Susan at Stony River hosts this fun theme each Monday, so do pop over and read the others who have signed Mr. Linky. The rules are thus:
Every Monday Susan will post a picture for the subject of your story. Microfiction means the shortest of short stories. Think Aesop's fables, comic strips, or even jokes: complete stories that can be told in under a minute. For this game, the limit is a tweetable 140 characters or fewer, including punctuation and spaces.
Here's today's picture and my contribution.
In the midst of the storm Ethel was surprised to see the mermaids,
who had come to the surface to see who had just chucked up over the side.

ROFLMAO!!! Maybe the bar maiden had a few too many LOL Oh wait they are mermaids. LOL Great story. Well done my friend :) Have a great week ahead :)
Oh hilarious! A great start to my day - a big smile! My day is going to be good!
What's the punchline from that old joke? "I don't remember eating them!"
Great tale this week!

Poor Ethel, oh dear. I hope they're only coming to lend sympathy, and not rub her nose in it LOL
One too many? Oh Thom I know that feeling. ;(
I'm happy to have started your day off with a smile Mrs N :)
Yes Morning AJ there's always tomato skins and carrots!
I'm not sure they all seem to be smiling Susan!
A dangling, "innocent" first line followed by raw reality! Great twist!
Yuck! Funny, though . . .

Not a nice thing for mermaids to experience :-)

Instead of Lifesavers, hopefully, the mermaids have come with their fish-pockets full of THESE. LOL!

Ick! Reminds me of the kindergartners the day one boy had a mild seizure and we called his mom to take him home. When we returned to the classroom the only thing they wanted to know was, "Did he throw up?"
No wonder Ethel has a knife. I would imagine those mermaids can be a little cranky after getting puked on!
Yes, It has been a logn time, my daughter encouraged me to start, do I did. I have kept up with you by lurking everyso often to see what you have been up to.
Hau`oli Piha Makahiki! to your son and daughter-in-law. I wish them all the best today :)
Poor mermaids.

Poor Ethel, was she Partying with Lucy again, or only eating Lucy's cooking. Nice one, I think I'll wait a bit before making Supper.
Now I have this horrifying image of mermaids swimming through vomit.
Chumming the water....
I laughed the most at this one and I've read about 15 of them so far! Hilarious.

I'm thinking those poor mermaids would be pointing their fins at me and laughing while I turned as green as the sea!
