Minor Correction: The Game

Go To

Something has happened, but it's hard to decipher what it really was, with all these people saying different things. People are replying to each other, updating the account of the event with seemingly more accurate versions.

How to play: Read the statements of what happened in previous posts, and make a minor correction to it: "Except what really happened was..." or somewhere along that line.

Tip: Make the description long enough so it's easier to go from one correction to another.

"The police officers were eating donuts inside their car parked on the street."

"Well, yes, they were eating in their parked car on the side of the street, except they were eating cookies instead of doughnuts."

Actually, the car they were riding was in the middle of the street.

Except it wasn't a car. It was actually a tandem bicycle.

And they were only eating the cookies because they were low on energy from their trip.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Actually, they were eating the cookies to build up energy for their trip.

They weren't eating cookies, they were eating french fries.

And they weren't just on the road, they were in the drive thru lane for Mc Donalds.

They weren't eating french fries, though; they were buying them to-go to deliver them to their coworkers.

No, not their co-workers. The officers were brothers, and the fries were for their poor old bedridden grandma to cheer her up.

I'd just like to point out that the gentlemen in question weren't actually police officers; they're really more like security guards.

They weren't cops at all, they were just pedestrians in the mall.

But it wasn't a mall. It was a zoo where they were employed.

A petting zoo, and it was their first day on the job.

Actually, only one of them was just starting out. The other one was training him.

Well, really, they were both starting out because they made the petting zoo themselves. One was just more knowledgeable about petting zoos than the other.

Excpet it wasn't really built, it just fell from the sky and they moved it.

Except they didn't move it on their own. They had to get the animals to drag it for them.

Correction: They got the animals and plants to drag it for them.
