O.K. I've been thinking about this all day. Early this morning I read the OP by Meri333 which I'll link to in a moment. It was the funniest thing I've seen in weeks. Even funnier than Tina Fey. I immediately forwarded it to a few thousand of my closest friends. I knew my wife had received it when I heard peals of laughter coming from her computer room. Early this evening, I got to thinking. We have bunches of creative writers here at DU so why couldn't we play? I mean, what the hell? We have a thread that never dies so why can we not have a story that never ends?
So here's the deal. First read the story at the link here.

I'll start.
When we left off, the Anu'udrian mother ship had just launched lithium fusion missiles at the earth which they assumed, penetrated the atmosphere, destroying the Peacnick earthlings.
What the Anu'udrians who were from the planet Teabaggery had not counted on was the existence of Oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere because nothing like it existed on their planet. As such, the existence of this element had not been considered in their weapon system design. When the lithium fusion missiles encountered Oxygen upon entering Earth's atmosphere, two things happened. First, they caused the entire sky to light up in an effect similar to the Aurora Borealis which Laurie and countless millions of Earthlings like her thought was the most beautiful thing they had ever seen. Second, it bounced the missiles straight back to the Anu'udrian Mother ship which exploded into a Brazillion pieces and, since this happened a long, long time ago, in a Galaxy far, far away, we still observe the aftermath of this historic event. We call it the Persidies Meteor shower.
O.K kids, I know you're bored because you are in the lounge. If you were'nt bored, you'd be doing battle in GD so, compose a paragraph to continue the story and post it.
