What are some examples of super long pointless stories?

A bee went to the doctor. The doctor said, 'You don't look so well.' The bee said, 'I don't feel well. I keep making honey all day long.' The doctor said, 'Well, you are a bee.' The bee replied, 'Yeah, but it's really tiring.' Also, a ghost was feeling lonely so it went to a party. But when it got there, it just passed through the walls and no one could see it. It was really disappointed. So it decided to haunt the party instead. It made some spooky noises and everyone ran away. It was then happy that it got some attention.

Long pointless stories usually have excessive details that don't contribute to the overall meaning. They could involve a lot of unnecessary descriptions of things like the color of every flower in the park when it has no bearing on the so - called 'point' of the story. It's like the storyteller is just rambling without a proper narrative structure.

You can start with a really simple and uninteresting event, like waiting for a kettle to boil. Then you just keep adding unnecessary details. For example, you could describe the color of the kettle, the sound it makes in great detail, how the steam rises slowly and curls in the air. Keep repeating similar details and going off on tangents. For instance, you might start talking about other times you've waited for something to heat up.

A story can be long and pointless if it has no clear plot or purpose. Maybe it just rambles on without any direction or conclusion.

A boy started collecting pebbles. He had thousands of them in his room. He didn't make any art with them, he didn't use them for any games. He just kept piling them up. His room was full of pebbles, and his parents were constantly asking him to get rid of them, but he wouldn't listen. It was a long and pointless story of his pebble - collecting obsession.

A super dark story might involve a family that moves into a new house. Little by little, they notice that things keep disappearing. One day, the youngest child starts talking to an 'imaginary friend'. But it turns out this friend is a malevolent spirit that was once a victim of a murder in the house long ago. The spirit begins to torment the family, driving them to the brink of madness.

One super scary story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe. It's about a man who is driven mad by an old man's 'vulture - like' eye and ends up killing him. Another could be 'The Monkey's Paw'. In this story, a family gets a magical paw that grants wishes but with horrible consequences. And 'The Call of Cthulhu' is also extremely scary, with its Lovecraftian horror of the unknown and powerful, ancient, and malevolent entities.

Some people might be trying to fill an awkward silence or gain attention. They think that by telling a long story, they can hold the spotlight and make others interested in them. Another possibility is that they lack self - awareness and don't understand how their long - windedness affects others.

One reason could be lack of a clear plot. If a story just meanders around without a definite direction or purpose, it tends to be boring. For example, if it's just a list of random events that don't lead to anything, like someone talking about all the things they saw on the street that day without any connection between those things.

You could use it as an exercise in creative editing. Cut it down to make it more concise and meaningful.
