Got xoot?
We haven't had one of these in a while, so I decided to make one. I start the story, you add to it. You can add a word, a phrase, a sentence, or a short paragraph.

Please put your addition in brackets, and the rest of the story in parentheses.
Example:
(Once upon a time)[there was a farmer named Joe Spiros. He had an awful temper.]

[Once upon a time]
 
He was japanese.
He was asked to do potatoes.
He took all the potatoes from the field because he was a hard worker.
He can't deliver the potatoes to the market because it was to difficult to see which are the little ones and the big ones.

['Take back the potatoes' he thought, 'excel yourself' he screamed to himself... then a defining, lucid thought struck... 'they want...' he stuttured, trying to connect his mental state to his physical ability to communicate, 'they want..., rice!'...]

'Take back the potatoes' he thought, 'excel yourself' he screamed to himself... then a defining, lucid thought struck... 'they want...' he stuttured, trying to connect his mental state to his physical ability to communicate, 'they want..., rice!'...

In the end it always came down to rice, he thought to himself, kicking at the mud. There just wasn't room in Japan for potatoes, and there wasn't room for a saki-smashed potato farmer like him.
The snow was falling steadily now, and the potatoes were calling from their sack, taunting his jangled nerves.
And then, as he was making his way up the path, he heard a metallic sound somewhere behind him...
 
well actually it was the sound of a jet airplane. and he suddenly realized what he must do. He must leave Japan and go to america. to Idaho, where the world's biggest potatoes are grown potatoes so big he wouldn't ned to tell the differnce between the big and little ones. and the sun would be brighter so he could see which ones were rotten and which ones people could eat. and so he left his family, who were convinced he was crazy, and headed out across the sea on a boat.
 
While on the boat he met this other crazy malaysian girl who had the same passion for potatoes as he had! They realized they had so much in common! THey had both been laughed at! they had both been called insane MOFOs and they were both going to idaho to be potato farmers.....they only thing they disagreed on was how to properly make potatoes au gratin :)p)
 
he showed her the way to make it with betty crocker while she did it from scratch! a big brawl started to occur and within hours, the two had a cook-off between the Japanese "Lean Mean Betty Crocker Makin Machine" Dude and the Malysian "From Scratch" Girl! Oh what a cook-off this would be!
