Another Story for Another Time: Difference between revisions

----

* ''[[Artemis Fowl]]'': "...but that's another story" becomes something of a catchphrase for the first book's narrator. Most of these stories are eventually told as sideplots in books 2 and 3.

* ''[[The Neverending Story]]'' ends many of its chapters with a reference to what happened to a side character who had been important in the chapter, but "that is another story and will be told another time."

* Often happens on ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'', usually refering to events in future episodes. Subverted in one episode when Older Ted says this of a security guard and his band, then decides that he'll probably never get to it and gives the Cliff Notes version ("They had one song, it didn't suck, end of story.")

* ''[[Due South]]'' used to use a variant a lot, with Fraser going "...But that's not important, what ''is'' important..."

* ''[[Dungeons and& Dragons]]'' module [[DA 1]] ''Adventures in Blackmoor''. The DM Background section is written like someone telling a story. At one point it starts describing the destruction of Blackmoor, but then says "But of the sinking of that fabled land - another time! Today, we speak of other things."

* In "Homer's Barbershop Quartet" from ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', Bart and Lisa still have questions after Homer finishes his tale of a [[Beatles]]-like career.
