2048 characters left. What shall I write? Damn, now I only
have 1981. Better make it good. Alright, here goes. I have
thought of something great to fit into 1981 characters of
text. Here goes. Shit, I only have 1834 left now. Okay,
scrap that last idea. It wasn't that good anyway. I doubt it
would be possible anyway - hedphukkerr isn't THAT stupid.
Alright, 1685 left, what am I going to say? This is getting
harder. Ah, I remembered something I wanted to tell
everyone! Can I fit it into 1685 characters though? Yeah,
easy, that shouldn't be a problem too much. Might be a bit
compressed, but they'll get the idea. Yeah, do that. Okay.
Shit, I have 1393 left now. There is no way I could fit my
latest time travel method in that. Shit. Now what am I
supposed to fit in 1273 characters? Some kind of joke? What
jokes do I know? Not many that can fit into 1273 characters.
Oh, hang on, there's that one about the piece of scissors
made out of merangue. Yeah, tell that one, they'll love it!
Alright, I can fit that into 1273 charaacters easy. Great.
Here goes then. Damn, I only have 961 characters left now.
Damn. Maybe I should tell you about the latest discovery in
the field of egg custard. Yeah, that'll take up what.. 820
characters? Great, that's exactly what I have! Right, so how
can I start to tell you about this discovery? Oh, yeah, of
course, that's where I'll start. Right, 820 characters of
pure egg custard research coming up! Okay, here we go, hold
on to your hat! Oh no, I only have 543 characters left. That
is much less than I imagined. I could never fit anything in.
Except one thing. Hmm. It'll work, maybe. Yeah. Great idea.
I'm gonna tell you about this time when I wanted to make a
really awesome thread but I started getting really worried
about how many characters I had left. I kept thinking of
different ideas yeah, and then I had to check how many
characters I had left, and it was always less than what I
had based the story around, so I had to think of another
idea, then I finally thought of something

Alright, then... 2048 characters, 8 minutes.

Once upon a time, slightly behind someone's house, there
lived a small watering hose with a splotch of yellow from
where it had stayed in the sun for a bit too long. One day,
while it was minding its own business, as watering hoses
often do, it began to feel rather odd. It felt constricted,
tight, even swelling. This was alarming at first, to our
hero the watering hose, but after a while the feeling began
to numb and went away almost entirely. It had all but
forgotten about the awful feeling it had been feeling only
moments earlier when it finally got up the energy to turn
around and peer at its lower half (watering hoses are lazy
things, you see - have you ever seen one move? No, not
often). To our small friend's horror, and somewhat similar
to its own precognition (for the hose was slightly psychic),
it found that it was indeed swelling to alarming
proportions. The cause of this was all the more surprising
to the hose for there was a large mammal (it may have been a
marsupial - it had fur), had its eating appendage clamped
down over one of the more tender parts of the hose - the
yellow spot! Luckily for the hose, this strange creature
did not have teeth so it was not in any immediate danger of
being punctured. Nonetheless, the hose was still quite
concerned. Concerned it was, but helpless also. The hose
watched its lower half swell larger and larger to the point
where it began to turn white and then transparent. The time
for the hose to expire had come - so it did. It expired in
a rather impressive explosion, drenching the yard, and
making a fat man in the next yard over grunt slightly in his
sleep. The owner of the hose found it the next day and
buried it in the back yard, slightly behind where it had
spent most of its productive life. Several years later, a
child running through the yard stepped on a bit of the old
hose sticking up from out of the ground and was convinced
they had been bitten by a snake. A man came out and shot it
with a rifle.

there once was a little russet potato who was so sweet his
family disowned him. his father shouted things at his mother
like "this ain't no son o mine! damn, bitch!" and the little
potato family was torn apart and sad. so sad. but nobody was
as sad as the little russet potato who was as sweet as lumps
of sugar sandwiched between two chocolate bars. no. he was
even sweeter than that. he was like a bowl of ice cream
topped with a cherry, floating in a pool of melted
gobstoppers. or something. but even sweeter. and stuff.
anyways, after a long night of listening to papa potato beat
patty potato (his sister) because he was so angry about his
wife, the little guy left home never to return. he decided
he'd rather his family hate eachother because they hate
eachother, but not because of him. he went to the farm in
search of new friends where he met tommy tomato. "hi,
tommy!" said the little potato. "hello!" said tommy. "let's
be friends!" said the little potato. "okay!" said tommy. and
together they walked along. then they met sally, the bucket
of sour cream. and they all became friends, too. much in the
same way tommy and the little potato had become friends.
they were still walking along when they met carl cucumber.
"hi, carl!" they all shouted. wow, what a bunch of friendly
guys. and together, the potato, the tomato, the sour cream,
and the cucumber went on their way together, excited to meet
whatever and whoever lie before them. soon they came to a
big castle. and it was dark and mysterious. the kind of
castle that you see in movies where the bad guy lives. they
went up to the castle and knocked on the large wooden door.
"hello, mr. castle!" tommy shouted. but just then a giant
mouth came down and crushed tommy between it's massive
teeth! it was raining tomato juicies and paste all over the
other three friends. "oh my god! tommy!" they were all
shouting. but it was too late. too late for all of them. and
the mouth kept swooping down and picking them off one by one
as they screamed and squirted th

then landed with almost no sound for it was a smallish BIRD,
an unclean Bird, a demon-happy coonbird in fact, and goddamn
the dogs wouldn't go near it to retrieve. Turns out it was a

Once upon a time, there was a cosy little blanket. He had
grown very tired of constantly being laid on, sprawled out,
covered up by another blanket, stored in a closet, snugly
fit over a human's disgusting body, or forced to cover the
naked flesh of two humans before, during, and after sexual
intercourse. One day he got so fed up during his owner's
daily love-making that he finally screamed out in terror.
Each human thought that it was the other that made that
horrible scream. The man's wife left the room, and slammed
the door. From the tiny ears of the blanket, some shouting
was heard, and then later a car drove off screeching
violently. During the next few days, out of the corner of
his tiny eyes, the blanket saw the man filling out divorce
papers. He overheard the man say 'Oh no! Now I will need to
give her half of my possessions!' The blanket was naively
happy that he would no longer be adjacent to their love
making, but he was slightly concerned about this ''half''
business. His puny blanket brain was far too feeble to make
any sense of that situation, until one day he was torn in
half by his good friend Mr. Scissors, who cried the whole
time, but obediently carried out his vile, violent,
friend-shredding orders. For the rest of his life, the
blanket lived his life with a splintered mind; he had become
more than a blanket. He had become multiple rags. 2-3 in
each human's household. Each
Rag (blanket segment) would spend the rest of his days
sitting in a dark closet inside a cardboard box with other
cannibalised fabrics, wishing for death. The only human
interaction he now has is occasionally being pulled out of
the box, to wipe up a spill or to be sprayed with a harsh,
caustic wood cleaner and help polish off the furniture.

"Hello, Jack! Are you there?" cried Pip from beneath his
half-open bedroom window. Jack's spritely little face popped
out from the gap and gave its chirpy reply.
"Hello Pip! How are you today? What are you doing here?"
Pip, surprised that Jack had forgotten about the big picnic,
tried to jog is memory "Don't you remember, silly? Today is
the day of our big adventure! I've got scones, strawberries,
and some of my famous home-made lemonade! Kate is on the
way, and even James is coming! It'll be the best picnic
ever!"
"Of course! How could I forget?" said Jack as the happy
memories of planning the event flashed into his head. "I'll
be down post-haste!"

The four friends had all decided to spend the hottest day of
the year at Old Jessop's field. Of course, no-one knew who
Old Jessop really was, but such was the way of the village;
the legend goes that he was the friendliest man you ever did
see, and he kept his field open to all. It was a glorious
field; I could spend almost 2048 characters explaining its
beauty. Sadly, my friends, the legend of Old Jessop is
another story.

By the time Jack got to the porch of his thatch roof
cottage, James and Kate were waiting. The pair were ecstatic
- it truly was set to be the best picnic ever. James had
brough his trusty harmonica, and Kate, to Jack's great
pleasure, had brought one of her home-knitted rugs. Jack had
to bring something too, of course, and what an item it was!
He had in his hand the most adorable set of juggling balls,
as Jack's father had been the town's favourite jester for
many years, and Jack indeed continued the tradition. The
balls were of a fine leather, smooth to the touch and soft,
but at the same time sturdy enough to perform many a trick.
The friends decided that they had no more time to waste, and
set off on their delightful journey.

During the walk to old Jessop's, Jack's playful walk came to
an abrupt halt. There was a reason for this he: was a robot
clone. He detonated the three juggling balls that each
friend was

Ahh, the stories about inanimate objects are great!

Once upon a time, there was a little juggling ball. He was
the happiest juggling ball the world has ever known. He had
even thought of a name for himself: Happy. Yes, his stupid
little ball-brain was happy enough to give itself a name.
And what a suitable name it was. Well done, little ball. Of
course, the ball's mental capacity was so taken up by the
name creation that it failed to realise it had a new
scientific discovery being placed inside it. This discovery,
you ask? The world's smallest H-bomb, my friends. Oh yes.
This bomb is small enough to fit inside the eye of a needle,
yet powerful enough to destroy an entire planet. Just three
of these bombs in under a 100 meter radius of each other
would be enough to bring the entire universe to a halt.
Well, the fate of three such ball-bombs is another story.
Let it be known, however, that the balls are given to a
specially designed robot programmed to destroy and take on
the form of the first person it sees. The rest, as they in
the movies, is history.

Old Jessop™ Industries are the world's largest
manufacturer of H-bombs and robots to date. Their main
outlet is in the middle of a large field in an archaic and
ignorant village. The radiation let out by the factories is
enough to drive the villagers insane, giving them ideas that
the field is some kind of promised land and they find
themselves drawn, usually in groups of three or four, to it.
Every month, Old Jessop™ Industries produce a
"Destructo-clone" robot and release it upon the unsuspecting
villagers. Details of what this robot does are vague,
however it is believed to carry with it some kind of
groundbreaking development in atomic research. Further
details were unavailable at the time of writing.

once upon some fucking time i was sitting here and becoming
ready to type something. The problem is that i have this
channel on with pool trick shot. So as i am typing i keep
getting confused with the things i have to say. Maybe i will
try to inflate a raft. Or perhaps i will scale a wall that
is over 55 inchs. Not too sure. I need more charcoal and i
sure need a furnace.

Give me my damn fruit snacks and read me a story!
