Fun With Words With Friends


Blatantly stealing the idea of our head writer, I present a (very) short story using every word from a partially completed Words With Friends game. An autographed head shot of me (actual value $0.72) to anyone who can correctly find the 13 words from said game.

From the darkness that filled the night sky, the gay jaguar could only glean that the moons that surrounded her beautiful planet had been rezoned. Knowing this would affect the qi’s of not only the gay jaguar, but the entire animal kingdom of planet Mitty, she cried a seemingly endless stream of gay jaguar tears. She could feel in her ovary that her time to reproduce was near, and with this unfortunate rezoning of the moons, there was a very real chance that time would never come.

All of Mitty was understandably concerned at the recent developments.

  1. That's always been my motto: When life gets you down and your ovaries start acting up, don't cry, just go fight jaguars.

    Works every time.

  5. What is the rest of this story?!?!

    What happens to the cussing jaguars of Mitty? What are the secret battle techniques of gay jaguars? Most importantly, does she take Pamprin for her ovary problem?!?!

  6. You don't just rush into sequels in a story this important. It'll happen, but it has to be done right.

    Thanks,
    Mike

  7. Hmmph. It's not a sequel if it's the end of the beginning.

    You're welcome,
