Okay, here's a little thinking game for you called Worst case scenario. I'm going to describe a scenario and you think of how it can possibly get worse e.g. I'm late to school....I run into the head teacher who gives me detention and because of that I miss my bus and have to walk home in the rain.
You get the idea.
You can be as creative as you like.
I hope you all enjoy it.

Okay, the scenario is...

I have to go to the doctors.

How can it get worse?

Your statement to lead off is:

I have to go to the Doctors.

Here's how it becomes much worse:

Your "Doctor" has his/her degree in forensic pathology, not medicine, so you are going there for a post-mortem, not just because you are sick. You are in fact, quite deceased.

Here's how...

You have to go to the doctors, the fastest way there is through the park, a bird's droppings fall on your head, you get hit by a ball in the eye, wincing.. you stepped on the tail of a sleeping dog. you get bit, the owner kicks you where the sun don't shine... which leaves you holding your crotch.. the pain causes you to bouble over the ground, just as the bicycles race, when you finally get there you sit next to a fat ugly old woman who leans to your shoulder drooling because the receptionist insists that you need an appointment. Then, a stretcher zooms past you with child-bleeding. It just so happens that a paramedic bumps into you, breaking your nose. You finally fall unconscious and wake up. 3 months later from a coma. When the doctor gets to you, he hands you a hospital bill that's too much for your now inexistant paycheck (you got fired) and you are broke, homeless(got evicted), and dead hungry...

Oh dear, It can't get much worse than that, or can it?

You're going to the doctors

How can it get worse?

You're going to the doctors so that you can pay him the money you lost to him in a poker game. You trip and crack your head open, and die instantly. Your body is cremated but your clumsy cousin comes to visit your grieving relatives and knocks the urn over, spilling your ashes every where. The maid quickly sweeps you into a dustpan before your relatives find you. But she doesn't realise what you actually are so she throws you into the bin and you spend eternity in some stinking landfill.
While all of this is going on, your spirit flies off up to Heaven. You've been a very good person, but there is one big problem. You didn't pay the doctor the money you owed him, so you're sent to Hell for eternity.

Okay. New scenario
(You can still reply to my first one if you want, but make sure that you specify what one you're replying to)

The new scenario is...

I'm going for a job interview.

How can it get worse?

You are being made to go to this job interview as a probational provision, after having been jailed for being framed for company theft at your last job. The person interviewing you is the person that framed you.

Scenario: I'm going fof a job interview.

How can it get worse?

You're going to the job interview from the hospital (just continuing my scenario...)
It's a long long line there. You're qualifyinf ti be an executive for Donald Trump. After a day waiting in line, you haven't eaten a thing. It's finally your turn for the job intervies. You step into the office and take a seat. The mnager is eating a sandwich, too full he throws it to the garbage and excuses himself to go the men's room. You, half-dead from hunger, eats the leftover sandwich from the trash, he comes in as you are above the trash, obvious that you're eating from the trash. He pities you and is angry because it's conduct unbecoming of an employee, you try to plead your case but to no avail. He let's security grab you and the next person. A woman who'se as dumb as a dodo bird but as pretty as Venus with a 80 cm bust line gets the job... on your way out of the building, the guards detedt you so much that they leave you to find your own way out of the building. You go back to the same manager and hear moaning. You stumble upon them having sex in a very explicit position. The manager is so ashamed that he gives you a janitorial job to hush up. You agree and soon, Mr. Trump comes by, you haven't received your paycheck yet and you dawdle around and jour bucket of filthy water is dumped unceremoniously on top of Mr. Trump. He shouts his favorite line "You're Fired." and you're back on the streets...

Let's see...Going for a job interview, how to make it worse?

In spite of your Harvard MBA, the only job you can get is one with the Department of Sewage Treatment-- as a line inspector, which means you really are up that familiar creek without a paddle, except to stir the muck! So nice of you to wear that $1,000 suit. Looks good in, ah, Earth colors. Make 'em shine! http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/ekelig/e010.gif

Okay. New scenario (Like before, you can still reply to the others but specify which)

Okay. The new scenario is...

I have an exam

How can it get worse?

(I know I'm going to regret starting this one, because I really do have exams now, A-levels. Oh well. Come on every one, do your worst)

Pendragon

You have an exam. Now to make it worse.

OK. You spend most of the night studying really hard, hopped up on caffeine, cramming for this exam. Then you walk in next morning only to discover you know all about Calculus, but today was your History exam, and you can remember nothing except equations and theorems from the all-nighter. Panic ensues. The exam is timed, of course, and you stare blankly at the paper for almost all that time. Finally, with just two minutes left, you begin to remember a little, but the exam is more than six pages. Can you feel the cloud of DOOM begin to settle in? http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/a108.gif

I have an exam. This is how it gets worse.

I go into the exam, all cool and relaxed. Another exam has just started so we're trying to be quiet. But I trip over some coats as I go passed and drop my pens making a loud clattering sound. They all turn their heads to stare at me. Blushing, I quickly try to gather them up, before I cause any more trouble. But, the people behind me all trip over me. There's a mass of shrieks and yells as we all become a mass of tangled limbs. The children already doing their exam all simultaneously say "ssssshhhhh". The teachers all rush over to sort us out. While they're untangling us, one of the other students decides to start smoking in the exam. The teachers sort us out and tell us off, and then they make us all sit down quickly, while the others are sniggering. Then, the boy smoking is also sniggering, while taking sneaky puffs of his cigarette when the teachers aren't looking. He takes a deep breath and swallows his cigarette, I'm the nearest person, so I rush to help him, but I trip over and fall right on top of him. Luckily, this impact made him cough up the cigarette. Unfortunately, it landed on the curtains and, in seconds the curtain lit up. We all ran out screaming. The fire-fighters got there an hour late, because they were trying to get my cat out of a tree, so the whole school burns down. Everyone looks at me like it's my fault and the boy that was smoking claimed that I assaulted him and set the school on fire myself, because I was smoking. Just as I'm about to strangle him for lying, the fire-fighters and police show up. I get arrested for assault, attempted murder and arson. I never get to do my exam and, obviously, fail. I get out 50 years later to find my family are all dead and my friends are all married with children and don't want to know me. With no qualifications or home, I die on the streets, alone.

I have an exam. How much worse...?

I take the exam. I pass with flying colours. In fact, I graduate with the highest honours and immediately get courted by all the major corporations. As a businessman, I'm a huge success. Within 10 years, I'm running about 50% of the country's entire economy, making myself the richest man alive in the process. The huddled masses working in my factories resent this, rise up and overhtrow me. I'm executed as an enemy to the people. Those of my family who manage to survive the revolution change their names and deny ever having known me. For centuries to come, my name is listed in every single history book as a right bastard who deserved what he got.

Think about that next time you have to study for an exam.

I have an exam. How can it get worse.

You cheat, get caught, get nervous, barf at your own paper, and spend the rest of your life as a minimum-wage worker with no company perks in a run-down motel cleaning up other people's [ehem...***] messes and contemplating.. If I passed that test.. I wouldn't be here.. So you cry your pathetic life away and kill yourself but much to your dismay... You remain as a ghost.. Constantly getting exsorcised [which I should point out, in this scenario hurts like hell] but never resting, you get excsorcised coz lots of people think it's a turn-off to hear you moaning and crying and ranting to them that they should get proper education...

The new scenario is...

A bad cold is pretty bad....You decide to go to the drugstore to buy some tissues, decongestant and some aspirin. On the way to the drugstore, your car breaks down. You trudge away to the store on foot. It begins to rain, yet the forecast was for clear skies. You figure you can always purchase an umbrella at the store when you finally get there. The rain comes down steadily and turns to sleet. Trudge trudge...ooops, looks like you took a nasty tumble off the curb and cars sweep by though the now very deep puddles and soak you. Bruised and utterly wet you continue the trek (which is uphill, by the way) to the store. After several hours have passed, you arrive at the store.

You go in and quickly gather up everything you need, eager to get out of there and call a taxi to take you home so you can get warm and dry. You make your way to the cash register and plunk your stuff on the counter. The cashier rings up your purchase and the total is $45.09. You reach into your pocket to pay and....find you left your wallet at home.

Awww!

Scenario: I have a bad cold.

You have a bad cold. Every time you cough it hurts deep in your chest,. Your nose is full of concrete snot. Your whole body hurts. And then the stomach flu starts. You can't keep anything down (even your cold medicine). It's the end of the fiscal year at work and your boss will not understand if you call in. All expenses and receivables must be reported (and that's your job!) or heads will roll but you can barely make it out of bed.

It starts to snow at 5 a.m. (very heavily). Unfortunately, you live one county over from the county you work in and the snow where you live is heavier than the snow where your office is. So every one else will be at work and won't buy the snow excuse. The county you live in can't afford to salt the winding country roads but you attempt to drive your car in to work (you figure if you show up puking maybe your boss won't fire you --- she might be sympathetic and send you home). Instead, your stupid car slips on the ice as you go around the bends in the road and you wind up in the ditch. And then you throw up in your car. And then your boss fires you when you're well enough to get back to work.

I'm going on holiday

How can it get worse.

Make it as painfull, ironic and silly as you like.

Go on, I dare you.

(Thankfully, for the first time in a while, this is not something I am actually going to do for another year, so I don't mind how bad you make it :D.

While preparing to get on a plane, the guards decide, "Hey, you look suspicious, I think I'll check you." They empty your bag in the middle of the terminal. All your private possessions are on display. After making you miss your flight, they decide they made a mistake and let you go.You reschedule your flight for one that leaves four hours later. Sit down to read the book you had brought for the plane. Finish the book. Sit there istening to the two children sitting a few seats away start bickering over a toy. Get a headache. Go to buy aspirin, which, come to find out costs ten dollars, Buy a book. You sit back down and read a biography of some obscure person. Finally your plane is boarded,you get on and find out you have the seat between a large man who smells like cheese and a wannabe ladies-man who "accidentally" spills his drink on your lap.

I'm going on holiday, how can it get worse?

[How I miss being online.. Hi people... I miss Mil..:(]

Anyways...

You're going on a holiday, by plane.. The plane passes by the Bermuda Triangle.. which you see is ironically not a triangle but a circle... You are warped into a different dimension wherein you see life if you weren't born.. But thing is... You realize the world is a better place w/o you.. You see your mon happily with your dad who is the owner of Microsoft because Bill Gates turned out to be a bif fat liar and stole your dad's idea... Your siblings are all happy and creepily perfect now that you aren't around.. They also don't have hand me downs from you and are extremely good-looking because you didn't kick any of them while they were babies... The world has world peace[for some inexplicable reason...] and they all have better air because it isn't wasted on a person like you... You cry and in that alternate dimension.. the people get sick of you.. You're warped back to the original world as the sole survivor of passing through the Bermuda Triangle.. because of that they think you're an alien and the Intelligence abducts you. Sadly, you live your life a lonely neutered lab specimen getting probed, shocked and poked with a stick for the rest of your life... All because you wanted to get a break from work.

I notice that you're all concentrating on getting there. What about when I arrive? Have the airport lost my bags? Did I even fly? What if I drove? Or got a boat?
Think outside the box, it's more fun that way :)

11-13-2006, 09:03 AM
Okay, when you do get there, you're in Palawan, Phillipines, you didn't tell your boyfriend you were coming so a spat ensues and you lose your love one, when you want to patch things up, you go back, by boat home [ in this scenario.. home being manila] so you try to go home but a storm comes and you are stuck on ship with a bunch of idiots.. soon, food becomes scarce and you become a cannibal. You eat the last person on boat and you stumble upon the captains' log... In there it writes about you and you realize that the captain loved you... Enough so that he abandoned the boat in search of yout happiness, few days later, you're eating mice and still lost at sea... You try to reach ground but you're tired and hungry... You try to end your life but you're too weak to move.. And the last thing you see is your loved one with another girl in her arms...

Oh, you are in a sticky wicket, no doubt about it!

You are cooking fugu, and you have not learned how to prepare it correctly. All of your dinner guests will shortly be dead of tetrodotoxin poisoning. And all because you couldn't be bothered to learn to prepare the dish correctly, or at least have the puffer fish flesh examined by an expert chef prior to making this oriental delicacy!

Your cooking dinner for some friends when you hear the phone ringing. You are just about done sautee'ing your onions in marsala wine. The phone is ringing, but you have to get this done. It might be one of your guests, you have to get the phone! You try to quickly get the phone, but it is nt on the reciever, the door bell rings just as you are about to say forget the phone. You quickly go to the stove an the onions are now black and the marsala is now tar in the bottom of the pan. It is smokey and stinky and the door bell rings again. You put the pan in the sink, run the water on it and go answer the door. You meet and greet your firends and walk them upstairs. You know they smell the smell, so you spray deordorizer. Your friend starts coughing and now choking...she is allergic to the smell. You try to calm her down and offer her some water, or cortisone cream, as you are trying to be helpful you notice flames coming from your oven...oh no...the duck!

Bluebiird
06-18-2007, 07:06 AM
A very good question. I prefer to come up with them but I don't forbid anyone from making up their own. Why would I? It's not like I could physically stop you anyway. So why be greedy? Besides, it seems a bit wierd coming up with answers to my own scenarios, that's why I stopped doing it and just contented myself with reading everyone's replies.
So, basically, sure, if you've got a scenario feel free, it'll probably keep this tread from drying up when I leave it for ages :).
