The articles you cited exist, otherwise you couldn't have cited them. The content - the news they purport to describe - is fictitious. They are not. They are not fictitious articles. All this has been said before, and you will be no more inclined to acknowledge it from this source than any other, but I felt obliged to say it once. Accept it or not, you did lose that one. You should offer to eat E's dust, an opportunity which many will envy. Maybe you should eat it while Edwarda spanks you, for a truly exotic experience.

Wrong again. It means that the story is fictitious. Never existed, was never real. A fictional story is a made up story, told about an event that didn't happen. (Some stories, of course, are true) I can imagine writing about a fictitious story. For example, if I'm writing a fictional story, I might say that my hero was on the Titanic and wrote a story about his experiences. Of course, since he is a figment of my imagination, so is the story. That would be a fictitious story -- it never existed, was never real. I can talk about it. But I can't produce it or post it here. My story is fictional. The story my hero is supposed to have written is fictitious. That's the difference. I think you're smart enough to grasp it, so if you keep posting about it it's just because you choose to subvert your intelligence to your desire for conflict, which is not laudatory.
