Write an Intentionally putrid short story

So I know that dear Elinor recently held a contest very much like this a few weeks ago and I thought it was so amazingly brilliant, I decided to hold one of my own! It may seem like a ripoff (sorry Elinor), but the concept was just so ingenious, I had to hold one myself. There is a catch however, the catch being that you will be assigned a random prompt. The fact that you will be assigned a random prompt (which range from rational topics to incredibly stupid concepts) will ensure that you are caught entirely off-guard and will be forced to write the worst piece of filth you can think of.

Although there are prompts, you can still be creative and go off on random tangents diverting from your story (I am making it flexible enough to allow you to incorporate your own original ideas), but just try to keep it relatively on topic in regards to your concept that is assigned.

How this will work:

You must pick two numbers. The first number you must pick will be in-between one and five and will decide which genre your story will be. The second number you pick must be in-between one and ten; it will assign a specific setting or theme in relation to your picked genre.

Rules:

1. Please write using sen-intelligable grammar. It is okay to misuse words, make run-on sentences, and make a purposefully mistake or punctuation error from time to time, but don't overuse it to the point of me not being able to understand it. I won't be able to judge the badness of a story unless it is intelligible enough to read. Do not misspell words either.

2. Do not make off-colour jokes or remarks in your story (in relation to controversial topics). It should be common knowledge, but I am just letting you all know that I do not want something blatantly offensive. For instance, do not joke about controversial topics like, say, the Holocaust, 9/11, abortion, or homosexuality. You are more than welcome to mention them if it pertains to your story, but try not to do so offensively.

3. (I know it is cliched) But have fun!

What's At Stake:

I'm just a poor boy from a poor family, so I have very little to offer. Honestly, I have very few points, so unless an anonymous benefactor is willing to contribute to my personal coffers (which would be MUCH APPRECIATED ), all I can offer is reviews.

One grand prize winner will receive five reviews for any story of their choice.

One 1st prize winner will receive three reviews

two 2nd place winners will win a review each. WHen I say review, I mean a VERY COMPREHENSIVE review.

I know it isn't much, but it isn't about the prize, it is about having fun!

The deadline for submission is October 2nd.

Happy Writing!

P.S. Elinor, since you hosted the last one, you might find it fun to put yourself in your own situation by joining this contest.

I know you want me.






(Just because you asked )
Can I play but I'm not in it for the points? (I have a surplus)

And being a master of terrible writing I can offer to contribute to your contest by reviewing all of the bad stories written and giving advice on how to make them worse. <3

My entry:

Once upon a time.

The end.

Do we have to post the story or PM it t ya?
Mine's ready!

Here's my entry:

This cute guys likes me. Maybe. I like him to. Maybe he'll ask me to date him. I would say yes. My friend asked him to ask me out. I want him to. He's so cute. He's a senior too. Oh, look. He's walking this way. He might do it. "Lauren, do you want to date me?"
"Yes!"
"I'll see you Friday night at 6."
"Bye Chase!"
-the next day-
"Hey Lauren, I'm breaking up with you for Sally. She's a lot cuter than you."
"You jerk!" Why did he break up with me? I'm perfect! I'm going to tell everyone that he broke up with me. But first, I'm going to cry and make it look like I pretend to care.

The end

Hey, sorry I have not been able to read the stories lately. It has just been busy from my end. If you can PM them to me, I'll look over them when I get the chance.
