The story of the Ocean and Brownie eyes

Long ago a friendship was born of a ocean and brownie eyes. Ocean eyes started to have feelings for brownie eyes...but brownie hade it for olive eyes. Brownie eyes could talk about olive eyes for hour something who made ocean eyes jealous, jealous at a point of he wanted olive eyes to dissepear but he thought this wasn't enough.
He learn that olive eyes have allergies for neats and gives him a chocolate tart with neats in ..what ocean eyes didn't know is that olive could die if he ate to much ....and olive eyes did ate to much and died.
He run to brownie eyes in a rainy day and  told her the truth shocked she said with tears in her eyes. " I won't report you to the police because you were my friends,but never come back to me again.." . Ocean eyes agreat and regrets of being jealous of olive eyes because something that he didn't know is that  brownie eyes had started to have feelings  for him..

But you may ask" What happened with the two eyes now"
...Well they both grow up separately with a sad feeling in there heart and never meet again

Premium Member Dunking Stool

Cucking-stools
A ballad, dating from about 1615, called "The Cucking of a Scold", illustrates the punishment inflicted to women whose behavior made them be identified as "a Scold"

Then was the Scold herself,
In a wheelbarrow brought,
Stripped naked to the smock,
As in that case she ought:
Neats tongues about her neck
Were hung in open show;
And thus unto the cucking stool
This famous scold did go

Dunking or Cucking Stools were used for women who “gossiped” 
last used in 1809
Stool of Repentance has a long HISTORY!
Will it make a comeback? Bite your tongues
