I need to write a story on Deception for English. So I'm calling on Orgers for ideas.

Right now, I got an idea for a fairly typical story based on a love-affair/unfaithful partner...but I want something more..

Hit me with your ideas (not literally) and, depending on your sex, I'll hug or kiss you. Or both.

What about a prankster 'creator' trapping billions of self-aware organisms inside a 3D illusion of true reality?

Mmmm...maybe far-fetched, I agree.

Number23 said:

I still like it, but to be on the safe side, I'll stick with extra marital sex.

Spookymuffin said:

It's probably for the best.

1. "The Elephant's Cock"

The heartwarming story of an elephant who disguises himself as a female Chicken in order to gain the affection of a male Cock.

2. "The Hairy Beaver"

The heartwarming story of a female beaver who wears a fake moustache and beard, thereby disguising herself as a male beaver, in order to gain the affection of another male beaver.

3. "The Pair of Enormous Melons"

The heartwarming story of a man who has promised his date a fine pudding of Grapefruit Souffle - his date hates to eat anything buy grapefruit. While shopping, however, the grapefruits have all been sold out; all that is left to buy are a pair of enormous melons.

Can he whip up a decent pudding and deceive his date? only Spookymuffin's writing dexterities will provide the answer...

Try to write a story about the deception of the media. How they want you to think you need to be thin. Make a tie to huge manufacurers that need to push their products. Make it a modern dat 1984 (Big Brother).

Make the lead character sing a song called "Papa can you hear me?" to attract the attention of gay people from all around.

Very nice idea.

How would you start something like that though. This is fictional writing by the way.

I'd definitely go with media deception. From image, to race, money, goverment, etc... all is covered. You should be able to right a book on that topic.

Spookymuffin said:

How many words?

Well, if you want to go with extramartial affairs, then I have some ideas.....

1.) The story of a young girl who meets an older man with money. He treats her well, but very sheltered. She is living the good life in his beautiful penthouse apartment overlooking Central Park, she has all the latest fashions.....all the money she ever needed. Then, she finds out her "SugarDaddy" has a child with another woman! Not only that, he is still sleeping with the other woman and she is expecting another!! Oh, the horror.....

Or....

2.) The story of a seemingly perfect couple in suburbia. Husband is well respected in the community, wife is beautiful and children go the most prestigious school in the state. However, things begin to fall apart when the wife's identical twin sister moves in. He's always been unable to tell them apart . Wife tells husband that her sister is having trouble with her husband, so they separated and she had no place else to go. Husband believes that sister-in-law is trouble, but when she suddenly disappears, he begins to worry. Wife tells him not to worry, she is a grown woman and she will take care of herself.....But then, wife begins to act strange.....Husband wonders what the hell is going on with his wife. Then, he begins to question whether or not she is indeed his wife!! In the end, sister had gambling problems and owed A LOT of money....So, she came to town, killed her twin sister and takes over her identity!

Man, I shouldn't be giving this stuff away.....I should write a novel or something

Smooches;)

Let's see...
Deception, media.
We need something shocking.
What about a bug, a real one, flying into the oval office, hearing a conversation between the president and his advisors. They talk about....

I know alot of books like this! THey are cllaed romance books and sell very well! On tv we call them soaps. If your mind came up with this check up on Norah Roberts.

No word limit.

Here's an unedited, first thoughts thing of what I've written so far:

It was late, and he was drunk. He could think of no other excuse to tell his wife. Why had he slept with her? Lust? He would like to think so; that or human instinct. But he had felt something else and was afraid it was love. That night was not like any normal one night stand; the morning after he had taken the time to lie with her and enjoy her presence. He had watched her asleep, admiring her beauty. He had made her coffee; something he had not even done with his wife for well over four years. The truth was, he realised, that he had fallen out of love with his wife, and in love with this woman.
Her name was Jane; she was the complete opposite of his wife (perhaps that was why she was so appealing). She worked in a Bar five minutes drive from his house. He met her two days ago. His day had been a nightmare; his principle witness for possibly one of the most important cases in his career was contemplating withdrawing from her court appearance. She had seen some movie in which each witness to a crime was murdered by a hitman and it had scared her. On his way back from work he decided he would visit a bar and have a drink for a little stress relief. He stayed longer than he would have liked and ended up drunk. Jane approached him. They chatted, or rather she chatted, he mumbled.

Thanks for your opinion Huey, though I don't remember asking for it. SpookyMuffin didn't specify anything but Deception, so I gave my ideas. If all youcould come up with is "Deception of the Media".....which you can hear about on "20/20", "Dateline" and anything pertaining to teenage girls and how they think they have to be thin because of what theysee on TV and in magazines....Then maybe you should try being more original.....

Smooches;)

Is Jane the hitman?

I don't need to do this, I've done my coursework for english
It's like a compulsory needless piece of work

What a shame.

Finished it. Thanks every one.

Spookymuffin said:

Post it then!

Unless it's long, if so don't bother. You'll find most of us too lazy to read it.

We could title it for you! I say it should be called "Jane the Hitman"

Just turn in a plagiarized copy of Edgar Allan Poe's The Gold Bug, only call it The Silver Bug, and then at the very end, reveal the "deception" that you pulled on your teacher!

You'll at least get points for creativity!

Well, if you don't want reactions, don't post on a public board.....

Also, my reactions were meant in a nice way. It's just that my teacher's just wanted something MORE than standard stuff. I also did not realise it had to be as short as it turned out (Spooks had it finished in like 20 minutes). Our essays had to be at least 800 words....
Anyways. See you around.
