comments: "...whilst humming Do do-do doo-doo at an ominous pace, I slowly persuaded the spider to flee... indeed when he saw the huge, dark hallway ahead of him he did the right thing and scooted out where a whole new world awaited him."
peatal profile - diary
comments: "I want to be a scum of the earth manga ka, a writer, an astronaut, an artist, or do voices for cartoon and video game characters. Or I want to name crayons. That would be fun."

comments: "Yes, that's dog poo under that butterfly."
angelicagirl profile - diary
comments: "Today would have been just as bad as yesterday had it not been for a hilarious ad I saw: "If you have schizophrenia ... You are NOT ALONE." Stupid ads make me and the voices laugh."
larrielou profile - diary
comments: "I got my hair done the other day. She put the foils in, and then went off and read a magazine. 15 minutes passed, when I suddenly heard a strange sound. I looked up - and she was asleep!!! Why do these things happen to me?"

wifemotherme profile - diary
comments: "Ever wonder what happens to a panty liner when you forget to remove it from your panties before you stick them in the washing machine? Blows up with gel, much like a diaper. J did not find this bit of trivia as interesting as I did."
