“Sweety,
I wanted to tell you, honestly I did."
“Liar, I had to find out from my best friend that you and she are...”
"Evelyn….she's a witch and I'm... It was supposed to be our secret."
“Now, she wants to tell our family and friends. I’m so embarrassed.”
“Can’t we just keep this quiet and ignore it?”
“Everyone will laugh, knowing my husband and best friend are LARPers.”

I mean no disrespect towards those in the LARPing world. I envy people who can be so free and enjoy themselves doing what ever the hell it is they wish to do.

Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

The things I learn… LARPers!🧐 Entertaining take on the challenge ✅
haha, this was a fun read with a twist. I know some LARPers too :)
Well, I never knew the word or it b4. But it seems like fun, next to hippies and such...I am hippie at heart.
Well written, amazing twist, excellent challenge entry!!
I was the same as Donna, wondering where it was headed. Very funny twist, thank goodness!
Haha! What a twist!!! This is made me laugh out loud!! Thanks for a great read, JBaz!
That was soooo not where I thought this was headed Jason!! Great twist!!
This is hilarious. It looks so fun and so not fun!
A wonderfully relieving and hilarious twist!! Brilliant as always, Jason! :)
I guess there are worse things to be embarrassed about. Fun twist on the challenge, Jason! Glad I wasn’t drinking when I read this like LC!
So sorry but I need some context please. What is LARP? 😅😅
Sick 😂😂
I laughed out loud in the office at the last word, Jason! So good!
What a unique Acoustic poem for the Challenge, bravo 👏🏽
haha. Well done!
This made me laugh! I can definitely relate! I teased my daughter for her role-playing game, but she quickly turned the tables and reminded me that I play Fantasy Football. That Silenced me! lol Clever Acrostic, Jason!
What a clever twist! I'm in complete agreement with your thoughts on LARPers, too! Great job on this one!
Bahahaha!! This was a wonderful and very welcomed shot of humor into my afternoon reading :) Good one!
I laughed and snorted my drink out of my nose! Oh the SHAME 🤣🤣🤣
