- that it's the only path to wisdom endorsed by my personal life coach, who must be the wisest of all the life coaches, because I'm paying him a lot of money.
- When I ran out of money my life coach gave me a credit plan with an adjustable interest rate. I had almost discovered what my real problem was when I ran out of dough. I asked
- my life coach if he could give me one last piece of advice for free, otherwise I'd surely perish penniless and problem-ridden. He submitted, and that's when I discovered that I
- was a character in a FoldingStory. My life ambition would change to the fates many writers directing me in their mecurial ways. Suddenly, I was riding a horse.
- The horse was a magic pony with big apple-like wingies and it jumped and leaped every so high! Then it got hungry and Chaz watched uselessly as it started grazing on story folds!
- Det. Manatee, who realised his stories where being eaten by My Little Pony, decided it was time for some action. But the magic equine was too big, so he called on
- Secret Agent Michael Scarn for some timely equicide. Manatee cheered as he unsheathed his anti-charm, XR-20 dagger. My Little Pony countered by fluttering her eyelashes, but Scarn
- was umimpressed by Stella's equine charms preferring thoroughbreds, so Scarn unholstered his Donkey-strength X100 TASER. Meanwhile Manatee shuffled towards us with his dagger.
- But both Scarn and Manatee were stopped by a newly deputized TSA agent on steroids. They were hastily stripped of all crime-fighting gadgetry. The terrorists had already won.

Well, that's rather a nice Story within a Story. It's like the house of mirrors.

Has there ever been a more OP gun than the Farsight? It can probably handle some ponies.

Wow, I made a reference about something I didn't know existed at the time. In fact, I don't remember anything about writing that fold at all. Either I'm Theseus' ship personified or I don't know what.
