Hey Inconsiderate Shithead – Turn that shit off. It is 7:45 in the morning and you are playing fucking candy crush with your sound on and no headphones. Some of us just want a quiet morning commute without having to be part of your inane obsession. The girl in front of me looks like she…

Summery
Beautiful calf-length summer dress, airy with a circle dash pattern that looks abstractly like lollipops. Strappy, three inch, medium brown leather sandals with three flowers on the top of the shoe. A Vera Bradley-esque purse in her lap, candy crush on her phone. A silver crucifix around her neck. Short, wavy auburn hair in a…

Welcome back to the top 30 reasons for Normals to not date Supers. I have been chatting with my coworkers about this series and one helpfully gave me some examples to back up future points. Also, let me know if you have any reasons to add to the list, or examples to back up posted…
Pressed Pants
Khaki pants, a little tight in the thigh, pressed and currently unwrinkled. His right pocket appears to have his wallet in it and his left his keys. Black dress socks, fawn colored leather loafers with obvious stitching. Dark navy blue t-shirt with epaulets and a collar. Two of the three buttons are undone and dark…
#29 – Jealousy
I don’t know if I mentioned this in the first post, but the 30 Reasons Not to Date a Superhero(ine) are meant to be reasons why NON-SUPERS shouldn’t date supers, if that wasn’t obvious. This is a humor piece and not meant to offend or discriminate against superhero(in)es. Superhero(in)es deserve love, too. [In no particular…
Dear My Future Child[ren]
Dear My Future Child[ren], I love you. I am twenty-five years old and I have no idea when I will meet you. I am twenty-five and have no intention of having children any time soon, but I love you so much right now, I needed to write and tell you. It sounds insane, but it’s…
Runner
He’s leaning forward like a runner at the start line. Ready to bolt, right hand braced on his leg, left elbow propped on the other, his chin in his hand. He’s wearing big, clunky work boots that would make running difficult. A red backpack and canon camera hang off one arm. Deep-set eyes in a…
Sensible
You can tell a true office worker, who has been working in the business a while by her shoes. She’s smart and despite her pretty, flattering dress and matching jewelry, her feet are clad in practical running shoes with cute rainbow striped socks. Her sensible or maybe sexy heels are tucked away either in the…
Solitary
Bright, florescent pink running shoes and it looks like he’s not wearing socks, but maybe just really really low cut peds. Dark grey sweatpant shorts with a white drawstring. The exposed legs between sneakers and shorts are covered in long, dark hair. He’s wearing a body armor long sleeved shirt with the sleeves pushed up….
Nap Time Corner
That corner over there is the nap time corner. Four people with their eyes closed trying to catch a few more moments of rest before they have to rush rush rush around all day. Maybe one of them is actually heading home having worked all night and is pre-empting sleep, giving hirself a little preview…
Dear Bitchy Prudes
Dear Bitchy Prudes, It’s none of your damn business if my breasts “pop” out of my dress. I do not appreciate your concern and I do not need it. I know my limits and I very rarely exceed them. If my boobs do happen to “pop” out – too fucking bad. It’s not like…
Thinking
What is she thinking about, biting her lip like that? What is playing in her headphones? Her green-blue eyes flick back and forth as she watches things flash by outside. She leans on the bar with one hand, standing on one foot, her other foot resting on its toe. Brown leather boots with a slight…
