Here’s my post for the A-Z Challenge, letter O. I’m so glad it’s Friday. I’m finally starting to hit some of my deadlines again. Hope you’ve had a good week so far!

Ordinary People

Notice found on an intergalactic billboard:

Yes, ordinary humans, we want YOU for a once-in-lifetime research opportunity.

Now seeking human families, preferably one of each gender with at least two biological descendants of said couple.

(Note: If you are currently in a marital or other committed relationship with a member of another species but think you might be interested, please contact us anyway as free IVF and other non-sexual reproductive arrangements may be an option.)

All transportation and living expenses will be paid by us for the duration of this experiment.

Please contact us today for more information:

The Ordinary People Foundation

Note: Regular experimentation will be required. Satisfaction and comfort cannot be guaranteed. Side effects may include weight-gain, sleeplessness, and death. Most participants report overall satisfaction, but this may not be your experience. Void in star systems prohibiting human experimentation. All rights reserved.

So…just wondering…would you sign up? 😉 As I was writing this story, all I kept thinking was Soylent Green is People and It’s a Cookbook!!! I still can’t believe Soylent is an actual food product. I’d definitely do my research first.

Happy Friday!
