AUGUST HOLIDAY HUNGER
Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue
AUGUST HOLIDAY HUNGER
AUGUST HOLIDAY HUNGER GAMES!
Now I know what ya'll are thinkin':
Wait a second! It's August! There are no special holidays!
Well, we know that too, but a month just isn't the same without a HHG!
(*)that's why we decided to make a little something special for August, and every other month devoid of holidays!(*)
*WHATA DAY!*
(*)Zekey, my boy, tell us about Whata Day!(*)
Whata Day is a fictional holiday on the nineteenth of every holiday-derived month in which anything can happen. The traditions change every single year, so you never know what will happen next. Thus, the Whata Day HHG is a bit different; for our first HHG, there will be no theme. However, the winner of this HHG will decide the theme for the next Whata Day, happening on...*
This September!
*We won't be making HHGsfor holidays solely giving kids a day off of school because of a lack of material and because we want to have more Whata Days per year. Memorial Day is the only exception. Also, the New Years won't be counted because they're right next to each other as well as personal life.*
Without further ado, Let's see our tributes!

Augh! My abdomen! Shadowmist, I don't even know who you are, but WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?? ahh...
Georgia. You. are. fine.
I may be fine physically, but my ego is permanantely damaged.
Ok then. Ella, this was unbelievably hilarious.
Except for the part where I DIED!
That part was especially funny.
Hey!
Arrow! Be nice!
*sighs* It was great, Ella, thanks for making these. Can't wait for the next Whata Day!
(August 19, 2020 - 7:17 pm)
What can I say? I had pulled an all-nighter the day before and I was kind of off...
Plus, I was super pumped that I got in and Timber didn't, and I wanted to get in at least one KO.
SHADOWMIST! How could you?! I cannot belive you would eat a cat, you cannibal!
Uh...well...I-
You're HALF CAT Shadow, and so am I!
I know, I just-
I'm not talking to you anymore.

(August 20, 2020 - 9:53 am)
This is hilarious but I have no idea what it is and I'm super curious. Would someone kindly explain?
(August 20, 2020 - 12:49 pm)
Yay, I got set on fire at the Feast! yee! Hey., at least I made it to day three which is, like, halfway through (and day four was uneventful so thats like more than half). Oh, wait, I survived longer than most so yah. >: What's a KO? and when will the next one be? Also, I think it would be cool if we got training scores and maybe actual interveiws on a thread, I don't know, maybe we say a few strengths and weaknesses whoich are taken into account? Idk, just an idea.
QueenofWolves, have you read the Hunger Games? It's a trilogy by Suzzane Collins where, every year, there are 24 randomly chosen people alled "tributes," one boy and one girl from each district, are forced into a giant outdoor arena to kill eachother until there is only one left alive. People are supposed to treat it like a sporting event. The winner's district gets gifts for a year, many of which are food. I haven't on the CB for long and this is the first one that I've seen but basicly there was a thread where you could volunteer to be in it and than I guess someone writes out what happens.
Ha my code thing says "match" so thagt's an actual word.
(August 20, 2020 - 4:38 pm)
No way! I won the HHG! This is great. Sorry Barnswallow!
(August 20, 2020 - 6:42 pm)
Summer, as the winner, you get to decide what the theme for the next Whata Day HHG will be!
(August 22, 2020 - 10:14 am)
Okay! How about... dessert! Everybody likes dessert! And it'll be fun to watch people get hit with pies and stuff...
(August 24, 2020 - 6:01 pm)
Wowch. *smacks head on table repeatedly* why?! Hehe... Oh, and can my AE, Shard, sign up for the next one? Be warned, he likes fighting...
Vixen says navey. I think he wants either some clothes from Old Navy, or... an actually navy. We’ll go with getting him clothes.
(August 23, 2020 - 9:46 am)
Yeah we are stupid
oh well, at least i made it a little while!
great job, Ella! I really love it <3

(August 23, 2020 - 2:40 pm)
This made me laugh so much I got a bit teary. (It was the Dealy Sins part that really got me- STAR WARS? STAR WARS, REALLY??! But that reference though...)
Congrats, Summer! :D
