first lines
a friend and i sort of collect, or make up, or point out
lines that could start a story
mostly absurd but not always
there really aren't rules - it's a 'know them when you hear them' situation
like:
there's linguini everywhere
or
the slugs were gone this morning
or
the garbage truck sings like a monster
or
i know where my blankets are
anybody got contributions here?

Angrily she slammed the door shut with finality, but then she slammed it a few more times, just to make sure.
With his weapon slung carelessly over his shoulder, Danvers eyed the raw recruit with disdain and spat into the mud, not because the plug of tobacco had run its course, but because he was a piggish, uncouth slob.
As he floated outside the space station, McConnell reflected that the best part of spacewalking was that, out here, he could fart all he wanted without having to listen to his crewmates complaining about it.
