...subtract our lazy attempts to bond
divided by my disdain for
jazz and hate for flatulence
add your absurd tantrums...
Holy-Eureka!
what a relief—
we never
had a
chance!

Awesome. This is a joy to read. Jazz makes my ears bleed, I couldn't compromise on that. 👋💕😊
Lamar this was sooooo clever!!! Loved this take on the challenge and the way you played with the meanings of the words!! Congrats on Honourable mention for Most Discussed story this week!!
Hehe, this is wonderful! You gotta both love flatulence if it's ever going to work! 😆
hahaha! This is amazing! So fun and clever, Lamar! Great job! Hope life is AMAZING!
End the relationship before it has a chance to really get started! Brilliant! Math makes for an entertaining metaphor!
So clever, Lamar!! Really applaud what you did in this one! Great use of formatting to give it that think and pause cadence
Bahahah!! 😄 I enjoyed this quirky one Lamar - top job! 👏
I know this was supposed to be funny but it still makes me feel so sad. Loved your Nonet!
As a man with a B.S. degree in Applied Mathematics I can certainly appreciate a good equation.. This adds up nicely. Lol. Good job Lamar.
Excellent written nonet
Ha-ha, this was funny.
Bahahaha!!! Well, those things do add up, lol!! I enjoyed this so much :)
Haha. This is great.
The picture motivated and reminded my school day math. I liked your nonet. Well done.
You must be clairvoyant, Lamar. I have a story-of-the-day for Tuesday, July 30 (I'm posting tomorrow), Day 212 of the 2024 Story-a-Day Challenge. It is a very similar theme, but the opposite: "The Day I Was Allowed to Divide by Zero." Stay tuned! Didn't think to put it in a nonet--brilliant!
Loved this, Lamar! Full of emotion and unqiue concept!
I loved it, so delightful. Well done! :)
