[WP] An alien spaceship crash-lands on the set of a popular TV show. Flustered, the aliens offer the star of the show one of their native dishes by way of apology. Unfortunately, they crashed on the set of Kitchen Nightmares, and Gordon Ramsay is pissed.

[WP] Monsters that enter humanity's collective imagination manifest in the real world. You are a secret agent in charge of killing these monsters, and your job has gotten a lot harder recently. On an unrelated note, you hear the terms "SCP" and "Lovecraft" being tossed around a lot these days.

[WP] The nukes fell. You stare down at the wasteland that was once your hometown, thanking your lucky stars for all the lead and asbestos in your apartment's walls, which has shielded you from the radiation. Somehow, your cell phone rings. It's your boss. Je wants you to come into work tomorrow.

[WP] You are a sadistic genie. Your lamp has been passed on to a cashier after your old master, now a beggar, traded it for food. The cashier wishes for you to work his shifts for him, without getting him fired. Now human in form, you start evil-granting unwitting customers' "wishes" for a laugh.

[WP] God doesn't plan events like we think he does. Every so often he goes to his local Major Events store, picks up whatever's on sale, opens it up, and it happens on Earth. In 1917, there was a Buy-One-Get-One-Free on War. Today, God saved up, and the store is having a Liquidation Sale.

[WP] As an alien scout, you are sent to Earth to scan and monitor the intelligent inhabitants of a given planet. As you scan the Earth's surface, the landmasses light up due to human activity... as well as a shape the size of a small country in the middle of the ocean. It appears to be moving.

[WP] You are incapable of feeling fear. This has prompted the powers that be to start messing with you by throwing all manner of horror tropes at you in hopes of getting a reaction without killing you. When the mundane stuff fails, they start getting frustrated... and creative. Now, anything goes.
