Fortunately, the wargs came back and ate every one on middle earth and started a dictatorship.

Unfortunately, meanwhile the Serious Cat, the flat Morgo-Yak, Johnny the Stinky Balrog, Bob the Troll, the alien-eating dog, and Mount Zoom were all merging into one, the One Running Gag to Rule Them All! Wahahahahahahahahah!

Fortunately, Mount Zoom got a flat tire, and since all the other running jokes were riding on Mount Zoom, they had to wait until it was fixed.

Unfortunately, the fixing didn't take very long.

Fortunately they saw the light and realized that being the ultimate running gag to Rule the Rule them All was not the right thing to do. So, they all changed their old habits and got new identities.

Unfortunately the Morgo-Yak was wearing his poker glasses at the time and he didn't see any light

Fortunately, Mount Zoom ran over him when its flat tire was repaired.

Unfortunately that did not kill him.

Fortunately, he was crippled for life.

Wait... that sounds sick...

Unfortunately he had some Orc alcohol with healing powers and managed to return and attack the world

Fortunately, he randomly had a heart attack and died.

Unfortunately, he was reanimated as the Zombie Flat Morgo-Yak!

Fortunately, as a zombie he came to live in the Barrow-Downs and he didn't trouble anyone else.

unfortunately, the barrow-downs troubled him!

Fortunately, he calmed down after he ate Gil-Galad.

Unfortunately Gil-galad was trained by Chuck Norrod Felagund and fought his way out of Morgo-Yak's stomach.

Fortunately, by the time he did so, Morgo-Yak had already grown too fat on Barrow Down's food to even make a move.

Unfortunately the Wights grew concerned because of the size of the Morgo-Yak and started leaving the Downs and settling in the Tower Hills

Fortunately, we were quite welcome there.

Unfortunately, the air, which resembled thick green slime, did not agree with us, and we were not amused (no, we were not, my love).

Fortunately, the Morgo-Yak exploded from eating too much, allowing us to return to the Downs in peace.

Unfortunately, the clean up operation was long and disgusting.

Fortunately, once all was done everyone was happy

Unfortunately, the Dragon came!

Fortunately, it was a wee little cutesy pink dragon with lavender spots that hosted a marshmellow roasting party on the beach.

Unfortunately, it was Smaug in disguise.

Fortunately, Smaug brought Trogdor and Burninator and they BURNINATED Lake-Town together

Unfortunately this didn't help the Laketown economy.

Fortunately, an economist came and told them how to fix it.

Unfortunately, before he could finish telling them, Smaug ate him.

fortunately, the people had already rebuilt new-lake-town

unfortunately they built it using cheap materials and the topwn started to slowly sink in the water

Fortunaly, the Lake-Towners liked living underwater much more than above water.

Unfortunately they didn't have gills.

No, but fortunaly, they had long straws.

Unfortunately toxic waste from the mines in Erebor made the lake toxic, and the lake men had to leave

Fortunately they won a archery competition, and the prize was a $5000 (middle earth dollars) discount from U-Haul.

Unfortunately, Gollum stole the cash

Fortunately, Aragorn got it back for them.

Unfortunately, it was too late and the town sank into the lake...

fortunately, they built another one!

unfortunately, that also sank into the lake

fortunately, they build a fourth one!

unfortunately, that set on fire, fell down, thenk sank into the lake

fortunately, they built a fufth one and that fifth one held strong!

unfortunately, it is up to someone else to think of a fortunately
