A boy falls in love with a girl.

Unable to confess, he is gifted by a deus ex machina with the girl's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC’s own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

>"You know," said Sneed, "Now that we've been stranded on Planet LeBronJames, I've been thinking."
>"About what, Sneed?" said Chuck.
>"Perhaps," said Sneed, taking a long last look at the portrait in his hands, of George Washington Carver, inventor of peanut butter and first President of the United States of America, achievements now both lost in a sea of stardust. "Perhaps the real n-word was the friends we made along the way."
>Chuck nodded. "That's a good one." He cocked an eyebrow and stared at the setting sun. "I was thinking of something else. I think I figured it out, you know. The n-word."
>Sneed's eyes widened. "Really?", "Yeah, really," said Chuck.
>"And when did you figure out?"
>"I always knew," said Chuck. "From the very beginning. But I just wanted to take you along for the ride"
>"What?!"
>"Because you're my friend, Sneed." said Chuck. "And... You know, I like your version of this story better."
>Sneed shook his head and laughed. "I'm glad you did! We had such a blast! You're a good friend too, Chuck."
>Chuck got up and adjusted his hat. "Well! Now that the adventure is over, let's get home. I'm really tired of the shitty monuments on this planet. Humans were some real ugly motherfuckers."

A tech in a secret cloning lab survives an apocalyptic event and resorts to growing and eating cloned embryos/babies of himself as his only food source

[Anonymous No.20162920]

A young man who lives next to a river likes to feed the fishes every morning, and has the habit of masturbating and ejaculating on that same river in the darkest hours of the night, well after midnight, just for the fresh fun of doing it, and also for the delightful chill breeze of the night, as the inside of his house is too hot. One morning, as he is feeding the fishes, he notices one of them has an eerily human face, and from then on, shenanigans ensue.

Bit of a surreal horror comedy kinda deal.
