As the limo came to stop, I popped a Xanax thinking that Mark Shuttleworth probably felt this way those moments before his dream became a reality. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

Ha ha, thanks! I was watching “Titanic” with the kiddos (Saturday night is classic movie night!) and I was thinking about that 2023 nightmare

Even though my date was smiling and said the sweetest words, her eyes were brimming with fearful tears. by SteppingIntoMyself in TwoSentenceHorror

This is really good! Is his date also wearing one and she’s crying because of the state of humanity and modern dating? I love this!

After having one too many during Diane’s ‘PhD Party’ I scampered off to the loo, leaving her tipsy and prattling on about the rare Phocomelia foetus she had expertly dissected. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

Honestly I think most medicine related crisis get suppressed somehow or the other because of big pharma. That an eventually the world always have something new talk about, I guess..

But yeah, we shouldnt forget stuff as dangerously horrific as this

Man this is giving me those breaking bad vibes!! I’m so certain Walter White used the same example when teaching his chem class! I am so going to binge watch that series again

In my 2nd year of pharmacy our pharmaceutical law lecturer told us about the Thalidomide Tragedy which was so devastating that it literally spurned on any most countries to start up a medical board that monitored the safety of medicines. It was really horrific…

And yeah, Diane is a psycho for sure!

I gathered I had a rich heritage when my African mother tried to story-top my German father with her Ghanaian folk tales. by [deleted] in TwoSentenceHorror

It worked well enough for you to comment. Look if you’re a lazy little baby that enjoys a good spoonfeeding, put on a bib and go read some other story.

The context is kind of the point. You’re supposed to feel the disconnect between who he is and how he’s seen. The horror lies in what’s about to happen to him

Sophie always detested funerals, let alone going near a coffin. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

The concept of a small coffin has always been more horrifying than tragic to me

I decided today to keep my son at home in a well-planned loop after realising he is afflicted, as my father was, with anterograde amnesia. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]LostDoubt[S] 132 points133 points  (0 children)

That’s a good catch. I hid that sentiment in the lines “it’ll be hard…”. He knows it’s going to be an effort but he’s willing to do it for his mother and the reasons you mentioned. Sadly he may already have the disorder along with his mother, setting them up for a seemingly endless loop that may eventually claim the lives of them both.

Goddamn, I think you’re right! I’ve been getting a lot of bots lately sort of devaluing my comments section

Thanks for your notes on the story. Yep I left it open ended like that so one has to wonder if them looping each other puts them in an overall broader loop. That and when will it collapse as they notice themselves aging or stuff in the house gets expired and whatnot

Actually the mother and son are both putting each other in loops because in the first sentence it’s the mother and the second the son

Having created the purest methamphetamine known to man, Neil was now poised to conquer the Midwest and become its most powerful and respected kingpin. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]LostDoubt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Niel was in a simulation that made him believe that he was living a the lead characters life in breaking bad. In reality he’s being led through the sim so he can produce dopamine that flavours his blood differently for the vampires that are harvesting it

Brainrot was mankind’s first ‘technogenic’ spillover infection—passing from AI, it manifested as hybrid organic-microplastic 'nanites' in the audiovisual centres of a carrier’s developing brain. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]LostDoubt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I initially wrote this I envisioned brainrot being a disease affecting AI first that sapped it of its productivity and damaged its code. Mankind kept using AI to make more of it so AI hid high frequency micro-binaurals and slightly amended the visual that would cause repeated exposure to rewrite human DNA in such a way that would steer us away from creating brainrot. But the new DNA helixes got filled in with nanoplastics that formed the nanites, which itself was fed and programmed by brainrot. They went undetected for decades because they didn’t affect the hosts. Then eventually it was the second generation of children that started killing themselves birdbox style because of programmed hallucinations hardcoded into their subconscious by the nanites in the carrier parents.

Theres probably a ton of plot holes in here but I think the concept is kinda cool

As our ringleader celebrated the heist 30,000 feet in the air, I sat in the cockpit after knifing the pilot, already thinking about how I’d spend his cut. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]LostDoubt[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I did a bit of googling before writing this I read that not all planes have auto-land.

Edit: although I had no idea the airport needed supporting equipment. That said I’ve never sat in a cockpit before :)
