Okay, I am stuck on one writing assignment. I can write it out but I can't do anything without a starter sentence. I have to make a satire (a story that takes the ideas from a real story) of some things. I just need a starting sentence.

the first one is a satire of the Crucible. the second is a parody of Benjamin Franklin's princples. the last one is parody of the "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" speech.

Crucible: IF the trails of life were like that of the Crucible then long ago I would have already declared "More weight".

Roll with mine, guaranteed win.

Okay well you could- oh. Why not use your psychic powers to look into the future at what you wrote in the future?

Give me guide-lined freedom or give me death.

That's what most 'free' countries have. Guide-lined freedom.

Talkin about offing yourself is a guarenteed councilor visit. Not an A though.

Nowadays, mine is appropriate. What are you, 80? Jeez? Fine…

Give me freedom or give me something expensive!

You should be spending more time working on this yourself, and less time begging others to do it for you. Nobody is going to hand you your homework, so log off and get to work.

Fenn's right. With your reputation around here, you're not likely to get any serious response. So yeah, the time wasted asking others could have been well spent on trying to make something up yourself. I believe in you man, you can do it!

Cov has a rep? I want a rep! What's cov's rep?

And mine WAS a serious response. AND it's a starter. You can build off that. Probably.

His rep? It's nothing to be proud of. To many Duckers, Cov is known as 'that guy'. The odd one out, but not in a good way. He brags about his special abillities, yet he doesn't dare give away too much personal information, lest people find out he's actually that 17yr old autistic guy with no friends.
He threatens us on the forums, for he has no balls in the real world, most likely because the cool kids took them from him and squished them before his very eyes. This has enraged him beyond human limits, causing him to nearly exterminate all of mankind. Instead, he inflicts his psychic powers upon his fellow Duckers, in a way that may not destroy them, but sure does annoy them.
He thinks that he is master and commander in his threads. Even though he created them, it does not seem to get through that he does not control them, as he continuously tries to force the Duckers into words they wish not to speak.
So is his reputation, and so does it exceed him, that his fellow men make fun of him as if he were a jester.
Surely, this is not the reputation you desire?

Uh guys, I just am asking for starting sentences. I am not asking much I just can't start 'em myself. So a little help please (and stop the bashing on me, I'm asking seriously for some help).

Opening lines for satires to the following works:
The Crucible: What happens when a village of witches find out one of their own is just a regular guy and… he likes to dance! Oh the wackiness ensues in this winter's broadway hit: The Crucible Night Fever!

Principles of Benjamin Franklin: What happens when a colony of dogs trying to start a new life and are oppressed by the country they came from…but are the cutest things on the face of the planet…wackiness ensues in this winter's hollywood family gem: Benji Frankiln!

"Give me Liberty, or give me Death!" speech: What happens when a drunken guy attending Virginia House of Burgesses wants another drink but is cut off and asked to leave…and who loves to dance…wackiness ensues in this winter's polical comedy romp: Give me Samuel Adams or give me death!

how are those?

Maybe they're a little confused as to what you're asking… I know I am. A starter sentence? Perhaps you can post more of the body of what you want a starter sentence for.

That's just it, I can't write something without the starting sentence. I just need to get this done and fast. (my mom is getting annoying because she won't let it drop)
