Princess Beutificus Maximus knew she'd had too much ale when she went to bed with an elf, but woke up with a hangover and an orc.

Why, oh why, did we ever share the secrets of nuclear power with chimps?

As a yawning Grimple reached for his morning portion of varly, he noticed in sadness that it sat in the cup unmoving, not at all quivering with the usual aromatic spasms and twitchings that a proper fresh helping should have.

They called the house abandoned, but the trees had been living in it for years.

Ethan fought unconsciousness as the Coaxillian guards dragged him back over the wooden planks into the containment area.

I can be a cruel sea--devouring millions of lives and loves alike, but it was the heart of one man that finally calmed me; it's a shame it's not in my nature to remain one way for long.

It was a special kind of torture: sentenced to coast through space until he reached its edge.

I lay at the end of the universe wondering if the Oracle's prophecy would ever come true when a lone shuttle came drifting into view.

I told my friend Angie not to date a centaur, any centaur because they're all alike--half-ass, half-man, which is surprisingly similar to every other male of every other species.

Do you think the old earth saying "ass-man" was a derogatory comment about us?

Centaurs aren't nearly as bad as those bull headed minotaurs.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm glad we killed of the creatures of myth.

So, this girl dumped me 'cause she didn't like tails but she really can't point fingers considering she had pointy ears!

I once met a girl that gave a whole new meaning to 'chasing tail.'
