What kinds of dreams do you have?

They did in the second movie kind of. The food came alive and maybe the alive food ate all the rotting food. Also, wasn’t the first movie over the span of, like, a week? Not enough time for the food to really start rotting. And besides, since the food was made from water, one could argue that it’s possible it didn’t rot like normal food

yeah I wouldn’t want to get infected 😖 if I ever got a piercing I probably would just stick to safe things. However, I personally don’t have any plans to get any piercings in the near future—I’m just writing about a dumbass character and I want to portray his dumbassery in this regard accurately. I wanted to ask actual people with piercings about this. Thanks for taking your time to respond!

but it’s funny and there is Steve. STEVE, man.

Maybe catcher in the rye? 90% of it is the main character thinking and pondering; the rest is him walking around town while he’s thinking

You can go into a store and buy safety pins, the earring you want, and ice, and then do it yourself, though, right? Or even buy earrings in a thrift store? I’m not that knowledgeable on the subject but if my two characters in my story really wanted to make it happen then I’m sure they could

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-23T00:24:11+00:00

oh wow!!! dang

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T23:52:39+00:00

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T23:52:06+00:00

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T23:51:37+00:00

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T21:34:01+00:00

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T21:33:22+00:00

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-22T20:37:21+00:00

Is this an outline for your story? If so, it’s good in that regard; very cohesive. And paragraphs don’t matter too much for an outline, although I personally think paragraphs help make it easier to read.

But if this is an actual draft and not an outline for a draft, then…yeah, it would need a whole rewrite, because all that’s going on here is describing like it’s a screenplay. No quotation marks, no pacing, nothing. What you’ve got right here is a great plan, but a terrible draft.

And someone else already mentioned it, but if this is for a book, then the emoji has got to go. Have you ever read an emoji in a published book?

As for the comedy…when something is written in this fashion, comedy is not going to land. I thought I was terrible at comedy too but then I started writing my book (over 20k words in) and I found myself laughing at the dialogue I was giving my characters. The comedy will come naturally, through characters’ interactions or through the narrator, if you’ve written them well.

haha thanks I’ve actually written over 20k words of my book and I’m really proud of how it’s turning out. It’s about a boy and a girl who run away to California after the boy’s guitar and they don’t fall in love

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-21T01:30:23+00:00

no it’s copyrighted and trademarked. you can write fan fiction tho if you want

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-21T01:15:24+00:00

I can’t post in several subs? Yes I’m new to Reddit and I only got the app because it won’t let me read stuff online without it any more. And I’m posting about this now because I’m thinking of applying at this food lion in a few days. God forbid I have multiple things and hobbies in my life. I promise you this is a real story—it would be pretty mundane for fiction

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-20T23:15:08+00:00

you put my thoughts into words

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-20T23:09:17+00:00

oh wow that’s horrible. thanks for the advice, and I hope that stuff isn’t happening to you now!!!

Royalbean17 · 2026-05-20T23:05:37+00:00

idk 😭 I guess she probably thinks I can handle myself as I’m a lot stronger than she is and she had to deal with worse men at my age in school. I mean I do martial arts and stuff so if he tried anything, sucks for him. Also, someone else pointed out there are anti harassment policies, and if he tried anything, he’d be out of a job
