Certainly follows the bizarreness of the original. Not sure I like the dark turn, but a story about Death is bound to go a little dark, right. I mean, no musical comedies floating around out there about death…unless you count Bill and Ted’s Bogus Adventure.

I’ve read neither the prequel nor the sequel, (yet) but this had me rolling on the floor laughing. :D

I think I might need to read a few more times to get the logic. Good job carrying on with the same style of dialogue and characterization THX started with.

Ummm…… What movie?

Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey. They have a goofy series of challenges with Death so they can come back to earth. It’s tres silly.

First, Kevin, a great follow-up to what THX started.

Second, bonus points for referencing one of my all time favourite movies (even if your character did call it “bad”). ;-)

I liked Bill & Ted (the first more than the second, but still) and actually I often think of the line when they first get to Hell and one of them says, “Dude, we’ve been totally lied to by our album covers.”

(It really doesn’t matter which one says that.)

Anyway, I liked this, and I think that the title being an idea from Bill & Ted proves that you liked the movie too.

Most of the popular stories get 5/5 everytime. Do you think you get lower ratings because of your fat eyes?

It could be, but I like to think it’s because I’m tolerant of others’ faults and flaws.

Oh, and it’s never good to mock the guy with root access.

You get lower ratings because you’re tolerant? I don’t remember mocking you.

“Fat eyes” isn’t a little insulting? Granted, it’s not the best insult I’ve ever heard, but it certainly wasn’t constructive criticism about my writing.

Oh i just thought that’s way you guys talk. It was a comment/question. It’s not the insult I’ve ever heard, but it certainly wasn’t about my writing.

What does naked singularity mean?

A naked singularity is a black hole that’s gather so much hydrogen around it that the hydrogen forms a “bubble” around it and it no longer pulls everything around it into it. It’s a fairly recently observed thing… I love the name and the idea that you can basically throw so much hydrogen at a black hole that it gets “clogged”.

haha like a toilet. big dead toilet.

I offer a truce. A deuce truce.

That’s not what a naked singularity is. A naked singularity is merely a singularity that lacks an event horizon. There’s debate as to whether naked singularities are even possible, but then there’s still debate as to whether black holes actually exist.

If you want to actually read some credible information regarding current theory about naked singularities, here’s a pretty accessible article.

Well, that’ll teach me to repeat what I’d heard without verifying it… Thanks for the link!

No prob!

This isn’t related to your story, sorry, but Druhim, you have done me proud here today.

As for the story, it is an interesting concept, and I think you set it up in such a way as to allow for some great stories to build off of it. However, it does read like the script to a webcomic. I really don’t feel like I know who the characters are that much.

For the compliment sandwich, it did make me laugh.

Good setup, very clever!

I teach a class called “physics and science fiction” I can very much appreciate the humor. Kind of MacGyver’s approach to immortality.

realy? make a better 1 this is pretty bad
