It put me in mind of the musical "City of Angels" and its Stine/Stone, author/character duet, "You're Nothing Without Me". I'm still laughing about the kids running from the swimming pool in a snow storm and beating on the sliding glass door. The low score tells us a lot about LW readers, doesn't it? Great job!

ZippityDoDaDayZippityDoDaDayalmost 2 years ago

Worth it for the awesome one liners!!

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 2 years ago

How is this rated so low?

It's very, very clever, and fucking hilarious.

It has to be the crowd's collective IQ level. That's the only reasonable explanation.

ohioohioover 1 year ago

Very funny satire--sorry that some of the commenters didn't get it, or don't have sense of humor.

Thanks, ohio

A_BierceA_Bierceover 1 year ago

May be the funniest story every published on Literotics (I haven't read them all, so I have to hedge the superlative). Perhaps my favorite line: "I stepped back and caught her scratching her crotch. 'What?' she asked." Of course it needs the context of the previous lines, so I had to hedge with "perhaps." Does that make this whole comment a hedge fund? The story could also serve as an impromptu IQ test; the failures are anonnys (well, most of them, but not all). Oh no, I did it again! Sorry.

About the best parody of LW ever .... certainly the cleverest. But damn, the author forgot to add a set of twins to the tale.

"Yeah? What are you going to do about it?"

"I'll dox you in the comments."

=====> Priceless. Was indeed superlative and meta until the cuck ending. Still.amazingly creative. 5 stars for the unique parody.

Very good but you missed out him changing the oil in his car. Every LV story in the US should have this !!!!

A_BierceA_Bierce2 months ago

Upon further reading: You blasted the fourth wall plum (plumb?) through the troposphere into the stratosphere and still climbing. If it reaches escape velocity, it may go into orbit and we'll never be rid of it (just like anonys and those whose sensayuma was shot off in some war or otherwise lost).

The score baffles me. This is terrific.

I write long fiction. When I run into a block, I pound out short erotica to get the mojo flowing.
