Bad Story Day
A day whose character is bad enough to characterize as a ‘Good Story Day’ of the worst type, one worth elaborating on and learning from, sharing with others for their entertainment, and reminiscing on once enough time that it has hopefully become established as Type 2 Fun and we can look back and laugh at it with wonder and amazement.
Really? Rachael has been locked in a bathroom twice? I remembered locking her into an outhouse in France decades ago, but in Teruel too?
Typically, bad days are ones that descend into chaos, uncomfortable, frightening or dangerous situations when there’s been a script error (a new essential item is needed, for example), a failure to follow the script (behavioral error), unpredictable events, or just bad luck. A few will never become funny in retrospect (to Team Anderson at least) and are destined to remain Type 3 Fun types until the final spin of the wheel.
