The Great Key Kerfuffle: How a Tiny Misplacement Unlocked Townwide Chaos:
In the quaint hamlet of Picklewick (population: 723 and a very opinionated goat), Mayor Thaddeus P. Whifflebottom III was known for three things: his impeccably waxed mustache, his obsession with ceremonial rituals, and his uncanny ability to turn molehills into mountains. The town’s motto, “Order Above All, Except Maybe Pie,” was etched into every park bench, mailbox, and the goat’s collar.

"Sandwich Misunderstood"
"Sandwich Misunderstood" Ben had always taken great satisfaction in his ability to solve problems. Ben was the person you called when something went wrong, whether it was repairing the copier at work or assisting his neighbor with assembling IKEA furniture (which ended up needing a few extra screws). But today was going to go horribly wrong in a way that nobody could have foreseen.

election campaign of a leader
Netaji's procession of promises It was election season in the village, and Netaji Pandey ji was in the fray once again. Last time when he won the election, he had vowed to change the fate of the village. But forget about the fate, even the broken roads of the village did not change. The electricity poles were still hanging, and the water tank had become a permanent residence for pigeons.

How To Curse Someone (With High Efficacy)
In life, you are bound to encounter people who don’t like you from time to time if you live past a certain age. We all have different personalities and values - and these do not always mesh well with each other.

A coffee nightmare!. Top Story - March 2025.
"Where, What, Why are my pants running away!" "No, No, I don't want you to follow!" I held the rest of my clothes tightly and squeezed under the bed after I fell to the ground to see if anyone was around. I held my breath in flight and fight mode but couldn't see anyone.

To the readers. This story was indeed a challenge. The writing style is complicated and with an infusion of absurdity, unexpected humor, and twist, this one got my *hit in a knot. So yes, there is mild swearing and general confusion. But it's how we learn and Improve our writing. Writing is an art, an abstract art, and will convey several interpretations for the reader, peers and judges. Thanks for making this opportunity available for my attempt at finishing before the cut off.

An Absurdist Search for The Odious Oligarch of Oz. Top Story - March 2025.
"I'm hungry." Barely awake, Dorsey had just finished his morning tea. He yelled... "Who said that?" His shaggy black cat was on the other side of the room.

Look out, here she comes
Will someone explain to me – in a way I can, maybe, understand – what AI involves? I'm too technologically challenged even to fathom the very concept...the possibilities. I'm probably more confused about this than I was when someone tried to explain how a facsimile (fax) machine worked back in the 1980s. I still don't understand completely. That’s a lie. I still don’t understand at all. It's fallen into the category of 'things I don't need to know'.

Economy of Produce
“Mommy, why do you eat the grapes?” “To see how sweet they are.” “Can I try a grape?” “No child, you're sweet enough. If you try a grape and it’s sour, it might make you sour too.”

Digesting Words
Heavy rain continues to pour, creating red puddles of goo. I don’t have another name for it. It has the consistency of blood, but I’m unwilling to investigate.

A Funny Thing Happened to Me After Work the Other Day
I’m about to dust off a real old vaudevillian chestnut. A funny thing happened to me after work the other day… You always hear that line or some variation of it on TV or in movies whenever they bring out a hacky comedian—“A funny thing happened to me on the way over here…”, “A funny thing happened to me the other day…”—and it’s always followed by some really corny old joke that’s been done to death like, “A funny thing happened to me on my way here to tonight: a guy comes up to me and he says, ‘I haven’t had a bite in days!’ So I bit him!” or “A funny thing happened to me on the way here: a guy walks up to me and he says he hasn’t tasted food in over a month, so I says to him, ‘Don’t worry; it still tastes the same.’”
