DISCLAIMER: Obviously, I do not own Gulliver's Travels, Pokemon, Yahoo or Coca-Cola. I have no connection to Jonathan Swift. Neither do I own the failed Minnesota Grad Standards although I reserve the right to make fun of them...

Once upon a 2003 there was a very modern high-tech dude named Gulliver. One day he was flying his rocket around space when he crashed into a planet full of little people. "Whoops. I just accidentally destroyed a whole civilization of little people. Oh well."
Then he fixed his rocket and flew some more until he got to a planet full of giant aliens. Oooooh scary!
He freaked out and flew far far away and then BAM! CRASH! He ran into the horrible Floating Island of the Grad Standards! They flew around, never getting out, they just stayed cooped up in their little planet doing paperwork and collecting Brain Taxes, so that whoever didn't pay the Brain Taxes wouldn't pass high school.
In a valiant escape from that dreadful place, Gulliver jumped off the Island of the Grad Standards and went down splat! in the woods. Fortunately, a troop of Girl Scouts picked him up, gave him some cookies, and gave him directions to the local high school. Gulliver walked in but everybody was just doing Grad Standards. "That's no fun. I'm going to get outta here."
Then he went to the Land of Immortality. "What do you have to give to us?" asked the receptionist of Immortality.
"I thought it was free!" said Gulliver.
"No! You got to read the fine print!"
Gulliver pulled out something from his pocket. "Well, here is my little brother's rare Pokemon card..."
"Oh! Gimmegimme!" The receptionist took the card and handed him a can of Coca Cola.
"What? I thought you were giving me Immortality."
"Of course I am! I'm taking your picture to be put in a Coca-Cola ad. Then you will be immortal!"
"What a ripoff!" said Gulliver. "Screw that! I'm gonna catch the next space ship and go home!"
But he forgot he already WAS back on earth. So the space ship took him through a worm hole in time and he ended up in 1960s land. He joined a commune called the Hippies. They were all nice and cooperated and were very peaceful and except for their occasional drug use, they were very perfect. They avoided another group of people called the Yahoos who were very mean, always fighting over computers and stalking people over the Internet.
Gulliver wanted to stay with the Hippies but one day they caught him talking on MSN to some very aggressive Yahoo girls that he had met in a chatroom. "You're not from 1963! We're banishing you back to 2003 where you came from!" The hippies sent him back to modern-day Earth where he is very happy now.
The End!
