"Bad proofreader, bad BAD proofreader!" Zelda

  • "Bad proofreader, bad BAD proofreader!" Zelda glared. "All you've done is introduce fresh errors to the typesetters' pristine proofs! Have you been smoking in your office again?"
  • Then the bad proofreader turned really bad and marked a crimson laser "x" on Zelda's forehead, from the desert eagle's scope. "Zelda, you're about to become a legend," and
  • with that, he pulled the trigger. Zelda should have died right there but in the split second the proofreader shot the gun, a hawk flew by the took the bullet. When Zelda realized
  • that the previous fold had a glaring grammatical error, it was clear that she had succeeded in distracting the proofreader as plan. She continued too cavort. The ensuing deluge off
  • the Nevada coast was mere sprinkles compared to the pounding Isla California took. Her prancing went on without stop. Onlookers began to gather
  • to see her tumble over a railing of the beachside cafeteria & plummeted into the ocean. Dolphins & octopi swarmed on her. I looked back to my PC. "Foldest Stories on FoldingStory."
  • I typed every letter to make such an interesting plot, talking about how the dolphins and octopi gratefully ate the lady alive. There was a knock on my door and i opened to my
  • surprise there was a run-on sentence with a dangling participle! My grammar always told me to beware of these - the spells they cast were wicked! The dolphin/octopus plot soon
  • devolved into fifty shades of aquatic erotica. The octopus did most of the writing, surprisingly, then hid in an ancient jar while the dolphin edited it and threw in a few
  • chains &whips, you know the normal stuff. The SquidKing didnt really C how "freaky" the aquatic erotica genre was, he's being doing it 4years with the rays, & they never bat an eye

    This is like the third or fourth time I've somehow managed to return to the starting theme of a FoldingStory without knowing it. :)

    Still better written, more interesting and less exploitative than Fifty Shades of Gray.
