Honestly the biggest problem with the story is in the phrase "3 feet long" to the point where I'm thinking maybe that was just a very unfortunate typo like, to match the rest of the story's tone it'd have to be like 3000 feet long

Bonus: the psychic thing was pissed at Hillary and that's why, well, you know.

Forget the tens of thousands of workers over decades that you'd have to keep quiet -- just the volume of dirt you'd have to dispose of would give it away. You need to set this story in a more plausible place, like next to one of those giant open pit mines, where huge piles of earth appearing overnight wouldn't warrant a second glance. Yeah, they'd have to find a way to spend way too much money to dig under the city that would produce wildly ineffective public results. No chance of that ever happening. Oh hey, is the Metro on fire again?

But hey what do I know, I;m no amateur sci fi author. Well that's even dumber, how would you get a 9.5-mile-long ship under Washington DC without anyone seeing it quote:Over the last few years I've started experiencing auditory hallucinations when I've gone to bed really drunk. It's like I'm surrounded by people who are talking and I keep hearing brief snatches of what they're saying. I'm aware at the time that it isn't real but I kinda like just lying there and hearing what kind of dumb poo poo my brain is gonna throw at me. I haven't told anyone about this, even my wife, because I stopped drinking a few months ago so it hasn't happened in a while and also because there is a history of mental illness in my family and I don't want to face up to the possibility that this could be a sign of some underlying issue. Sorry there's no murder or abuse in this confession I guess. You should probably get it checked out though I know addressing it as a real possibility is tough but it's easier than waiting for it to start happening sober and dealing with it then Followup from the meth rapist guy quote:I probably won't make another confession. People seem to have gotten really riled up, and the last thing I want is a posse coming after me. Still, this is some bullshit, yo. People have extremely complex relations. My interpretation is that everyone in your story should move away and never speak to each other again, and also that you remind me of the guy from A Confederacy Of Dunces I didn't finish the book because it was starting to creep me out and depress me but I don't think he raped anyone in it There was also someone saying he got his first boner in months reading the first one, but it was just the one sentence, so, I guess, congrats on the boner

I'm late on the bush story but why would you consider cleaning the glass of an alien enclosure a punishment? That would be pretty sweet actually. You'd have pretty great job security since they can't exactly advertise for a new squid alien poo poo cleaner. also for the love of God short story...err...confession writers, stop doing the letters as names thing. It makes it awful to read and it's fake anyway so just loving make up a name.

IAWTP also don't tell us you're making up a name. you aren't a journalist and no one gives a poo poo. just make up a name and pretend it's their real one. do NOT make up a name for everyone by repeatedly saying "let's call him/her X, and X's mother, let's call her Y, and Y's dog, let's call him Z" and poo poo like that. ABSOLUTELY do not make up a name by repeating all that horseshit once at the beginning of the post and then never actually using the fake names in the story mad about bad writing

As it says in the OP, this thread gets less fun if we assume every fesh is fake and spend all our time debating that, but, some of them are self-evidently fake but, fakeness does not a bad fesh make. Some of my all-time favorites were obviously fake, but fun reads.

The most positive reading of your story I can imagine is that you should have stopped pursuing her when you realized she had these Brain Problems, long before it got to the point it did. Granted, that would require you to make good life choices while on meth...

i skimmed that whole tweaker "confession" because it was just exhausting to read but glancing through i saw thisquote:I would often kiss her shingle, which had appeared right above her pelvis a bit after I had confessed my feelings for her, and when I would embrace her without kissing it, she would make a disappointed face. what the gently caress does this mean? does he mean the blistery rash caused by the chicken-pox virus, shingles? because that is loving revolting and sounds like something only a crusty disgusting meth-head would doohhhhhh i get it now.

I don't understand why they would take someone to show them the big underground hanger at all. I just don't think that a Top Secret project that runs on a need-to-know basis is going to suddenly decide "Well lets show this random guy who's complaining about funding where the money is going to shut him up/scare him into silence". According to the story they already brought him before the President because they were accusing him of spying for Cuba, they would just discredit him if he really became a problem. Sorry, I didn't want to go all "This one's fake!" but I think it could have used a little more work to be a good, semi-plausible confession. Comedy Option: Confessor dad: "What the hell was that thing, Mr. President?" GHWB: "We've been combining genetic mutation with your own research into psychic phenomenon to create a creature that will 'attack' us from another dimension to to inspire world peace and prosperity." Confessor dad: "That's insane. When were you planning to do such a thing?" GHWB: "Planning to do it? I did it 35 minutes ago."

I mean, if you're only looking at the extreme edges, then yeah, crazy people who are Mad Online can always find some ideology they can twist to support their preexisting beliefs, but that's no justification for horseshoe theory poo poo (which crazy people in, quote, the political center, unquote, use to support their preexisting beliefs) I think this is literally just the SCUMM manifesto though quote:Don't think this really counts as forum drama as I'm not gonna name any names. Just that there are a handful of posters on this website that I feel such incredibly blind, seething hatred toward I have constructed these elaborate fantasies in my head that I spend large amounts of the day dwelling upon and refining. I think you should go outside quit gettin' mad at the internet I mostly only ever get mad at politics stuff and even then I find it really helps if I make some attempt at Chilling The gently caress Out. Practice some mindfulness and gratitude. Consider the lilies of the goddamn field. Just fuckin' namaste out.
