Re: Game: Fortunately, Unfortunately Thread
Unfortunately, penguins are the exact opposite color of snow, making them easy to spot out by predators in their natural surroundings.

Fortunately, many predators mistake the penguins for well-dressed Maitre D's, and request to be seated at a very good table.

Fortunately the penguins don't serve penguin special and ask whether the predator would like flavored ice instead.

Unfortunately the predators are much more hungry than that and try to take a bit out of their Maitre D's.

Fortunately, the penguins/maitre d's had been told beforehand to dust themselves with a mixture of red, hot chilli pepper and black pepper, the effect of which is not felt by the penguins but has occasioned a lot of tearing and sneezing fits that will last the whole day for those predators who tried to take a nip.

Unfortunately this measure often provokes predators to even greater degrees of violence out of anger.

Fortunately, penguins know where many free anger management classes are held.

Fortunately, there are state lodges that offer compulsory bed, breakfast and classes to people who, in anger, may overstep their boundaries.

Unfortunatly, one member snapped at said classes, and AK47'ed everyone within a five mile radius
'You can take our lives but you'll never take our freedom!' he screamed.

Fortunately, the state facilities just 5.15 miles from this tragedy were eager to accommodate said member and sent representatives to convey this joyous news and urge him to accept the offer.

Unfortunately it was still really wanted.

Unfortunately he found out just the way to manage his anger, and focused it into a white hot lance of controlled fury. There will be blood.

Unfortunately, we are yet to see how she handles a day when everything goes wrong. Imagine a day where she wakes up late with a hang-over to the sound of her neighbours house being torn down. As she gets out of bed she trips and sprains her ankle and hobbles off to have a bath only to discover that there is no running water in the house, and to crown it off, the news headlines on the telly blares out "Demented arsonist burns down all libraries in <insert where sharley lives>". Forgetting the pain in one foot she rushes back out, lashes out to kick the telly only for her foot to go through the glass and get stuck in the TV's innards causing her to lose balance and come crashing down......
