Hope y’all like this. A pal and I invented this game (as far as we know, though we based it on an old radio show, Author! Author!) while on a train-ride once. Basically, Person A gives the first line of a story, preferably involving a weird situation, and Person B has to finish it: it doesn’t matter if Person B’s line resolves the problem in Person A’s line, it just has to provide a satisfactory conclusion. All in one line. And no getting around that rule with run-on sentences or anything. For example: A: “Joe started yelling at the clouds…” Well, what could he be yelling at clouds? And why? Or you could turn it into a joke—or, best but hardest, both explain it and turn it into a joke. B: “He said, ‘Hey, whatever happened to my skydiving partner?!’” That is to say, it’s supposed to be a surprise, but it’s also supposed to be funny. Here’s one to start off: |

Albert always made sure to put mayonnaise on the bottom slice of bread when he made sandwiches. Why he always put it on the bottom of the bottom slice no one could ever figure out. -- Tonight it was Larry's turn to feed the aliens in the attic. |

Tonight it was Larry's turn to feed the aliens in the attic. “Mom! Dad! I brought you some tasty humans to snack on!” -- The great chessmaster practiced for hours, trying to figure out every possible way he could lose the most important match of his life. |

He always preferred backgammon and was tired of being invited to chess tournaments.

Sally wondered why people were impressed with her ability to climb things. Considering she was part mountain goat, it really should've come as no surprise. ===================== Doug had just made the perfect taco and took his first bite of it. |

And when he realized he forgot to make one for his wife, he knew his fate was consigned to the couch. ================================= Larry told them not to worry about the sounds of footsteps coming the attic. |

Larry told them not to worry about the sounds of footsteps coming the attic. What they should've been more concerned about was the growling coming from the basement. ===================== Picking up that hot female hitchhiker seemed like a good idea to Fred at the time. |

But then he realized he shouldn't have had the gang split up. ================================================= Mike decided to take a walk in the woods. |

It would have been really odd, she reflected as her commanding officer told her the training mission was over, if the capsule had been in space at the time!
