Now, if it was me I would probably do this using a computer controlled 4D special laser printer but she considered the appropriate course of action to be to grow one inside her stomach.<\/p>\n<p>I remembered how my mum, Sharon Shirley, had accidentally sacrificed her own innards to the nefarious purpose of creating a mutant hybrid between herself and my old man after placing too much faith in the stress resistance of polyurethane. I relayed my experiences to the wench before me and reiterated my belief in laser printing technology. We adopted a little Chinese girl as a compromise. She was a little two dimensional grey one from my HP LaserJet P2050 Series PCL6. I added a third dimension by spraying it with Impulse Jasmine (body mist).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m confused by the word &#8216;this&#8217;, it&#8217;s like a piece of string between the world and the sentence&#8221; I said. She said that all words were like that and asked me why I was standing on top of the gigantic whoopy cushion I&#8217;d been gradually blowing up. The noise that followed was genuinely hilarious. We all laughed and had pancakes for dinner. Except our beautiful daughter who was killed in a tragic shredding accident.<\/p>\n<p>The end,<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border:none;\" border=\"0px\" src=\"http:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/images\/signature.png\" width=\"195\" height=\"123\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was walking down the street the other day, and I bumped into this woman (I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve ever met a woman, they&#8217;re basically mad hideous monsters, like men) and she&#8217;d got into her head the misguided idea &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/2011\/01\/20\/raph-shirley-prophet\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[70,31,40],"class_list":["post-535","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-other-stuffs-sic","tag-family","tag-misogyny","tag-short-story"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raphshirley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
