There was a post on Imgur today about 6 word stories. True to Hemingway's original ("For Sale. Baby shoes. Never worn.") they were all depressing or disturbing. Examples -
"Dad left. A flag came back."
"It's our fiftieth. Table for one."
"Ever seen chalk outlines that small?"
"Just Married, read the shattered windshield."
"I met my soulmate. She didn't."
"Introduced myself to mother again today."
"The smallest coffins are the heaviest."
"Brought roses home. Keys didn't fit."
"Goodbye, Mission Control. Thanks for trying."
There were one or two that were more thought provoking, like:
"Voyager still transmitted. The Earth didn't."
"I just saw my reflection blink."
But still pretty dour stuff.
So I chimed in with some of my own I came up with on the fly:
"Hold my beer and watch this!"
"But, ma'am, that isn't my rutabaga."
"I can't stop painting this duck!"
"CTRL Z! ESC! ESC! ALT F4!"
Somebody else even spoiled The Big Lebowski with his:
"Bunny wasn't kidnapped. The dude abides."
And of course, the inevitable -
"Shreck is love. Shreck is life."
You got some? They can be morose or silly or whatever.
