Thought you quit smoking that stuff. Hmmm...five stars, just because you wrote it so well, but geez!
To infinity and beyond, because that was right out there. Lucky he didn't drown in her pussy juice. A fun read.
What a hoot! Thank you. I hold a PhD in astrophysics and wondered whether you would invoke conservation of energy when minifying (genuine physics term, LOL) mass to achieve superluminal velocity. Mini-starships to colonize the galaxy! Five normal size stars for you.
That was a lot of fun! It took me back to Saturday morning Syfy shows. Well done
Very different story, and really glad for that happy ending. Wouldn't mind hearing more if the characters! 5*
This really belongs in Humor and Satire--except that it's not quite satirical. Definitely fantasy, not SF.

I'm no physicist, but the physics is totally bogus. But you knew that already.
I had to say I appreciated how comically you wrote this, while avoiding making it excessively slapstick or too unbelievable. You certainly surprise me by your breadth of writing different genres well.
Quite a tale! Well told, too. I wonder how many kilotons of energy from that much mass would actually have to diverted, controlled and contained though. From what I understand, uranium and plutonium don't really contain more energy thanthe equivalent nass in other forns. They're just less stable, so the energy inherent is more easily released. 200 ponds of body mass should contain as much ebergy as 200 pound of plutonium. That's a lot of energy, for a sudden surge in any direction. We just have to presume a good fictional containment system. 5.
This was simply fun - all froth and bubbles, with a sombre message wrapped up in it.
That was the industrial military complex takes over budgets, lives and corporationd by stealth.
The storyline is predicated on this premise. The softening of the message though humour
somehow makes the countervailing point even stronger.
Small niggle: the word "taught" which means to instruct instead of "taut" which means stiffened.
That's thr problem with spellcheck and similar iterations It's simply fucking dumb. Mebbe A.I. will finally fix that.
Well done Ronde, yet another well-written tale taking things to an expanded conclusion. Thank you yet again.
Peapod41 - I really had to look to find todays error but you did not disappoint - "corporationd" provided the opportunity to pour scorn on your criticisms. If you are going to set yourself up as as an expert it behoves you to abjure the errors you are criticising.
