This is a great start for a murder mystery. I don’t have the time to write it, so I hereby give all rights away to anyone who wants it. It’s about a guy who kills people and disposes of the bodies in the dryer with his laundry. He has a big dryer, by the way. He turns it on, and goes to watch TV. When he comes back, the body and half of his socks are always missing. And a good side story could be about how he only buys one type of sock(same brand and everything), so they always match, even though half are missing. Oh, yeah! This has NY Times Best Seller written all over it. And maybe the cops could find this hidden dimension through the Police Chief’s dryer, which happens to lead to the same dimesnsion. And the Chief found it, because the dryer took his gun, or something. I see a bunch of holes, but any decent author could path it up. And feel free to change all the stuff about the second dryer and missing gun. Stuff like that is why I don’t write the stories myself. Smilies kick ass. Any takers?
remember the one where they went camping and went “skeeeeeny-dipping” And then there was the fire man. and ren tried to start a fire by creating friction between two beavers. if that’s not a sexual reference then cooking bacon naked isn’t a bad idea.
My favorite one of all time was the one where they marketed Stimpy’s hairballs. He licked all the hair off himself and Ren. That was hilarious! Damn, looks like I’m gonna have to start taping them after all. What a great cartoon!
I had a pretty good idea for a book once. But I suck at writing so the best it ever became was a short story in high school.
If anyone wants to write it, go ahead.
Anyway there is this detective investigating all these nasty murders. In each one, the eyes are ripped out of the victims. He spends the whole story trying to figure out what sicko is doing this. Gradually he keeps getting slight clues like blood on his sheets and soar wrists and scrapes and stuff. Then he realizes that he house is at the epicenter of all the murders. Each murder gets further and further away from his house.
He eventually realizes that a crazy old man he talked to near the begining of the murders must have done something to him. He recalls all the psycho stuff the old man had and this old spooky book. The detective was at the man’s house to check up on him at the request of the man’s family. While there, the old guy sang the detecive a song. It was a short scary song, maybe Aramaic. Turns out anyone who hears this song becomes possessed by an evil demon. The demon gradually gets stronger with each eye it consumes because it needs souls and the eyes are the gateway to the souls or something. At first the demon is only strong enough to take control of the detective while he is sleeping, and the demon cannot go too far from the house. Each murder and each set of eyes makes the demon stronger…
Anyway the detective finally realizes that it is HIM who is doing all the killings that he is investigating. He is doing it at night while he thinks he is sleeping. He finds out the the demon will soon be strong enough to completely control him, so he turns himself in to the state attorney. He explains that he committed the murders and that he is possessed. Naturally they label him the new Son of Sam and try him on 20 somthing murder charges. He is convicted and sentenced to the chair.
Then, moments before he is sent to the chair, a big tv station like CBS is there for an exclusive interview. The detective is pretty much demoned out by now. He is sitting in the back of his cell just rocking back and forth. The tv guy says, “Detective Brooks, we are live in front of millions of viewers, is there anything you have to say for yourself?”
“Why yes,” he says as he looks up with evil red eyes, “I would like to sing a song for you!”
Then that is the end of the book.
It implies that he is going to sing the evil song to millions of people and they will all be possessed and they will all start killing. Soon the whole country will be full of murderous demons.
That is pretty much the just of it. It probably doesnt sound like much the way I described it because I gave it all away too fast. Don’t you think this would at least make a pretty good movie though??
What do you think?
::Ren grabs the soap out of the dish and starts chewing on it when Stimpy tries to stop him::
[Ren]“It’s my ice cream bar!..”
::starts ranting on about having it since he was a child, etc.:
“I ran 'em over with my truck!”
“They were running around with scissors in their hands!”
And something about not waiting an hour after eating before going swimming…
This was a completely pointless thread, really. That, and Ren & Stimpy’s a hell of a lot funnier than my post.
Bear: I like it. Why don’t you post the story somewhere?
Continue hijacking. Sweet! The green iMac commercial is on with Kermit singing It’s Not Easy Being Green. I don’t know why, but that commercial cracks me up everytime I see it. It’s over.
And now for something completely different.
A man with three buttocks.
It sounds a little like the what goes around, comes around film that I now can’t remember the name of ! There was a detective & he had caught a serial killer & but the demon doesn’t get killed by the chair & just moves to another body. Eventually he works out that it is a demon & how to stop it infecting anyone, not the person doing it, but it infects him.
(spoiler alert - stop reading now)
[SUB] so he kills himself in the woods, to try to stop it passing to anyone, but it goes to an owl or fox or something & then back to humans…[/SUB]
& there was soemthing like it years ago, when it turned out the private eye was doing it & he had sold his soul to the devil but couldn’t remember …something heart? angelheart?
Anyway, who cares if it’s been done? If it is well written, it would sell anyway. Many stories, especially fantasy ones these days, are rehashes of the same plot elements.
Listen everybody, this is a rerouting. if you guys wanna hijack a thread, hijack this thread. it can’t be done. go ahead and try. i dare ya. if you can successfully hijack the thread, i will send you a copy of my cartoon archives, complete with every ren and stimpy cartoon ever aired, and the fabled “lost ren and stimpy” where stimpy gets married.
Smilies kick ass. Any takers?
