Three word story is a game in which a story is built by multiple people, who use three words each turn. An example game goes as follows:

Starter: A fat man...

Next: ... walked into a...

Next: ... car and it...

Next: ... was very painful...

I'll start the game off:

(the full story, for those like me who hate to scroll...)

Once upon a time... a young woman wished to be larger than life. So, she went to the magic potions shop. When she got there, a manipulative witch gave the woman the wrong ingredients so that she would brew the love potion. This became the source of misery and the desire for infatuation and understanding that grew greater in her heart until it was all-consuming and slowly drove her to find solace. And then she finally realized that shortcuts didn't exist so the woman explored her conscience and found her potion, then destroyed... little by little every part of her that was visible to the kind people that were then gleefully ignorant of all other people that had unaccomplishable dreams.
