There are 8 beginning phrases; make sentences using those phrases in order to make a story. Those phrases are:

  1. Once upon a time…
  2. And every day…
  3. Until one day…
  4. And because of this…
  5. And because of this…
  6. And because of this…
  7. Until finally…
  8. And ever since that day…
  9. The moral of the story is...

For example, a player posts a sentence beginning with "Once upon a time..." and the next player has to post a sentence beginning with "And every day..." and so on.  In order to give everyone a chance,  please post only once in each story per day.

I'll start.

Once upon a time, there was a woman who worked in a coffee shop.

And every day she baked the scones and brewed the coffee while daydreaming about sailing on a pirate ship.
 

Until one day, she decided to set sail on the high seas.

Once upon a time, there was a woman who worked in a coffee shop.

And every day she baked the scones and brewed the coffee while daydreaming about sailing on a pirate ship.
 

Until one day, she decided to set sail on the high seas.
 

And because of this, she discovered she had terrible seasickness and was constantly hanging over the side of the dinghy.

The moral of the story is it's all about the drugs.

Once upon a time, there lived a boy named Jack Jackson. 

And every day, Jack Jackson juggled jugs.

Until one day a wanderer came into town, one that also juggles jugs.

And because of this, Jack Jackson decided there needed to be a judged jug juggling tournament.

And because of this, the wanderer (Joy Johnson) jump started her jug juggling by juggling jugs and jackrabbits.

Until finally, the jackrabbits had enough of being juggled- and devised a great plan to make the jugglers and all of Juniper Junction pay for their mistreatment.

The moral of the story is that jugglers should juggle jugs, as the juxtaposition of jackrabbits to the jugular can make one jittery and not joyous.

Once upon a time, there was a battle between the Nefarious Nitwits and the Brazen Bullies.

And every day, each side needed to sacrifice one warrior to the Vengeful Volcano for good fortune in the clash- lest the Volcano swallow them all.

Until one day, all of the warriors previously sacrificed suddenly climbed out of the Vengeful Volcano, wondering what had happened.

And because of this, the first Nefarious Nitwit - Brazen Bully hybrid was born, and it was thought that David the Brazen Nitwit might usher in a new era of peace.

And because of this, battles with weapons ceased and they started having dances, but those soon became dance-offs!

And because of this, most of the population danced themselves to death as done during the Dancing Plague of 1518!

Until finally, there remained 4 Nefarious Nitwits who had refused to join in the dance-offs and 5 Brazen Bullies who opposed the dance offs on moral grounds.

The moral of the story is... if you're ever sacrificed to a volcano, don't climb out or your town will eventually become the inspiration for Footloose

Once upon a time, Heroic Hank met Impish Ivan.

And every day, Impish Ivan would knock Heroic Hank's Heavenly Hash ice cream scoop off the cone and onto the floor.

Until one day, Heroic Hank decided to get his half-hearted revenge on Impish Ivan and knock his Interesting Iced Coffee ice cream to the ground.

(Probably not the best... but I was hard-pressed. HAHA rhyming!)
