What is your own six-word memoir?

Tried my best, with mixed results.

Misunderstood by many, loved by few.

I didn’t write these myself (did translate them, though ;-)), but the Dutch “NightWriters” coined a few six-word stories (not exactly memoirs) inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”

“This is our secret”, father said.

Growing fucking birth-giving raising resting dieing

The rest was just a life.

Honey, it is not your fault.

Six words were enough for him.

“Yeah,” she said, “yeah, yeah, yeeeeeeaaah!”

That is not your father, Adolf.

She said no. I heard yes.

Look, an airplane! Oh my God.

I was lost, but now found.

Every day is a potential adventure

LIve, love, laugh, smile, and hug.

Tried to flee, learned to stay.

Often loved too many too much.

i came, i saw, the end

Pretty awesome from time to time.

Ran with scissors, cut nothing out.

Less is more…but not always.

Why are you licking my cat?

Still waiting for conditions to improve.

i thought she was already 17

Great worker, wonderful freind, outstanding lover

Sorry you had to see that.

Question: What am I doing here?

Loved and lost, twice, oh well.

…one more fry won’t kill me.

I’d rather be spooning or fondue-ing.

Legacy left of love and lurve.

Money is great, friends are better.

That was quick.

Enjoyed today while waiting on someday.

Why not? You only live once!

Ugly duck is all grown up… ;)

If the glove doesnt fit, you must acquit

Good one, but that’s 8 words, ha ha!

May the force be with you

ok, so I’m giving you 7 words, but here goes, credit Ben & Jerry :

“If it’s not fun, why do it?”

@mcbealer – Wasn’t that a quote from Jerry Garcia, not Ben and Jerry?

nope

Learned to express himself. A lot.

@mcbealer – My bad.

@ brownlemur ~ no worries

@brownlemur Maybe you were thinking cherry Garcia? Just kidding, ha ha!

I gave it all I had.

still my best wasn’t good enough

It all ends the same way.

game over, please insert coin

Good intentions are not always enough

Please close the door behind you!

Always under-promise and over-deliver

The check is in the mail…..

Eat freely and laugh more often

Overcoming with God, humor and chocolate.
