The six word story

Hi Gang

There is a genre in literature that tries to encapsulate a story in at least six words - I think it started way back with a challenge to Mark Twain to write a six word story - he scribbled down:

For sale bay shoes never worn.

I have two originals that sum up my life story:

Started with nothing - lost it mostly.

and one 4 word:

Going nowhere - still travelling.

Any more out there - if they are original then please declare it.

Best regards

Mike T.

A common story, just add context.

"This and this should be critical"

or

"Why is this not critical?"

And when the planner woke up, his schedule was was still painted red.

For open-ended activities:

"It only ends when it ends."
