World's Shortest Fairy Tale
I've already sent this to a bunch of people because it made me laugh, but I haven't posted much lately, so I'll put it here, too. My dad sent me this forward today:
THE WORLD'S SHORTEST FAIRY TALE
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "Will you marry me?" The girl said, "NO!" And the guy lived happily ever after and went fishing, hunting and played golf a lot and drank beer and farted whenever he wanted.
THE END
Which was pretty funny, I have to admit, but I thought it needed a follow-up, so I wrote my own version:
Th World's Shortest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl, "Will you marry me?" The girl said, "NO!" And the girl lived happily ever after and had intelligent conversations with her friends instead of having to feign interest in ice fishing and car engines, spent money on lavish, spectacular vacations and none on shotgun shells or fishing bait, got to go home and read after a movie date instead of having to listen to some half-educated ape give his malformed opinion on the plot, had nights of dancing and cocktail parties with nobody to apologize to because there was only cheese and crackers for supper.
The End

"Half educated ape"? How dare you! You KNOW I graduated 8th grade 'cuz my diplomat is hangin' on the wall there in the den. I think a full 8 yrs is more than half. I think it's pert near full.
Th World’s Shortest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl, “Will you marry me?” The girl said, "Yes!” And they lived happily ever after and had intelligent conversations with each other because they knew before marrying, that they had similar interests and hobbys. It wasn't necessary to feign interest in anything because they understood that the dating process was to find someone they could share things with and not simply find someone to hook up with."
The End
And to think, I'M usually the cynical one around here
I like Buntz's fairy tale the best.
The World's Shortest Fairy Tale:
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "will you marry me?" The girl said "Maybe." For five years.
I like Buntz's best too. Good job! I'm wondering though is we have a new case of invasion of the body snatcher going on. Buntz a romantic?
I came across your blog by accident and love your entries, particularly the shortest fairy tale one! I am a little new to all this blog stuff but thought I would share the fact that you have a great style of writing. Btw this message comes all the way over from England!! Take care :)
Ginger, I don't really like the new look of your blog. I liked the old way better. But, I think it's fairly obvious that I am afraid of change, so that could be the reason.
Oh, I didn't do this. I didn't mean for it to look like this... I better get in the back end and see what happened.
I hope you are not decorating your house in the near future. Please change the color, it is sooooo ugly!
Well, Trit, if you read this blog at all, you'd know I've already decorated my house in Barbie-skin peach.
once upon a time i went on this webby and read the stories. there gay lol luv yall lv caitixx
Got another one:
Once upon a time, a man asked a woman to marry him. She said no. She lived happily ever after, stayed slim, drank martinis, went out regularly with her girlfriends, always had a clean house, never had to cook and never was farted on. The end.
I didn't make it up, not that i didn't wish i hadn't.
One upon a time a very intelligent 12 years old boy went to the doctor and underwent castration so he would never be subjected to the tyranny of the female sex. He lived a very, very happily ever after.
Buntz has been reading too many romance novels. Get a grip.
Based on my spelling and proofreading abilities it appears I am a half educated ape.
But apes don't get married, so which is the more intelligent species?
once upon a time a feminist, with no sense of humor, just for a change, read a jokey fairy tale and instead of just laughing, got her panties all up in a bunch about wimmins issues, and had a little winge and a moan; she never lived happily ever after because she had no idea how to laugh at anything that didn't correspond to her narrow points of view. Every man who never had to suffer at her tyranical sexism lived happily ever after.
The End.
I like how the male version of this story is simply the protagonist doing what makes him happy without being told not to...
...while the female version involves belittling her non-existant partner for not changing who he is at every step of the way.
what dave said !!!!!!!!!!
Yours would actually be the second shortest fairy tale....but very nicely done
Once upon a time a girl met a boy who fucked her from each side and after that he left her and went to fuck another THE END the girl commit suicide ... the boy after that kept fucking and fucking happily ever after
Anyone here notice that the men's version of the "world's shortest..." is in fact SHORT? Meanwhile the women's version seems to go twice as long to get to the same point? Says it all.
hahahah funny stuffs. Cheese and crackers for supper, lolyum. :D
Your story inspired a short film....

QUESTION:
I'd love to have the girls version be a sequel!
The guy one is funny - the woman one was clearly written by some stuck up b**** who didn;t think it was funny and needed a way to 'get back' and the story. The guy version had fun shenanagans. The girl version was hateful.
