I see this type of thing pop up on other messageboards from time to time (there's one that's still going after four years on a certain website that I frequent, for instance). Since I'm board, and since Rick Sloane's Mind can have anything in it that might be a bad idea, I figured, "Say, why not try it out here?" And if this belongs on CM Mountain or Gypsy's Games instead,....meh. Sue me.
[glow=red,2,300]And the story begins....[/glow]
Once upon a time, there was a kid who lived on a farm. This kid spent his days working and playing in fashions similar to other kids who lived on farms across the world, but he always wished for a bit more.
Unfortunately, he received his wish one day when there was a sudden....

[glow=red,2,300]But then, the sequel came around![/glow]
The night of the earthquake happened to coincide with an ancient day of prophesy that Zalagasan warrior monks knew would bring about something fantastic!
This fantastic thing, however, was unrelated to the boy. Coincidentally enough, though, the boy's ghost, feeling that it had unfinished business, returned to Earth in just a few moments after the Earthquake settled down.
"I need something interesting to happen to me," said the boy. "And this ghost thing doesn't seem to be interesting enough, for some reason. I need to scour the world for something interesting enough to make my spirit pass on!"
So the ghost flew to the road where he began to thumb for a ride to....

Oh oh oh I know. No wait a minute, let's see, the boy says...uh no, not that. No wait don't tell me. I didn't move yet. So the boy says, no that wouldn't make any sense. Damn I almost had it. Give me a minute, I'll be back.

I just thought that's how the last person set it up. It was a soft ball pitch and I hit it.
I certainly don't want it to go into any sort of sexual direction whether it be homo or heterosexual. It's supposed to be funny right?

....that The Ghostbusters lived in New York, and this was a farming community.
Naturally, Manning's only course of action was to hitchhike to New York. Or, in the event that a car couldn't hold him, walk there.
After he crushed five cars, walking sounded much more reasonable. After determining which direction New York was in, he set off on his quest to find the Ghostbusters.
After five miles, he....

....two lawyers from the all you can eat restaurant's home base in Tallahassee, Florida. The lawyers flew up to Manning's height with some form of hovercraft that was marked "The offices of Boyd, Dewey, Chetham and Howe: legal experts of the paranormal."
The first man stood up. "Sir, you just ate every morsal of food at the local branch of the Master Minstrel All Ye Canne Eat restaurant. Now, while the sign clearly said "all you can eat", that does not apply to non-humans and superhumans such as yourself. I mean, if a weasel was to enter the restaurant with enough money taped to it, we would not be expected to give it the full all-you-can-eat treatment. Logically, you have seriously harmed our over-gracious clients in this matter, and you will pay for all damages caused to this branch. Come with us, please."
Manning decided to....
