Yeah, I'm the same way. Years ago, my grandmother told me, "You must be pretty mean to be able to eat all that hot stuff." The truth of the matter is that I can be pretty mean and sometimes don't realize it until afterward. Those Dynamitas are kinda like that saying for Pringles, "Once you pop, you can't stop" or something like that. Once that bag of Dynamitas gets opened, I can't stop eating them. It's like you'll be in the middle of eating a bag of chips but don't realize until the last minute, that you ate the entire bag.

Oh! I've had those except the brand I've had was Doritos Dynamitas. As spicy as they are, I can't seem to stop eating them once they've been bought. They're addicting.
-
Actually, no I never had them.
-
Sometimes as a snack, I'll eat Flamin' Hot Cheetos or Fries. It will make your nose run. There's also Spicy Hot Ramen Noodles, that can be instantly made in a cup or bowl.

Depending on what I'm eating, I will pour Cayenne Pepper into my food for sinuses. For lunch, I made a Jalopena Tuna Sandwich earlier.

I really wish I had some hot and spicy food right now to nurse this sinus headache. We're getting another storm tonight.

Leftover Homemade Chicken Alfredo Pasta, shrimp, and cabbage followed by Hot Lemonade was what I had a while ago.

What Type(s) Of Stories Do You Write?
PurgatoryGirl replied to PurgatoryGirl's topic in Arts, Literature & Music
Your stories sound like they would be branded as Fantasy Fiction for the adult demographic. Also, if you plan to submit them to publishing companies, it is best not to post your stories online. They would be considered "previously published" and you will have a much harder time trying to have them published. Publishing excerpts are fine online, but you should keep the full story offline, if you want your work traditionally published. The fact that there are people pirating and plagiarizing authors' work makes it worse.- 52 replies

A while ago, I checked the calendar and noticed that it said the full moon is tonight. Therefore, we can expect to see some crazy shit happen both in real life and cyber space. It actually started to make me think twice and question, if the full moon took early possession over me this past weekend. Even though I never went into full Cujo Mode on anyone here, I'm sorry if I scared other posters away. There are those, who are skeptics but the moon energy can be some powerful energy. Also, full moons and hot tempers like mine don't mix well. It's like pouring gasoline on an already lit fire.

More recently, I watched a YouTube vlog by a self-published Young Adult author. She said that the New Adult demographic never fully took off. When you really pay attention to the advertising for age demographics, Adult and Young Adult are the most popular. There aren't too many of us, who write novels and other types of stories about characters, that really ARE young adults between 18 to 20-something years old.- 52 replies

They sell tomales in a can at our local grocery stores. Personally, I would prefer to eat them homemade or at a restaurant.

For those, who actually write their own stories and NOT Fan Fiction, what type of stories do you write? Do you have a certain genre(s) or sub-genre(s) your work falls under? Even though some of my stories are bound, they are unpublished. It is probably no surprise given my personal interests that I write mostly Horror/Thriller Short Stories. Although, I did write at least 1 story over the last 6 years that would most likely be considered Realistic Fiction. Lately, I'm starting to think that my short stories have the ability to cross genres. When saying that, I believe it is possible for them to be Psychological Thriller as well as Horror at the same time. Also, they would most likely be considered "New Adult." New Adult Fiction typically has characters in their late teens to mid-20's, if memory serves me right. The New Adult label sounds ridiculous to me. What is more ridiculous is that the Young Adult label on books is meant for teenagers. That never made any sense to me, but whatever. So, what about your work?

Now, I'm craving Homemade Lasagna.
-
Sometimes if there is hardly anything to eat for lunch in our pantries, I will eat canned Tomales from Hormel.
-
Ah, I see.
-
That's like a poor person's lunch at work.

Aw man, you got me all excited for nothing. I thought it was homemade.

This played during the ending credits for Stir Of Echoes but the song was released before then.

Before the days of Michelle Branch, Kelly Clarkson, and Taylor Swift, there was Alanis.

Windows 10 is so annoying. That software annoys me so much, I had to grab 1 of my other laptops, that has Windows 7 in it to see what's on the screen. Having standard speed Internet also doesn't help.

Yeah, "Possession" was supposedly a song about her stalker. I think they said she collected all his letters and turned those letters into her song.
