nobody finishes a book and concludes “that was great; now I shall never read another one.” other writers are your teammates and coworkers, not your competition.

Drop some ghost
A colour illustration of a ghost in chains floating above a castle. It's holding its head above its shoulders (no neck). The head is wearing a wide brimmed hat with a white feather in the band. 
The title across the top reads 
"Hui Buh
das Schlossgespenst" 
(Boohoo the castle ghost)
the title is continued at the bottom: 
... und die Schreckensnacht im Burgturm
(... and the night of horror in the belfry)
The blurb reads: "Ein spannendes und lustiges Hörspiel von Eberhard Alexander-Burgh"
(A thrilling and funny audio drama by [author's name])
It is a title in a long running series of German audio dramas for children.

A room that contains a massive mountain bike, on top of a mattress.  
In this room, there is also an Egyptian sarcophagus and a metal detector. A modern kitchen with a unique, custom-built kitchen island with a built-in live fish tank base. Poor fish!A room with a collection of creepy vintage dolls neatly lined up against the wall. A purple beanbag chair in the foreground, and a wall-mounted television displaying a beach scene. Weird.A bathroom that inexplicably has two obelisks either side of the bath.

I am watching The Wicker Man and was reminded of the quoted photo when this scene came on:
Sgt. Howie is lying on his bed in uniform. He's staring at a lit Hand of Glory that bears an uncanny resemblance to Trump's hand in the photo Aaron Rupar posted. It's similarly wrinkled and veined, only Trump's fingers aren't on fire.

Found a loaf on the pavement.
An orange and white cat - most of its back, the top half of its head and the tail are orange - is loafing on some paving stones next to a lawn, tail on the left, head on the right of the photo. It's looking into the middle distance. The same cat in the same position but it's now looking straight at the camera.

NO. DO NOT DO THIS. Do NOT think about The Event and under NO circumstances attempt to relive The Event. This may cause DISTRESS and CONFUSION. REMAIN INDOORS.

Action Park was basically a series of dares that got more and more progressively dangerous until you either tapped out or were carried out on a stretcher. It truly was completely unmanaged insanity. As can be imagined, as a teenager, it was immeasurable fun. And yes, the water loop was real.
