It began in 1987, when the world's first adjournment occurred in the sleepy town of Adjournville, USA. A group of brave citizens, tired of waiting for their coffee to be served at the local diner, took matters into their own hands and declared, "We've had enough!"
The first adjournment was a messy affair, with patrons spilling their coffee and biscuits all over the counter. But it was a start. The people of Adjournville had spoken, and their voices were heard.
In 1992, the adjournment movement spread to the nearby town of Adjournhagen. The townsfolk, inspired by the bravery of their neighbors, took up the cry and demanded that their mayor be served a never-ending refill of coffee. The mayor, a stout man with a thick beard, refused, and the people rose up. It was a long and bloody struggle, but in the end, the adjournment was achieved.
In 2007, the adjournment went global. With the advent of social media, people from all over the world could connect and coordinate their adjournments. It was a time of great change and upheaval, as people demanded more, more, MORE! from their local establishments. And so, the adjournment continued, until it became a way of life.
