ITT: premises for short stories that will never see the light of day.

Oh key, dokies.

How Zeus and all the different Gods are each a seperate personality of God.

How every person has a personality like the God
How the higher levels of creation are diffent substances of the self

A man starts an agency for people who are bored of their current lives to swap with someone else.

You never know what you're going to get.

Eventually this becomes a big thing to do with celebrities, millionaires etc doing it.

I feel like this has been done in a slightly tweaked way. Pic related, it's the movie that does it.

a man walks to a bus stop to catch a bus
but just as he is getting near the bus stop, the bus goes past and he misses it
he stands at the bus stop and waits for the next bus
he catches it
he's 15 minutes later to his destination than he originally planned, but he had allowed plenty time to get there so overall his plans were not affected by missing the bus

>girl with depression
>father thinks it's just a phase, that she should 'feel better', etc
>father becomes disillusioned with family, descends into alcoholism
>daughter thinks he should just stop drinking/repair family
Just sort of an irony thing, I dunno

Are there any stories written from the point of view of an idea/meme as it jumps from person to person? I'm sure it's been done before but would be neat desu

Could be good; might have been done. Even then it's just a technique; you still have to find your story.

A girl grows up in a extremely strict religious family with a father she idolizes. When she gets older, he won’t let her go to prom because it’s the synagogue of Satan. But, she discovers that he is having an affair, and decides she’s going to go to the prom anyway. She goes on her own and he shows up at the prom to forcibly remove her, they have a shouting match and she roasts him, he leaves in shame. She leaves soon after but doesn’t go home, she just sits on the side of the curb contemplating how her life got so fucked up.

how about the idea of transcendence as it jumps around people on a bus, first a white PhD student, then a black bus driver, then a hispanic gang member, etc.

I have an idea to expand on this. If anyone actually wants to write this feel free though.

>Start from the perspective of a "god"
>Find out other gods exist, in fact tons of gods
>Gods are constantly trying to influence people
>Slowly start to reveal the theme that gods tend to not do anything in their own
>In fact, now you reveal that they cannot do anything on their own
>Then the plot twist, these weren't gods, they were just common ideas or memes

Do with that what you will. Find this interesting so I hope you like my addition

Have the mother kill herself. Each person then separates. One finds solstice and the other follows her.

Meet Adele through mutual friend. Falls in love with me because of basketball one-on-one skills. Sexual intercourse. Turns out she got fat through a virus. Virus spreads.

Literally though

In chaos magick, the trance-like Gnosis during orgasm is said to affect reality, in that you can manifest your will, during that time, if it is deliberate and directed. There is, you could say, a transference of force, to whatever the symbol being focused upon, during orgasm, represents.

Now, how many people, per day, have orgasms and enter a suggestible trance, while starring at a computer screen? My first inclination was a weird tale, about the internet becoming a sentient godform, and the new Christ / Bhudda. You could also go (and this may well be, in real life) the conspiracy / MK-Ultra route, with using porn and sex magick to manifest corporate profits, wars, election victories, all through the use of Matrix-esque, unwitting human batteries, on pornhub.

I've done this numerous times, and manifestation through orgasm is always achieved, sometimes weeks or months later. I honestly don't know why the CIA, EU, Facebook and so forth, aren't (or they may be) implanting subconscious commands and ideas to influence politics and economics, by means of attention-grabbing symbology, shown near the money-shot, in porn.

I'd probably read it, depending on the era. I think shortly post-war, or before, during the purges, would be most interesting. If it's after the Cuban missile crisis, I'd pass. You could do the Hungarian uprising.
