Once upon a time there were two boys named Patrick and Sponge Bob. They were walking in a walking park. They saw a museum that said “Free.” They looked up into the sky and saw a flying pink bear with steel wings. They said, “Hey Pinky, get down from here!” Then Pinky flies down and says, “Hi. Have you ever heard of opposite day?” Patrick said, “yeah.” Then Pinky tells them all about opposite day. “When is opposite day?” “Opposite day is February 6th.” And they all went to Pinky’s cave.

Once upon a time, there were seven penguins. They lived in an abandoned building in a refrigerator. They lived on a different planet. They were very hungry and they didn’t know how to get to the North Pole to get food. They planned to hitchhike on an airplane to get to the North Pole. They put on hats and faces and coats and stacked on top of each other to look like humans. They didn’t have Plutonian passports to get to Earth, so they couldn’t get on the plane. So they jumped into suitcases. They got to the North Pole, and Santa gave them food.
