The judges

Coming up with a theme for a challenge can be difficult

By Marianne LeePublished about 8 hours ago 1 min read

The judges got together to come up with the best theme for a challenge.

Ideas started flying out - fast and slow - like the way time feels like on the clock.

Everyone had a lot to say except for one person who just sat there unhinged.

People would ask for input but he would look away with his mouth completely locked.

He seemed so different from his usual self - like he had his personality rearranged.

He didn’t seem intoxicated but he was rubbing his hands so much it looked like it hurt a lot.

Everyone got worried but this made him act more strange.

He slowly opened his mouth and said: “Wake up, everyone! You can’t be sleeping during a Zoom call. This is such a shock.”

For Fun
