I laughed at the end. Two things- the first, aesthetically (and if you have the space to do so) I’d suggest adding spaces between the paragraphs to make it easier to read. Second, the big paragraph near the end (t like it but when I realized that you did a good job of capturing the last seconds of a frenemy-ship? It grew on me. So, nice job all around.

Thanks. The formatting is a good idea, but I don’t think I have the space. I usually push my character count to the absolute limit.

You can pick up the extra characters if you shorten HAAGHTHLBFFT… You don’t need that many characters to convey death by poison.

Loved it. Made perfect sense, and exactly what a lot of us would do to this sort of “friend” if the end were that close. Fun and funny stuff. Great entry to the challenge.

That was a good laugh :)

I second the formatting suggestion and the laugh at the end. All in all, very well done.

nice..I was expecting the world to end at the end! But nice twist!

P.S. I have to read the terms of the challenge yet.

Well, this is a nice surprise.

Haha I like it. The end is extremely nigh and we still have petty revenge, outstanding.

I also feel like your last comment could be a nice title as well, Memento

This is terrific! I think I made the same HAAGHTHLBFFT noise that steven made when i got to the punch line — but laughing noise, not a death-by-poison noise :)

LOVE IT! Didn’t expect the ending at all. It made me laugh out loud. For what it’s worth, you do have the count left to add paragraph spacing if you want to. (I’m nerdy enough to have checked!)
