Swimmingly Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Arguably the greatest 6-word story of all time is this: For sale: Baby shoes, never worn. It was written by Ernest Hemingway. What do you have? To start, Two lobsters paid for. One eaten. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khyrindor Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I don't know about six words, but the best seven words (arguably) are: "I was just wondering what you were doing here." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketek Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I don't know about six or seven words, and I'm gonna let you finish, but 'it was the cut-flower sound of a man waiting to die' is the most poetic sentence of all time! Of. All. Time! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
