The characters in the story I have been working on have been watching the Olympics, and now they want to stage a big closing ceremony. NO! I told them. NO. This is not that kind of story!
A web site posting for the ages!
Watching the Olympics, and I am getting really tired of things being described as “a performance for the ages.” For mercy’s sake, FIND A NEW CLICHE, commentators. I beg you.
I am going to start describing EVERYTHING as being ‘for the ages.’ Tonight, I am going to sleep for the ages, then wake up and drink a cup of coffee for the ages.
If I am going to sleep for the ages, I’d better set an alarm clock, just in case.
