Damn, that completely ruins my next story project. A clever LW parody, a good laugh and 5 stars.
I felt like I was at the carnival watching a strong guy using the sledgehammer. "Step up, folks!" The barker yells. "See if you can ring the bell!" Well, they need to tighten the screws again after you made that bell vibrate so much.

Even in satire, you made it clear (using the mousy but still formidable barrister) that you were building your argument to a memorable close. It did not disappoint. Dang those writers! "Clang, clang, clang!" goes the bell!
Do unwritten rules take precedence over unspoken rules? If so, shouldn't that go without saying?
Funny! Finally a parody that deals with the privity of contract issue you see in so many LW stories.
Hilarious. How do you come up with all this nonsense?
It's good nonsense though. 5*.
Yay!! Another stroll along the funny bone from HDK. Splendid! All the stars, Randi.
A sure fire winner that whilst being funny, solves some age old problems that affect modern society. 5*.
Effective, HDK scores again! You juggle a lot of LW tropes here. Thank you for posting it.
"Who the hell ever dreamed this bullshit up? … This is not the way the world works." - Exactly! Although I suspect your elucidation will fall on mostly deaf ears. Still, I got a good chuckle from it. Thanks very much.
5* excellent trope treatment. Although you did make me break a personal rule not to read a story further once a character's special forces background is referenced!
LOL 10 big blazing stars. I am giggling so hard that I can't see. ha ha ha What a fun read! Thanks, Buster2U
This is blatant anti-tropism. How dare you sir! Harry invasion needs to be on that panel
What happened to you and your writing? You used to be one of the top writers with Blackrandi and JPB. I think your account has been hacked
Woo woo woo woo! You got it right, especially the legal theory involving third parties. You forgot that each district would have a neighborhood called Cliche for certain writers. Mostly these would be disreputable neighborhoods except in the district of Justice where it would highly admired.
Hilarious!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great tweek of a bunch of LW writers and readers noses!!!!!
Love it 5⭐'s
Thanks for writing
PS for those that don't get the story, it is a satire of many a LW tale and the fantasy outcomes for men with "Cheating" wives
You forgot the LW ordinance that requires all cheated on husbands to find a smarter, prettier, and bigger titted replacement wife before the halfway point of any story!
Thank you for that wonderful commentary on much of the LW universe. Wait. What? That was a story, not a commentary? You mean I should actually read this? 5 stars!
Nice bit of satire. Certainly an original offering, and anything original on this site deserves kudos.
Outstanding. I'll admit I share the blame, reading the same story over and over again with slightly different details and character names. It's still fun getting called out for it in entertaining fashion.
Are you trying to say that LW world isn't real? Thanks for reminding this audience what is real.
A nice poke at all the LW writers who keep insisting on churning out stories in which cheated-on husbands receive absurd monetary awards and/or settlements that have no legal basis in the real world.
Great story John; I see what you did; you tried the same thing as I did in Troglodytes but were much more subtle; I loved it, but I see that you didn't get any higher scores that I did from the Troglodytes; bummer.
Needless to say, 5* from me.
Meh! Not nearly as funny or clever as I’m used to from HDK. Besides, Duh! The real world sucks far too often. People come to Lit for escape, fantasy and justice. Sadly the later is severely lacking in today’s society, hence why most writers are injecting fantasy into to their description of court cases instead of the horrendous corruption that is reality. We haven’t had a justice system for a long time ( if we ever did). We have a legal system controlled by “special” interests who lean on the scales to benefit them, or the criminals, not the victims.
God that was depressing, I’m gonna go read Lady in Red again!
"Crushed nuts". I practically snorted coffee thru my nose when I read that one! Of course Literotica is a porn site of fantasy, filled with testosterone ladened men that want stories in which the guilty are hung out to dry.
Make it so!
I couldn't be bothered to read beyond the first page.
I normally enjoy HDK's tales, but not this one.
oh man.
what happened here?
an overdose of Beatlemania?
I like you Harddaysknight.
it is quite original though, I must say.
but really what is the point of this story?
It's not that simple.
Actually in the states where marital property is "community property" the spouse can sue on behalf of "marital community".
Also since they are married at the time of harassment the reputational damage can be assessed as damage to the "marital community".
And so on and so forth.
Why don't you make a parody on the LW trope where bosses fuck married women.
In almost every corporation in the US a boss is more likely to suck his own dick that fuck a married subordinate.
Mu relative successfully sued her boss for a lot of money after fucking him.
And so did the friend of my wife.
Two bosses fucking a married woman - millions.
Honestly, I think you're the only writer on this site who has esquire for attorney/lawyer after their name. Totally rediculous.
5 star LW parody ! Let's call this whole district "Cliche-Ville". The only thing missing are the twins!
Thanks for sharing...
Well thought through 5* great to see your humor reappear again.
Sad to see you forget to mention A-holeland :)
Very much a lesser effort from this once talented author. This story was a slog fest so I hope he doesn’t plan on going after every LW trope the same way.
5 stars! This is how I feel everytime I have read a story involving prior special forces training/IT tech company/small town that has a large company and private investigators.
LOL. Very astute. Many thanks HDK, for an enjoyable story that sums up so many fantasy stories here on Literotica.
I'm also grateful that my Country doesn't allow those types of third party cases. If a Company has specific bans on relationships between managers and lower level employees, yes, it would be grounds for dismissal. But no suing of the individuals nor Company. If hints of blackmail or coercion are involved then it becomes a civil case. Very straightforward. Excellent of you to highlight the stupidity of the cases we see in Lit. Cheers.
Obviously satire, and well written at that, but I'd argue that the whole "third party" argument doesnt compare. One the one hand, you have 2 people being held accountable for their actions that break a company policy they agreed to follow (by accepting employment), and on the othet you have someone people held to account for a policy they never agreed to.
Yes, its funny, and obviously the story isnt meant to be taken too seriously, but that kinda of ruined it for me because it just doesnt equate. Still, 4* for an amusing reading.
Excellent tear down of many LW tropes. The one that gets me the most is the "not enforcing their morals code" Even if we were to accept the existence of these codes, wouldn't the company need to know about the offense before the could enforce it?
Very amusing. Let's hope that more than a few LW authors read it before reaching for their cliches.
Neo, take the blue pill and stay in LIT-Land, Lory and her cuck will guide you. Fo‘ sure, sucker. LOL
Morpheu….. aahh, Captcha
story too far from reality with no believable plot nothing erotic or a conclusion
Visualization is a t technique used to help people harness the mind to perform better. You are on a train and it is speeding up to 150 MPH on a curved track. It ends up the same place as this story. BE BETTER NEXT TIME. Try an outline…
Lost me. No....it is not that I didn't follow it. It is just that it got too tedious to continue reading. Not sure how that happens with a short story, but it did. I bailed out before the "payout".
Two stars.
And thus is the beginning of the end of the Loving Wives section as we know it. Will this usher in new concepts of dealing with the cheating wife?
A full 5 stars though I must question if Literotica has a comedy section.
The lawyers meeting in the office was was a slight error given the good news he brought.
Surely the meeting should have been at home because when you're there "everything seems to be right!"
Hilarious! Even though you didn't put this in "humor/satire" hopefully people will remember it's not only, OK but sometimes absolutely necessary to laugh at ourselves.
HIlarious, and spot on. @Tnicol is right, of course: where's the new hotness? Or will our poor exploded-brain dude have to make do with trips to Cuckville? :)
I guess this is an inside joke. Appropriate, but just not worth the hassle for such a lame punch line. I hope all your insiders enjoyed it.
Well, I gave up after the premise that the lawyers could sue him. legally, incorrect and stupid!
He does not work for the lawyers. He did not sign a contract with the lawyers. in his instance, he was the aggrieved party who suffered damage. The lawyers cannot claim they were the aggrieved party and suffered damage from a contract within their organization that he was not a party to. I didn't explain this well, but it was a stupid premise nonetheless even if it turned out to be a parody!
Do you suppose the admins will actually do this? I mean I see gay themed and bullying content in lots of other categories, and let's not get started on whether humiliation is a fetish.
I suppose just requiring appriate tags, with enforcement, might help. At least Van puts his pickaxes right up front.
Loved it. Nailed the fantasy at the cross. Read and chuckled throughout.
5*
I didnt get it, and it wasnt interesting enough for me to want to get it, so I didnt invest the time. I still may not have "got it" even if I did. I think this is vaguely a crack at the commentariat, but who knows for sure?
