sorta funny story i randomly feel like telling: my mother loves horror movies so when i was like 9 she gave me a bunch of stephen king books/movies to read/watch, trying to instill a love for the horror genre

anyways one day in school we had an assignment to ‘come up with our own original story’ but i was feeling lazy and just basically copied part of the plot to ‘the shining’ and combined it with part of the plot to ‘misery’ and handed it in (it was a little bit graphic for a nine year old, i’ll admit)

well… guess who got a trip to the counselors office! they started asking me all sorts of questions about my story and *i* thought they were trying to get me to admit that i plagiarized so i refused talk about it. TURNS OUT they actually didn’t make the connection that it was stephen king and they thought it was a cry for help. they sent me to in-school counseling for a month before someone finally figured it out and called my mother and told her not to give me any more stephen king books

i hope it's okay if i reblog this (please let me know if you'd like me to remove the reblog) this is fucking hilarious i'm tangentially reminded of the time a local sports team gave my mother (an elementary schoolteacher) stephen king popup books. as a gift. for the children. anyway thank you for sharing op i got a good laugh out of this :)
