"A guy walks into a bar..."
We all know how it starts, but what happens after that? That's completely up to you. This is a 'Start your own scenario' type of meme. Start along with the regular:

Post your character's name, canon, preferences

Set up a scenario

Pretty simple, right? That's because it is. Pick a time frame, if you'd like. Pick a specific city. Pick a specific planet. Want to hang out in The Titty Twister, go right ahead. Mos Eisley Cantina a bit more your speed? Then take a left at the second star and go straight on until morning. Slip in an underage character and sneak around trying to scam drinks. See if someone comes and tosses you out. Try to pick up the hottie at the bar -- or slip something into their drink when they're not looking. Maybe you're the bartender and you're feeling a little chatty while you pour. The possibilities are endless and they all start with someone opening a door and coming in.

The SPACE OPERA Meme

 

► Your character finds him or herself in the pilot’s seat of a giant robot, the bridge of a starship, etc., etc., anything resembling the controls and/or comm center of a spaceworthy vessel. Displays show that the vessel is in an asteroid field, and far in the distance are a pair of binary suns! There is also a spherical space station nearby (please don’t appear in it, but navigate to it to explore it if you’d like). And all comms have been reset to an unfamiliar frequency. Everyone in the meme is on this frequency, though you can change them if you’d like

► If you’re welcome to players you don’t know dropping characters in your vessel with you, please put HITCHHIKERS WELCOME in the subject line. If you’re in a small vessel that can really only hold a few people, put a max number.

► Post with your CHARACTER NAME, FANDOM, VESSEL, and PASSENGERS WELCOME (if applicable) in the subject line, ie “Quattro Bajeena | Zeta Gundam | Hyaku Shiki | Hitchhikers Welcome (Max 2)” or “William Adama | Battlestar Galactica | Galactica | Hitchhikers Welcome.” If you’re dropping in as a passenger, just use CHARACTER NAME, FANDOM, ie “Leia Organa | Star Wars.”

► Please set up where your character is and his/her immediate reaction in your top-level comment!
