how fast can you write? slow versus fast writer. which are you?

a little task:
write something down really quickly without interruption of thoughts for at least half a second or more and see what you come out with.
it could be about anything and post it here for us to read. it would be fun to see what ever one come out with :)

I admit I am finding difficult LOL I will keep at it though :D

DONT GET UPSET its just a major disaster; all those lightbulbs no doubt, twisting in the sky and mocking us! mocking us! just like those darn animals

Well that came out strangely. I think as I write, without pauses, normally; I expect most do. I did one sentence as you can see. May I ask the expectations you have in regards to the findings of this little test?

I really enjoyed this piece. it made me laugh brilliant and it does feel fast when you read it too :D

I thin it cam out brilliant myself ;)
I expected unexpected reading because I guessed when one writes against speed words come out faster then the thought itself and therefore makes for unexpected write. it is fun.
post more when you can again :)

Hm, actually that was a very neat sentence there, which would be setting the mood for a story where the narrator is facing some sort of mental issue/distortion. Great :)

Btw, it made me think of the stars on the sky. For an ominous reason ;)

Now I'm reluctant to write another for fear of it not being as well received as that one... A nice exercise anyway; but where are your contributions? I await eagerly.

I love your sentence still, anyway :)

As for me contributing: i think i cannot really let go as much so as to produce this sort of sentence. In the past i used semi-automatic writing in parts of my work. I found it to be potentially dangerous for me, though, given it seems to be (to its maximum extent, to the point where it would meet the border of the actual unconscious) a movement which may bring back far more than one can handle at any time...

here is mine:
I had an idea in my head and it went out of the window because it was trying to think and write ant the same time without stopping and it gave met the giggles.
there is mine no punctuation mark whatsoever till the end.
