Now everyone pat me on the back and tell me how clever I am!

After years of imprisonment under the Nazi concentration camp, I cried in joy when the Allied troops came to liberate here.

Then they pointed to the pink triangle on my shirt and shoved me back in the camp.

This is something I actually posted in the Two Sentence Horror subreddit and it almost got 5K likes.

I'm a (socialist) professional writer serializing a WWII alternate history webnovel.

Has anyone ever found it odd that there are times we wake up with no memory of dreams?

I pressed the button and waited for the device to tell me how many years I had left.

The device had gone through clinical testing and was proven to be extremely accurate but, for some reason, when it was my turn the device couldn't give me an answer...

Akira Toriyama (April 5 1955 - March 1, 2024).

"You know how, in video games, if you try to rest when there are enemies nearby, the game won't let you because 'it's not safe'? Think about the last time you couldn't sleep at night."

(I'd love to take credit for this one, but I can't. I saw it on Facebook some time ago and it stuck with me)

Please be very careful on public transportation, especially with how diseases spread. My brother caught something on the subway, and now he's starting to look less and less human.

bump?

Last summer, i cleaned the dolls people practice CPR on.

Some of them had started breathing again.

My sewing skills were getting better every day. A few more weeks, and not even the police would be able to tell I wasn't really 13.

Despite all our fear, the extraterrestrials that arrived on Earth were peaceful explorers. Too bad there wasn't a vaccine for what came with them.

Mankind was very disappointed when they discovered they were actually alone in the universe. Then they discovered why.

Whatever your favourite work is, there is a Vocal Minority that considers it the Worst. Whatever. Ever!.

I remember the first time I tried pegging. The surgery after to get all of me back inside wasn't fun.

I remember the last time my mother came to visit the family. All these years later I still wonder why she let me be the only one to live.

I asked Siri to remind me of today's date. I needed to finish engraving my wife's headstone.

Disgusted, but not surprised

"It's a beautiful baby boy, Madam," said the midwife. "And here is the seasoning."

When I woke up in the middle of the night I was startled to see an inhuman monster through the window. Then I remembered my room had no windows, only a mirror.

"If there's problems, there's simple solutions."

I'm always down for being sexually adventurous. I...swear he was alive when I wrapped my hands around his throat.

Let's go pick up some dates. I brought the shovels.

If I had a nickel for every time my girlfriend cheated on me, I'd be stinking rich. Just kidding, I killed her because she didn't mean anything to me anyway.

When the shark pulled her around side to side, thrashing against the surface as it tore her side open, she was surprised to find that her consciousness was fading away as her vision turned hazy white from the spray of the sea.

Then the ocean went still as her body was dragged towards darkness and everything faded to nothingness.
