In this game, the first person posts a basic scenario, then the next person has it play out in a way contrary to what one would expect, then suggests his/her own scenario, etc.

...It's better to give examples than explain:

Your crush of several years suddenly texts you in the middle of the night...

It's to hook you up with a friend of hers.

A McDonald's frycook is hired at a world-class restaurant...

And so on.

So, let's start with that McDonald's one.
