Three Word Thursday #47
It is that time of the week. One I look forward to a great deal. And by the way Quilly, mahalo for hosting Three Word Thursday. It’s a blast and I can’t tell you how much I enjoy it. Each week Quilly at Quintessentially Quilly gives us three words to compose a story. You can get further instructions here or you can click the picture above.
eructate, v. – belch
noctambule, v. sleepwalk
coxcomb, n. a conceited, foolish dandy; pretentious
The door burst opened and in came Yelleka. Poor old BobbyEarl. He let out the biggest eructate from the shock of his sister entering and turned red as a beat.
“You three thought that you could fool me? You thought I didn’t know what was going on?” she hollered at them. Looking down at the three of them made it seem, yet again, that they were all in a noctambule trance she thought.
“What do you mean?” JerriLynn said with a coxcomb tone.
“Don’t give me that attitude JerryiLynn” she spat back. “I’ve been listening to the three of you for years now. I’ve planted listening devices all over the place. You two twins are the most evil people I know and you drag poor BobbyEarl into every one of your schemes” she retorted.
“Well we had to think of something to throw you off the trail of what we were really doing” BettySue said innocently “So we came up with the plan that JerriLynn would think that I tarnished my Strawberries and you would handle the case. It would be just long enough for the testing to be done” she continued.
“We signed a confidentiality agreement Yelleka” JerriLynn chimed in. “We couldn’t let anyone know and were afraid that if you got wind of this you would contact them and then we wouldn’t get our money. And it’s a lot of money.”
“Who do you think contacted the company and had them offer you the idea of becoming testers for them?” Yelleka asked.
Yelleka had put them through yet another test and they failed miserably as usual. When would they learn they could trust their eldest sister with anything she wondered. Maybe one day! She turned and stormed out of the room dropping a piece of paper on her way out:
New Toilet Paper in the making. Volunteers needed. Call 1-888-RUBHINY
Hey, it’s only my opinion.
A Hui Hou
Ah, to trust not-you haven’t been speaking to my family have you Thom? Great ending.

Thank you. Yeah I gave them a ring to help me with this ending LOL Well I’m sorry to hear that you don’t like this. I think once you get use to it you will and if not, I dunno what to tell you but to sit back, relax, enjoy the ride and wait until I get bored with this one LOL
That is a GEM!
Your punch line…BRILLIANT!
You do know you are a very prolific writer don’t you?
Happy Thursday!

Well thank you my friend. I don’t know how prolific really but I do thank you
OMG that 1-800 number! Your characters are almost as twisted as you are.

LOL I was going to do something with our infamous planet but couldn’t make it work LOL Glad you enjoyed
I learned all my twistedness from you LOL
Well you inspire the twistedness in me. We should work on a project together someday — it wouldn’t be a collaboration so much as an Unholy Alliance, but…hey let’s do it LOL
Oh sister if it doesn’t include holes forget it. The more orifices the better I always say.
phew! now i wonder who is more twisted – your characters or you
great work – of course
