But I had so hoped for a good Breanne-Bashing -- I had never been on the receiving end of one of those before -- and was so happy to get one! Thanks, Brea!
You’re welcome. If I had known it was you, I would have really blasted you.
The really funny thing is that, even when you’re
trying to write a bad script, you couldn’t bring yourself to format it incorrectly -- haha! Except for the candy picture, the format is impeccable.

Haha! You bastard! Now that I know who this is, I might go back to my review and throw in some additional evil comments.

Lmao i kinda feel a little bad for giving a negative review at points but i suppose that the ambiguity is what this competition is about. You're right Bert, would love to see Old Man Crim and Teddy interact. That would be a script. Thanx, Robert.

I would have loved to see the Chucky doll come to the door and bite a big hunk out of Crim's leg.

Hi "dirty old man" Bert
I could perfectly picture sitting behind your computer and giggling as you were typing.
Anyway, you could have more underlined the milk if it had been mixed with Crim's own liquid as a cake ingredient. You once told me I was nuts, but now I think we're two of the kind.
Anyway I had fun. Good job.

Was there really no-one else that assumed this was Bert? He's the first one I thought of.

I happened to be in a mood to enjoy this. Another day I might not have been.
And another day I might not have written it....
Was there really no-one else that assumed this was Bert?
Higgs and maybe 1 or 2 others -- but I really have no idea how -- and I am still deciding whether to be complimented or offended....
...but now I think we're two of the kind.
Your alternate ending for "Paramour's" still raises a shudder when I think of it....
Welcome back from your vacation, and thanks for the look. This OWE turned out to be particularly fun, I think.

Wow! This was certainly repulsive. What's far more shocking is that this is a Bert Newcomer script. It certainly doesn't feel like one. I would never have guessed. Anyway, I don't think I liked this one. Technically speaking, it's very well-written. It's descriptive and correctly formatted but I don't think it's much of a horror story, just a guy handing out urine-soaked candies to unsuspecting kids. But you already know that, of course
.
All in all, I don't think this script was meant to be liked and I didn't like it so... good job?

Haha! Another victim!
As usual, James, your assessment of my intent is spot on.
How do you do that so often?

Liked the way you focused on the visuals instead of putting in any dialogue which would have been unneccessary. By far the sickest and well written entry in the contest that I've read so far.

Bert, Nice one here. Had enough time to read a three pager. I woulda liked a little motivation on Crims part. Maybe the kids smasked his pumpkins passed two Halloweens. Also, Would've like to see a little research done as far as what he could drink to increase the potency of his urine. Alot of beer pretty much turns it into water. Believe me, I've scene this happen with me own eyes. All in all, frickin disgusting. Wish Screenrider were around to read this one. Love the Tootsie Rolls at the end. James

Bert, This is a one joke script, and I liked the joke. Deviant humor trumps motivation for a deliciously twisted trio of pages. It's ironical you chose a turd like candy to dip in urine, its the double whammy. This was good unclean fun, then again, I'm not a Tootsie Roll fan. =p Regards, E.D.

...one of these days I'd like to take a big hot steaming turd on one of your scripts...
And you missed your chance haha.
I cringed when I saw this one go up as SotD -- and I always shake my head when somebody actually likes it.
Not that I do not appreciate the comments, of course, but this script was written to be despised.
It was (perhaps) the first OWC pisstake.*
Also, Would've like to see a little research done as far as what he could drink to increase the potency of his urine.
What a crazy comment haha. Are you drinking now?
Wish Screenrider were around to read this one.
I had not even thought of that...me, too, now that you mention it.

A nice, succinct turn of a phrase. Like it. Thanks guys!

Hey Bert -
Back to stalking your scripts. Only got a few more to go. Couldn't resist this one, especially when you describe it in your list with a "please don't read this one" description.
You were right.
Ew.
But it's short! (And for what it's worth, the descriptions of Crim at the beginning are nice.)

Disclaimers are there for a reason haha.
I actually enjoy the thread for this one more than the actual story -- which is really the primary reason I haven't pulled it down and burned it.
Thanks for "stalking" this one, wonks, but perhaps some things are better left buried....
