Screw you if you write an "It was just a dream" ending to story!

Seriously, it's the biggest copout in writing! It's not a twist! You're just lazy and unoriginal!

That's wrong. It's equal to making ''m''s on a painting to illustrate birds. I had a lecture for that once lol.

My biggest problem with the movie version of The Wizard of Oz. Did the book's story result from a concussion? NO, Oz was real, and it was spectacular. Fuck off, MGM.

Stories are fiction ya know.

Though I do wonder what kinds of dreams those authors have because mine are never so orderly as to construct a real narrative. If it were my dream it'd start with me missing a test in college then my Kindergarten teacher would hand me a hot dog in a house that I knew was my house that was in actuality nothing like my house then something unseen would chase me.

It worked brilliantly for Bob Newhart. And C.S. Lewis, for that matter. Sort of.

I once had a dream I traveled to 2004 with a blonde woman I did not recognize, and attempted to steal a yacht using only my wit and a little handheld device that lit up and went 'wewewe'. For some reason Matt Smith showed up but he was shot in the leg with a .50 cal by one of the Irish Mercenaries.
But then I realized it was not a dream
