story time

in today's edition of "this girl writes something" i'm going to share with you a cryptic part-of-a-larger-entity story i wrote for brandon generator, edgar wright and tommy lee edward's brainbaby.

The scanner reads the barcode on my IDcuff. I move it up to my face after the third beep and read today's schedule: 

0730 Breakfast, DHALL 

0800 Comm Assembly, LNX ATR 

0900 History, LL13 

1030 Adv Physics, LL05 

1200 Lunch, DHALL 

*1245 Sys + Strategy, LL22 

*1500 Sp Weapons Training, CC47 

1800 Dinner, DHALL 

*1900 PhSYC Cond, MC438 

Three schedule changes. And PhSYC? So they believed the rumors. They now actually think I am insane.

questions?

why do they all have IDcuffs? 
are those dog tag replacements? 
how far into the future is this? 
are they in the military? 
WTF do all those letters stand for?  
they spelled "psychology" wrong? "physical?"
if he/she's insane, then why still make him/her go to weapons training?
what's happening?


i thought so.

answers? i don't have all of them. i don't even know if i should flesh this out into a full-blown short story or - do i dare say - a book. but i do know that i've been churning out tidbits of stories once every few days. they're longer than the 500-character limit on brandon generator so i haven't submitted any of those. (i do have another one up on the site if curiosity does you in.)

french kids dancing

or more like american actors acting like french kids dancing. either way, best use of french pop music ever.

here's part two of the sketch: les jeunes de paris 2 - le retour
also, props to camille, yelle, emma stone, AND taran killam for making these two of the most entertaining sketches in recent snl seasons.
