  1. The boy next door crouched down to scare her. With the element of surprise, she screamed mercy on the top of her lungs.

  2. My marching band is doing a show this year called E4. It’s about the elements. I’m the drum major. It will be magical and we’ll massacre the competition with our elemental props. Fuck yeah. Bwahaha . Anyways the music is from A Distorted Imagination, a 2005 DCI show. I can’t wait till we get the drill down and start going to competitions. That’s always fun. Adios.

  3. I remember skateboarding I never wanted an element board. It’s not because element was bad it just wasn’t my cup of tea. I like elements, a lot. I wish the word was used more often. Though elements sounds better, it can mean many more things than element. I like describing the weather as “the elements”.

  4. all i can think of is that chuck norris joke.

  5. The element is the basic piece of a thing, a thing at its essence. This is why the search for the elements has been such a long quest in philosophy and science: to make a table of atoms, minerals, and simple metals and gasses really fully determine the truth of the thing? Its potential? Its nature?

  6. i used to wear a brand of clothing named element when i was young. i’m 16 now, and this was when i was more like 11, 12, 13. you know? and around this time is when i was a “skater girl” and sometimes i’d even go to the skate park.

  7. I don’t know what it is, but I want it. I see the end result and I know that I’ll do whatever it takes to obtain the element that will make me successful. I want to be praised. I want success.

  8. The fire, the wind, they both give me chills, but they hurt it their own way. It’s beutiful. The grass helps the water grow, the fire brings the mother down and kills.

  9. At last, the element was there. But it aarived when everybody had left. Now what shall I do with it?

  10. out of my element, I’m not at work, where I belong, I make a better soldier than I do a civilian and that makes me out of my element. being home with family and friends just doesn’t fit me, I need to kill again, I need to taste the pain and adrenaline again, and soon, I will…

  12. According to greek theory, there are four elements, and the greater elements rise above the lesser ones: they are ground, which is at the bottom of everything, water, air, and fire.

    Where do I fall,l wonder?

    What stuff am I made of?

  13. If love is chemistry, then what am I missing to make this reaction work?
    We both feel the spark, but what element is it going to take to ignite the flame?
    But then again, I guess, all I have is the fact that I adore you.

  14. Out of your element. There’s a phrase that has rung true for me many a time. I go places where I feel completely out of my element. I’m the odd duck, the weird one, the proverbial cheese standing alone. Then again, how does one grow to be in their element? How do you know when you’ve truly reached the state of being in one’s element in an almost perfect manner? Of course I say “almost perfect” because perfection is so difficult to attain that it is basically impossible, leaving that the most anyone can hope for is to be or feel almost perfect.

  15. there are many elements in the world. each with different characteristics& abilitys.
    elements are like people in that way. none are exactly alike, all unique and wonderful in different ways.

  16. I am in my element, out here in the elements. “The elements” sounds so elemental, so basic, so right there in the here and the now. The wind in my face, the cold wind, the rain. It stings and bites and I don’t like it. Screw it. I’m going in.

  17. earth fire wind water mixed into some awesome kongfu anime shit. Why can’t there only be 4 of em…..sigh periodic table

  18. oroboros.

  19. “Dad, Dad, let me pour it! I want to try!”
    “Easy, Gabe,” he said, carefully transferring the red-hot element to the cast. “If you want a proper pet, you’ll need to be careful and quiet.”
    “But if I make you mess up, I might get something cool, like with wings!” he half-joked.

  20. There are four, or hundreds, depending on who you ask, what mythology you’re dealing with here. I prefer the former. Everything’s simpler that way. Isn’t it? Mystical. Science is for smart people. Smarter than me.

  21. The void. Long stretched out and unknown. Merely considered nothingness instead of its rightful title of an element.

  22. She had been in her element. Serious face, sweaty brow, paint-stained clothing. It gave her character seeing as her self esteem and perseverance levels were running low and any little thing would tip her over the edge.

  23. Why it’s only elementary, my darling.
    That you and I, belong together.

  24. i like the element of surprise. one of the most prominent and beautiful elements there are, and that’s a good thing to be. :)

  25. Is there anythign to say about element? I know it’s a brand name. There are also a periodic table of elements. They are essential!

  26. the element of existence is that we do not exist in the physical form that we perceive. we just live as energy and we are all one being. one force. one.

  27. element in a periodic table. a part of the world, a part of me, a part of you. What element are you today? Today I’m feeling … in element.

  28. If she knew what her element was, she wouldn’t have to go through all this bullshit. On her worst days, she feels like she’s not good at anything, and is too embarrassed to deal with people. On her best days, she pretends she finds her lack of self-awareness liberating, but she can only keep the facade for so long.

  29. She was out of her element. Everything about the place was upside down, a maze of endless turns and curves that always led to some sort of dark end, where she didn’t dare step foot. There was no way out, in his chamber of a heart, and only now was she beginning to realize this.

  30. Carbon, hydrogen, helium, death on a stick, crappy skater stuff, airbender(the cartoon not the movie, the movie is gay, no just gay) earCAPTAIN PLANET!

  31. my delegated niche
    my “proper place”
    is not my element
    so i hesitate
    and fail
    to participate
    at all

  32. Right now I’m listening to Bob Marely.
    I’ve never really heard him before but I like it.
    I’m listening to Jamin.
    I FUCKING LOVE IT.

  33. Each character shares an element, a flaw, more or less, with myself. In a sense, with each story, I’m at least allowing someone to solve my problems. Or rather come to terms with them.

  34. there are four of them i think. earth wind fire and water. i think that movie/ show avatar is about them… or bending them. but i’m not completely sure. i think that there is more to the world than just those four things though. much much more.

  35. The rain fell quietly around them. The sun was shining down over the land, cutting through the clouds. They were far from home, far from their element. But the land that sprawled before them could have been the same that they came from. Though this strange new world glistened with rainwater.

  36. He was in his element, the water rolling freely around his chest. He breathed in deeply, filling his lungs full of oxygen and then dove under water to the surprise of a small school of clown fish. They scattered as he kicked, plunging himself closer to the coral and a new world record.

  37. The element of surprise is always something good to have mastered unless it can get you injured. This actually happened to me when I went to scare my friend. I said “boo!” and then got metal hit in my teeth.

  38. I was out of my element. Stuck in the corner, nearly drowning in the loud sounds and thumping of bass. I looked around desperately, clutching my glass close to my chest in hopes that it would save me from drowning in the sea of socialization. This place was giving me a headache. I didn’t belong here.

  39. Eliminate them! Force all units to flank left. Steal from them every element of their victory and deliver upon them a horrifying mass of fire!

  40. Consuming, rising from the depths of the earth, swirling, inhaling, manifesting beneath my fingertips, burning, sighing.
