I was born to be late to everything. According to my mom, I was late to my own birthday (due on the 5th, popped out two minutes past midnight on the 6th). Hell, I was late to my own Steemit anniversary,

I’d always found idioms weird. Moreso when I found a game where I was supposed to match up idioms with their conflicting counterparts as a kid. You see, I always figured idioms were written by all-knowing

Quick question: Where are you right now? I’m guessing you’re at home. If you’re not at home, then by all means, go home. Leave work, school, whatever, and just go home. I’m trying to prove a point. Yeah

I have no idea how to write a movie review. But all the time when I was watching Batman Ninja, I knew that I would kick myself silly if I didn’t write something about it. So without further ado, here’s

We have a bathroom at home. It's an ugly little thing, always had roaches in it. We normally never use it (it's the guest bathroom, in a home full of largely antisocial people), but when you take “rushing

"The only beard better than a full grey beard is a half beard." My mother was taking a sip from her drink when she coughed again. I wasn’t sure if it was because of what I said, or what we were

“It’s just a dumb name, don’t let it bother you”. I was standing in a Chinese shop, half unsure of whether I should get Chinese or just pretend to have plans to cook then get pizza later. Some drunk asshole

All Ye Randy Nigerians, hearken to me.  @mimy is holding a contest. There's prizes to be won, courtesy of @ehiboss and many other Steemians, laughs to be had, and shame to be shamed.  If you

“Here, this’ll help”. She handed me a mug, filled to the brim with what I assume was coffee. Her breath stank of tobacco and alcohol (or was that just her?), and she seemed like she had her shit together

“All of this just makes me sick” I feigned being jolted from near slumber, but it was rather poor acting. Everyone in the room knew my insomnia will keep me up till I’m waking them to turn off their alarms.

I need more male friends. I sat at a round table discussion with my not male friends, being an unwilling party in the latest “men are scum” dance. I did my best to zone out and yet look supportive, while

I'd write you a lullaby, If my voice is too coarse, Bringing these strings and drums, Roaring to life with my pen. I'd grace your silk sheets, With the ink of my words. I'd let my heartbeat, Lull you to

He had no idea who I was. I didn't bring any treats. I kept calling him a joke cos he was basically a living, breathing, goof ball.  It all meant nothing to him.  Once he was certain I wasn't

Ferocious caterpillar devours defenseless leaf.  I ran into this when I was coming back from a rather stressful day. After taking the shot I lifted the caterpillar off and put it on a different plant.

People say that dogs are some of the purest animals on earth. Ergo, they should have the purest emotions. The only feeling stronger than seeing the joy of a happy dog, is the grief that engulfs you when

You once were someone I could dignify (ah, ah) A guiding force, in which I thought I could rely I watched as you began to metamorphosize (ah) Can't face it anymore, it's eating me alive … You are forever

Slit open my heart,  Exhume bitterness and hate, Seal it with your lips. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kisses in the rain, God's shower of approval, Getting twice as wet ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So...

I walked down the lonely road back to my house by 2pm. Lectures had just ended, and I'd have stayed longer but I didn't know anyone yet. I had been on campus for only a week now, and most of the time I
