What is a sentence that makes you predict the rest of the story?

vis4valentine@lemmy.ml to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 66 points –

I was thinking about sentences that can tell the entire story on their own. I have 2 common examples:

  • So, I started to play WOW
  • My husband was 20 older than me

I can already tell how is gonna develop and end. What other sentences you know that have this effect?
