Six-Word Memoirs - 2/8/2008 10:39:34 AM

Status: offline 		This was featured on NPR yesterday. I found it here: http://www.smithmag.net/sixwords/

The Legend:
Legend has it that Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Last year, SMITH Magazine re-ignited the recountre by asking our readers for their own six-word memoirs. They sent in short life stories in droves, from the bittersweet (“Cursed with cancer, blessed with friends”) and poignant (“I still make coffee for two”) to the inspirational (“Business school? Bah! Pop music? Hurrah”) and hilarious (“I like big butts, can’t lie”).

Others currently featured:

Katrina and Obama equally motivate me.

Three degrees, two jobs, no money.

Objects were closer than they appeared.

Dismantling Protestant Work Ethic. Nearly Finished

Skied uphill. Will again, stronger, wiser.

So, if you care to share, what would your 6-word memoir be?

She said i love you... sigh

i was naughty, She ignored me

she always said she was fine

life alone: it's easier, not better

She claimed me, i am Her's

She saw, She conquered, She came

i didn't know i wasn't happy

words are easy, love takes work

he said he had no limits

She didn't let me wait for train

i thought i could make it...

told a story in six words

These are awesome; I knew the creatives abundant here at CM would post some good stuff. It's interesting to me that some are poignant and some are hilarious. I'm enjoying them all. If anyone would like, you may submit them to the website, linked in my OP.

Keep 'em coming!

Status: offline 		A threesome, YAY!!!  Who's the dude?

No limits?  We'll see about that.

No limits?  That's going to change.

But you did say no limits...

When did i get so old?

i think something went seriously wrong.

No limits means not saying sorry.

Grenade:  Four, Three, Two, BOOM!!!  Oops.

The blue wire... are you sure?

Six words, that's not enough to...

If you're happier with him... Bye!!!

She put out.  He didn't call.

Coffee pot crapped out.  Bad day!!!

Hot woman's profile, old dude's IP.

It was done right, apology unneeded.

No problem, i think it's fun; you should have seen me in the old alliteration thread.


i came, i slept, i'm sorry.

Multiple M's makes a monotonous memoir.

Given enough rope, i hung myself.

Not third leg, atleast a foot.

Gave my freedom, now i'm free.

Confucious say: THIS IS NOT COOKIE!!!
