Times have changed, chatting with friends on
Facebook, rather than face-to-face, is the in-thing. It is not far off, when
stories will start with “once upon a timeline”. Here, a list of childhood
stories re-written for the once upon a timeline generation.
The Thirsty Crow
Once upon a timeline, there lived a crow. One
day he was thirsty, he saw a pot full of water in a friend's friend’s profile.
However, he could not drink it because the images were protected. So the crow
went ahead and liked all the post on the friend's friend’s timeline and later
messaged him for water, the friend's friend shared it with the crow.
Moral: If anybody holds
your lifeline, like all that is there in their Facebook timeline :p
Hare and Tortoise
Once upon a timeline, a
tortoise and rabbit had a race on whose page will have maximum likes one year
later. After one year, the tortoise had more likes on his page, because the
rabbits mating season lasts nine months.
Moral: If you are busy ******* around, it does not matter whether
you are Mallya or a rabbit, you are bound to lose :p.
The Cap Seller and The Monkeys
Once upon a time line, a businessman
had a problem of lot of monkey’s posting spam on his page. He could not get rid
of them. Then he remembered the trick of the cap seller dropping his hat. He
copied the same idea and un-liked his own page, the moneys were smarter, they
took over the page and blocked him out.
Moral: Just because someone is monkeying around, it does not mean
that they don’t upgrade their knowledge :p
The Shepherd Who Cried Wolf Wolf
Once upon a timeline,
there was a guy who had a laptop with dongle. He used to upload a lot of pictures
on his Facebook account and annoyingly tag all his friends. One day, after
having lunch at a restaurant, he realized that he had lost his wallet.
Immediately, he tagged his picture with a request to help him out. All his
friends thought it was a usual tag and ignored it. He had to pledge his
valuables and pay the bill.
Moral:- Don’t tag anybody without a reason because when you tag with
one people will ignore it.

stories to be re-written with such obnoxious morals, feel free to contact me :p
