A Story: Only 2 Sentences At A Time

[Sir Robin Hood]

We're going to write an epic story. The crazier, the funnier, the better. Here are the only rules:

1. You can only write two sentences at a time.
2. Though you can add crazy twists & turns to the story's plot, your sentences must follow-up what the pp has written.

I'll start us off. Since it is the holiday season, why not make our own hilarious version of A Christmas Carol.


"Once upon a time, there was a miserable old man named Ebeneezer Scrooge. He loved money and hated Christmas."

However, he was an extremely attractive bachelor that the ladies of London adored. He, being Scrooge, would have nothing to do with them, of course, since all he cared about was money.

 

[Sir Robin Hood]

Scrooge's clerk, a humble man named Bob Cratchit, was concerned about his bosses' behavior. Mr. Cratchit secretly signed up Ebeneezer for the Dr. Phil show, in hopes he could be changed for the better.

But, needless to say, Dr. Phil met his match in Scrooge. Not able to change his behavior, Dr. Phil retired permanently.

 

[Sir Robin Hood]

Dr. Phil retired to the beautiful Gulf coast of Florida, where his neighboring condo housed a man named Jacob Marley. Dr. Phil told Marley all about Scrooges' behavior on the show, and Marley knew something had to be done immediately!

Thus, on Christmas Eve Mr. Marley visited the home of Scrooge in the middle of the night and warned him of three ghosts that would visit him. Mr. Scrooge declared Mr. Marley slightly daft and poo-pooed his prediction as total poppycock.

After Mr. Marley left Scrooge decided to lounge in his Lazy Boy EZ Chair and watch some T.V. "Bah Humbug!!" Scrooge yelled as he flipped through the 140 channels of holiday programming on his satellite TV.

Suddenly he heard a knock at the door and he figured the pizza had arrived. Before he got the chance to get up out of his recliner, the door opened and in floated the ghost of Christmas Past.

When he looked again at the Ghost of Christmas Past, he noticed that he was carrying a very large Pizza box. Scrooge was surprised to find that when the Ghost of Christmas Past opened the Pizza box, there was much more than just Pizza in it.

Lo and behold~~there was a $50.00 online coupon for Cyber Monday gift sales through Ebay. "Forget the pizza, Ghost of Christmas Past~~~I am heading for the computer," remarked Ebenezer to the bewildered GofCP left standing at the door.

 

[Sir Robin Hood]

The Ghost of Christmas Past thought, "This isn't working...drastic measures need to be taken!" So the Ghost phoned Bob Saget and asked if he could come over & give Scrooge a fatherly pep-talk like he used to do on Full House.

Scrooge sits in his Lay Z Boy, his laptop on his lap as he browsed for a new money clip. Bob Saget took the laptop from Scrooge and sat it on the floor to which Scrooge replied "How Rude!"

 

[Dedejf]

Bob ignored Scrooge pouting in his Lazy Boy and put a fatherly hand on Ebenezer's shoulder as he thought of fatherly wisdom to share with Scrooge. By now the ghost of Christmas Past had about had it and started rattling his chains and sending Scrooge into flashbacks of his boyhood.

 

[Evita_W]

"Oh that's orignal...," Scrooge mumbled, "...just another cheesy Holiday flashback," and he lifted his remote to try to change the channel. But, as he leaned in closer to look at the scene before him he began to realize that he was no longer on his Lay-Z-Boy or even in his own house.

 

[FoggyToad]

Scrooge realized he was staring into the window of his boyhood home. "Eeeek, a peeping tom~~call the bobbies!!!" screamed his little sister Belle.
