Once upon a time... (Reloaded) - 26-07-2007, 10:21 PM

Ok guys its back....

Once upon a time.... The Latesht Season

Some of you might know about the legendary "Once upon a time" thread we had earlier.(Don't try searching for it now Its resting in peace in the recycle bin ) For those who don't know what it is supposed to be, here's the dope:

All of us together make up a story:
Anyone can add to it, max 3/4 sentences. It can be any damn thing
The only thing to look out for is to maintain the continuity.

PS: Right now there are no rules or limits on number of posts by any user in a day.. We hate having too many rules in chit-chat.. But sooner or later we may have to have some rules depending on how the thread progresses.. So its all upto you guys.. Take it away...

So here I begin:

Presenting the story of the year --------------->

Once upon a time there was a......


Atheist or Narcissist - I choose the latter

Jack and Jill went up the hill to smoke some marijuana
Jack got high and dropped his *** and said, "Do you wanna?"
Jill said yes and pulled her **** and then they had some fun
Silly Jill forgot her pill, and now they have a son....

who was of course named Jack-and-Jill

The reason Jack-and-Jill had never known about his parents all his life was....

The above post does not quite depict the expected mood and the expected story. We wanted a humourous story behind the naming of Jack and Jill And I guess that also contradicts the guidelines. Subhankar, I think that was quite needless.

Or, do you consider that extremely needful?


You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today.
They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine.' So that was nice
Restless as always

rewriting the reason 4 the name of the prince...hope my addition does justice to the plot..

Jack N Jill...well that was the full name of the prince ...the Jill family had been ruling Jill-land for centuries...a beautiful kingdom nested high in the mountains...

Neena, Cant a riduclous story be used to explain the origins of a (Dare I say it..) ridiculus name like Jack-and-Jill..???

All I was trying to do was come up with something imaginative to make a reference to Jack & Jill (which is also, essentially, a poem after all) & in the process make the story take a "different" turn

Never mind, I do get your point, I should stay away from this thread lest my imagination runs too wild

Guess what...even "Needs" are getting subjective & opinionated these days


Btw, even your post did not add to the story & was (in principle) out of context, Be careful, the mods are watching
