Author has written 2 stories for Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and Inheritance Cycle. I currently have two stories up but plan on writing more later. Please read and review, because I want to know if anyone likes my stories or if there should be a law against me writing fanfictions. The Lost Huntress has 13 chapters up, and The New Riders has 10 chapters up. In case you needed proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual labels on consumer goods. On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. (Oops) On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." (How do you use regular soap?) On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (Suggestion? Crazy Idea Time!) On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down." (Little late for that!) On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating." (Aw! I wanted it to be cold!) On Boot's Children Cough Medicine: "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication." (Can I drive before I take it?) On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (Thanks, that really narrowed it down) On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (Which is...) On Sunsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (That would be why I bought it) On a package of pasta after the cooking instructions: "Put on fork and eat." On a can of bug spray: “Harmful to bees”. On a TV remote control: “Not dish washer safe”. (But its dirty!) A New Zealand insect spray: "Not tested on animals." A VCR box says: "Instructional video on hooking up your VCR included." (Um... How do i watch it?) A can of self-defense pepper spray: "May irritate eyes." (it takes a real rocket scientist to figure that one out) A dishwasher carries this warning: "Do not allow children to play in the dishwasher." A popular manufactured fireplace log: "Caution - Risk of Fire." (Isn't that the point?) A rubber ball toy: "Choking hazard: This toy is a small ball." (Thank you, I'm not blind) A baby stroller: "Remove child before folding." (Oh, so that's why it's not folding!) A pair of shin guards manufactured for bicyclists: "Shin pads cannot protect any part of the body they do not cover." A Fruit Roll-Up snack: "Remove plastic before eating." (But that adds the extra flavor) A Curling Iron: "For external use only!" A Sunshield for a car: "Do not drive with Sunshield in place." (So that's why I couldn't see!) A Rock Garden Set: "Eating rocks may break your teeth." A Microwave Oven: "Do not use for drying pets." A 15cm by 15cm by 12cm bag: "Do not climb inside bag and zip it up as this will result in injury or death." A package of Silly Putty: "Do not use as ear plugs." On a Boeing 757: "Warning fragile do not drop." (Now how would I do that?) On an iron: "Do not iron clothes while wearing them." On a Superman costume: "Wearing this costume doesn't give you the ability to fly." A hammer: "May be harmful if swallowed." A computer mouse: "Do not dangle by cord or throw at co-workers." On sleeping pills: "May cause drowsiness." (Seriously!?!) On a package of Bottle Rockets: "Do not put in mouth." On a muffin: "Remove wrapper, open mouth, insert muffin, eat." Antenna: "Do not throw at spouse." (But they annoy me) On dog medicine: "Do not drive or operate machinery after taking this medicine." (But he's normally such a good driver) On cotton sweater: "Machine wash warm, inside out...Or give it to your wife, It's her job!" On infant's bathtub: "Do not throw the baby out with the bath water." On Magic 8 Ball: "Not for use as a home pregnancy test." On a Piano: "Harmful or fatal if swallowed." On a microscope: "Objects seen are smaller and less alarming then they appear." On hair coloring: "Do not use as ice cream topping." On a floodlight: "This floodlight can illuminate large areas even in the dark." (Wow lights work at night? Seriously?) On a Land Mine: "DO NOT EAT" On Truck: "Do not attempt to drive under, over, or through this truck. If you should choose to ignore this warning, good luck and have fun!" On Fish Tank: "Additional purchase idea-Fish" Facts Of Life. Being mature is overrated. Being weird is like being normal, only better. I'm not clumsy! The floor just hates me. I didn't trip! I tackled the floor! Boys are like lava lamps, fun to watch but not too bright. One day, we will look back on this, laugh nervously, and change the subject. It takes 42 muscles to frown, 28 to smile and only 4 to reach out and slap someone. I believe you should live each day as if it is your last, which is why I don't have any clean laundry because, come on, who wants to wash clothes on the last day of their life? As you make your way through this hectic world of ours, set aside a few minutes each day. At the end of the year, you'll have a couple of days saved up. Silence is golden, duct tape is silver. When life gives you lemons, make grape juice, then watch the world wonder how you did it. Life is like a pack of gum . . . I've yet to figure out why. Be insane . . . because well behaved girls never made history. If your name is Mr.Crunch, and you joined the Navy, would you eventually be Captain Crunch? My knight in shining armor turned out to be a loser in aluminum foil. Your weirdness is creeping my imaginary friend out. To the world, you are just one person, but to one person, you are the world. One day your prince will come. Mine? Oh he took a wrong turn, got lost, and is too stubborn to ask for directions. It’s always the last place you look. Of course it is, why would I keep looking after I’ve found it? Person #1: Happiness is just around the corner! Person #2: Too bad the world is round! Growing old is mandatory . . . growing up is optional . . . We fall for stupid boys, we make lots of dumb mistakes, we like to act stupid, talk really fast, and laugh really loud. But we teenage girls are good at 2 things: Staying Strong, and Being Ourselves. Life was so simple when boys had cooties! Mothers of teens know why some animals eat their young. I'm not random, I just have many thougt- OH! A SQUIRREL! If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you. If all else fails, destroy all evidence that you tried. I don't suffer from insanity - I enjoy every minute of it. Two wrongs don't make a right, but they make a good excuse. Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door. The person who smiles when things go wrong has found someone to blame it on. Better to stay silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt. Never argue with an idiot. They'll just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. I wondered why the Frisbee was getting bigger, then it hit me. Normal people scare me...but not as much as I scare them. Even if the voices aren't real, they have some good ideas If I had any dignity that would have been humiliating. Sanity? I never had such a useless thing to begin with! That which does not kill me had better run pretty dang fast. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back Stupidity killed the cat. Curiosity was framed. A wise man once said, "Ask a girl." When in doubt, push random buttons! Fighting is mind over matter. I don't mind, and you don't matter When you talk to God, that's religion. When God talks to you, that's psychotic. You wanna know why God created man before woman? Every masterpiece needs a rough draft! There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Of course, it's usually an oncoming express train. Last night I was looking up at the stars when suddenly I wondered..."Dude, where the heck's my ceiling?" There are three kinds of people. Those who learn by reading, a few who learn by observation, and the rest who have to test the electric fence for themselves. They say guns don't kill people; people do. Well, I think guns help. I mean, if you just stood there and yelled 'BANG!' I don't think you'd kill many people... Just when I think you've said the stupidest thing ever you just keep on talking You know, you do this annoying thing where you open your mouth and then these things you call words come out. Yeah like that. Stop it. He who laughs last thinks slowest An idiot is a 44th floor window washer who steps back to admire his work I'm not cynical, everything just sucks I respect your opinion, I just think it's stupid It's not denial. I’m just selective about the reality I accept. They say hard work never hurts anybody, but why take the chance. Why be difficult, when with just a little bit of effort, you can be impossible? Ask me no questions and I’ll tell you no lies Everyone has a photographic memory, some just don't have film. A clear conscience is usually a sign of memory loss. There are no stupid questions, just a lot of inquisitive idiots. The secret to success is sincerity. Once you can fake that you’re good I'm not as dumb as you look The newscaster is the person who says "Good evening" and then tells you why it's not. We live in an age where pizza gets to your house before the police If you don't like the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk. Sarcasm is one more service we offer. Hate is just a special kind of love we give to people who suck. I used to have super powers, but then my therapist took them away. They say the truth will set you free. Then why is it every time I tell the truth, I get sent to my room? Some people are like slinkies. They seem to have no purpose, but they still bring you a smile when you push them down the stairs. Keep smiling; it makes people wonder what you're up to Love your enemies. It gets them really confused. I'm not a complete idiot.
