0.000 HBDIrreverent, Sociopathic Writing Prompt Generator with a Sense of Humor and Strange Interests
Whenever I go to the writing prompt generator to get a prompt, I can't stop playing around with it instead of writing. I'm talking about "Seventh Sanctum", the writing prompt generator found here http://www.seventhsanctum.com/generate.php?Genname=writeprompt If it were a person, I'd describe it as an irreverent sociopath with a dry and twisted sense of humor, and an unswerving interest in occult conspiracies. Here's some evidence: **"Oh religion . . . time to break.** **"Oh ignorance . . . time to torture."** **"The girl will be screaming all day, which was really amazing."** **"My life is almost exactly like the story of Oliver Twist, only bloodier, which is awesome."** By the way, it spits out a lot of these, "my life is like..." prompts. Here were some of my favorites: **"If my life gets any more like the legend of Sparticus I'm going to become an airline pilot."** *This is just...wow. You'd have to be a creative genius to pull this one off.* **"My life is basically the legend of the Wandering Jew, only I am more ugly than you'd expect."** *I thought this was an anti-semitic joke, didn't know he was a real thing.* **"My life is just like the story of the Odyssey, only funnier, which is horrible."** *Dunno, I think I could stomach a comedical remake of the Odyssey.* **"My life is essentially the legend of Orion, except I'm a manager."** *Could be interesting, sounds like the opening line of a dark comedy.* **"My life is basically the story of Rumplestiltskin, only sexier."** *hahaha I actually LOLed at this one* Sometimes it does make mistakes though. At least I assume they're mistakes: **"Many people believe we survived the biological war by hiding his factory."** *Really? I would've thought that hiding* in *the factory would be more useful." **"Getting old is my business partner, war is my business partner."** *Which is it? Or are getting old, war and you all partners? Confused...* **"I used to be a life support technician, with my restaurants and my restaurants."** *I suppose the repetition could be for effect, but I can't tell what that would be." **This is a tale about cruelty, alchoholism, and a famine--and it's a story not worth telling.** *Not sure if that's a challenge or what?* There's also a "what if" generator that displays its inability to stray from what seems to be a constant preoccupation: **...the sinking of Atlantis involved psychics?** *This one's true.* **...Mao Tse Tung was connected to Benedict Arnold by a secret society?** *This one's also true.* **...Alexander Bell, Alfred Nobel, and Prince Charles were connected by a secret society?** *This one's definitely true.* **...today's most commonplace technology was mind control?** *This one's true if you're in Hollywood.* **...the fall of Satan involved mind control?** **...the fall of Satan involved secret science?** **...the fall of Satan involved occult arts?** **...the fall of Satan involved a secret society?** **...the fall of Satan had never happened?** *Seriously, you would not believe how much this one comes up.* And here are two random ones that I could find images for. It's not that I was lazy. I mean you try to find an image of Spartacus piloting a plane or a bloody Oliver Twist. **"I used to be a terrorist, with my banks and my temples, and it is awesome."** *Terrorist with bank and temples...Are you sure you don't mean "central banker"?* https://c1.staticflickr.com/8/7426/10547141054_efb3dd8fc5_b.jpg **"I was a starshp salesperson, until the economic collapse."** *So the Federal Reserve is still around in the future huh? That sucks.* https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ae/Star_Trek_Motorcycle.2.jpg
